Review Violated Rules
Sprinto surfaces the specific governance or compliance rule associated with each violation.
Examples may include:
Detect PII in user input and output
Detect PHI in user input and output
Detect legal or contractual information in user input and output
These detections help organisations identify unsafe or non-compliant AI usage.
Review Associated Users
Each violation is mapped to the associated user activity.
The Violated by column helps organisations:
Identify users involved in the activity
Investigate governance concerns
Review risky usage patterns
Track repeated policy violations
This improves accountability and governance visibility.
Review Associated AI Systems
Violations are also mapped to the related AI systems.
This helps organisations:
Identify risky AI systems
Review governance posture
Prioritise governance reviews
Assess AI-related operational risks
The AI system association helps connect violations with governance workflows such as:
Risk assessments
Due diligence reviews
Findings and remediation
Governance monitoring
Severity Levels
Sprinto classifies violations using severity levels.
