- Click Generate API key (if keys already exist, the button is in the upper right corner).
- In the modal, optionally enter a name and description for the key; the key is then generated. Copy it.
- Select the key, click the actions button and select Edit (confirm the edit).
- Under API Setting Permissions, enable only the read permissions Safeguard needs and save. Leave message signature disabled unless Safeguard is configured with the secret key.

Frameworks
Safeguard's automated tests read Detectify and map to the controls below. When a test passes, the result is evidence toward each control it maps to, in every framework listed. It is evidence toward a control, not proof that the control is met on its own.
| Framework | Evidence | Controls | Tests |
|---|---|---|---|
| SOC2 | Automated tests | CC7.1 | 3 |
| ISO/IEC 27001 | Automated tests | A.8.8 | 3 |
| HIPAA Security Rule | Automated tests | 164.308(a)(1) | 3 |
| PCI DSS | Automated tests | 6.3.3, 11.3.1 | 3 |
| NIST CSF 2.0 | Automated tests | ID.RA-01, ID.RA-06 | 3 |
These tests are switched on per workspace by the Safeguard team.
