Purpose
1. Automate real-time monitoring of IT systems to ensure compliance with regulatory, security, and company-specific standards in aeronautical engineering environments.
2. Proactively detect, log, and respond to policy violations, misconfigurations, unauthorized access, and system anomalies in critical IT infrastructure.
3. Streamline audit preparations and evidence collection for regulatory agencies (FAA, EASA, ISO 27001, etc.) and internal compliance teams.
4. Integrate seamless alerting, documentation, and ticket creation for compliance incidents, with escalation for unresolved issues.
5. Maintain continuous data integrity, confidentiality, and traceability of all IT system processes within aeronautical engineering operations.
6. Generate periodic compliance reports for management, executives, and regulatory bodies.
Trigger Conditions
1. Scheduled compliance scans (hourly, daily, weekly).
2. Detection of unauthorized account access or privilege escalation.
3. Changes in configuration or permissions on critical systems.
4. Receipt of external audit findings or vulnerability disclosures.
5. Failed login attempts exceeding thresholds.
6. Detection of unpatched or non-compliant software/hardware assets.
7. User onboarding/offboarding in sensitive IT environments.
8. Introduction of new regulatory standards or policies.
9. Security incident or breach notification.
10. Manual compliance check initiation by administrator.
