How Monitoring Works
Learn how Sprinto’s Monitoring dashboard works behind the scenes to help you track, evaluate, and fix compliance checks in real time.
What is Monitoring
Monitoring in Sprinto helps you track the health and compliance of automated and workflow-based checks across your organisation. These checks are linked to entities like systems, staff, or controls, and can be either integration-driven or manually managed.
It gives you real-time visibility into:
Which checks are passing
Which ones need your attention
How tasks are performing at a granular level
How does it work
Monitoring works through a combination of integrations, workflows, and compliance logic. Here's a step-by-step breakdown:
Step 1: Access Monitoring
Log in to your Sprinto dashboard.
From the left navigation pane, go to Monitoring.
You’ll land on the Active Checks tab by default.
You can toggle between three tabs:
Active Checks: Running checks with live data.
Available Checks: Checks you can activate.
Disabled Checks: Inactive or manually turned-off checks.
Step 2: View Summary and Health Metrics
At the top of the Monitoring page, you’ll see a summary bar that gives you a high-level view of your compliance health:
Active checks: Number of monitors currently in use.
Passing checks: Monitors where all tasks are passing.
Checks requiring attention: Checks with at least one failing, due, or critical task.
Integrations: Total integrations powering your automated checks.
Step 3: Review and Filter Checks
The Monitoring table lists every check in your workspace, along with:
Type: Automated or Workflow
Entity: The resource being monitored
Provider: AWS, GitHub, Azure, etc.
Area: People, Infrastructure, Access, etc.
Task status: Visual indicators for Passed, Due, Failing, Critical
You can apply filters across tabs to drill down based on:
Framework
Control
Area
Task status
Owner
Provider
Check type
Step 4: Investigate a Check
Click View & Fix or View Details to open a check.
This gives you:
A breakdown of entity-level performance
A health summary for the check
Frameworks or controls it maps to
A view of the tasks contributing to its status
If it’s a workflow check, you’ll see setup instructions and configuration options in a side drawer.
Step 5: Create or Enable Checks
From the Monitoring page, you can:
Create checks from templates
Add custom checks with full configuration
Bulk upload checks using a CSV
Automated checks activate automatically once the required integrations are in place.
What happens next?
Sprinto evaluates each check at regular intervals or based on the workflow frequency you define. It keeps track of compliance status and flags any check where tasks are due, failing, or critical.
All of this helps you:
Stay on top of compliance without digging through multiple systems
Quickly identify gaps
Take action directly from the Monitoring dashboard
