# Manage a Control

Once a control is created in Sprinto, you can manage it to keep its details, linked checks, and framework mappings accurate. Managing controls ensures they remain relevant to your compliance programme and aligned with your organisation’s operational requirements.

### Map or Unmap Checks

1. Log in to the Sprinto dashboard and navigate to **Compliance > Controls**.
2. Locate the control you want to manage in the **Enabled** or **Disabled** section and click its name.

4. To unmap a check, deselect it from the **Mapped Checks** list.
