Configure manual workflow checks in Sprinto to collect device compliance evidence when MDM tools are not used.
If your staff devices are not monitored via Dr. Sprinto or a supported third-party MDM tool, you can still ensure compliance by configuring manual workflow checks. These checks allow your team to periodically upload evidence from unmanaged devices—such as BYOD laptops or contractor endpoints—and validate them against your compliance controls.
Ensure that:
You are logged in to the Sprinto admin portal.
You have a list of device compliance checks that are required for your framework (e.g. OS version, encryption, antivirus, etc.).
You’ve identified who will be responsible for uploading and reviewing evidence.
Go to Data Library > Staff Devices > Overview.
Click Set up manual monitoring.
Choose from the list of predefined device checks, or click Create your own check.
You can create:
Single evidence upload checks – Ideal for one-time submissions.
Bulk upload workflow checks – Ideal for adding checks in bulk.
