Set Up Policy Monitoring Checks

Set up recurring policy monitoring checks in Sprinto to ensure timely reviews, acknowledgements, and compliance tracking.

Use policy checks in the Monitoring tab to track ongoing compliance, assign responsibilities, and ensure timely reviews and acknowledgements.

Sprinto’s monitoring system allows you to define recurring checks related to your policies—such as “Ensure policy is acknowledged quarterly” or “Review encryption policy every 6 months”. These checks can be linked to policies, procedures, or compliance obligations.
