One question we often get is about our name. What is AuditCue? How did we land on it? Why not Audit Cube, or Audit Queue, or something else? AuditCue stands for something specific -
Audit - an evaluation of the quality or standard of something, such as financial records or compliance to regulations
Cue - A call to action, or a signal that requires a response
Putting it together, AuditCue calibrates, guides and streamlines all actions that are a part of your audit lifecycle.
Reimagine how risks, audits & controls work together. Auditing is not a check-the-box activity, it is the guardrail that helps you build & run a solid business.
We don't believe in check-the-box compliance. We believe that the commoditisation of certifications where anyone can refer to themselves as "X standard or framework certified" is bad for the industry. Certification & compliance is certainly not a proxy for security, but namesake compliance is even worse. We want to equip our customers to build a robust risk program that allows them to implement controls, monitor performance & respond to gaps, if they occur.
That's what AuditCue is all about. We build for the long term, and are lucky to have investors, early team members and customers who believe in our product and goal.
Emphatically, no. We're a solution that enables auditees & auditors to work better together. We have a network of trusted auditors, advisory firms, CPAs and vCISOs who're valued partners and we're constantly adding more. You can leverage them or continue with your current partners, we are happy to support your choice.
No, we are not an accreditation body. Our network of trusted accreditation partners will support your certification, if you choose. We have a library of resources and support your journey all the way, from your initial certification to ongoing recertification audits.
We firmly believe that although automation is an enabler, an auditor certifies you as compliant. In other words, if you're looking for a magic pill for security & compliance, it doesn't exist. We have an open API architecture that will integrate with all your applications, but 100% automation is a myth in audits & compliance.
Thanks for asking this! We're built with security front & foremost. That extends to our engineering mindset, our development practices, security audits, pen tests, and a lot of other things we do to stay on our toes. In the words of the Andy Grove, the founder of Intel, "Only The Paranoid Survive."
Cross-compliance is built into the heart of the AuditCue platform. We make it simple to reuse controls, evidence, audit artefacts, organisational policies and workflows across multiple frameworks. Complex regulations and their compliance has never been so straightforward.
