Create and Manage Workflow Checks

Learn how to create, configure, and manage workflow checks in the Vulnerabilities section of Sprinto for manual evidence tracking and compliance.

Workflow checks help you stay compliant with security frameworks when vulnerabilities cannot be automatically tracked through integrations. These checks act as manual reminders to perform regular actions—such as running scans, reviewing code, or verifying third-party libraries—and require evidence submission to be marked as complete.

You can use either predefined checks available in Sprinto or create your own custom checks.

Before You Begin

Ensure that:

• You are logged in as an administrator.

• Your vulnerability monitoring source is not integrated, or you need to track additional compliance actions manually.

• You have identified which controls or processes require periodic verification.
