Policy Templates, Versioning, and AI Drafting Tied to Controls
Fintra ships a policy library mapped to the control set, versions every edit, tracks employee attestations, and can AI-draft a policy per control - so your documented information matches the controls you actually operate.
A policy library that maps to your controls
Auditors do not just want a policy PDF - they want the policy to correspond to a control that operates and to evidence that people acknowledged it. Fintra keeps the policy set and the control library in one place, so each policy is anchored to the controls it governs rather than living in a disconnected drive folder.
| Policy | Governs | Typical frameworks |
|---|---|---|
| Information Security Policy | Program scope, roles, governance | SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI Req 12 |
| Access Control Policy | Provisioning, MFA, least privilege | SOC 2 CC6, ISO A.5.15, HIPAA |
| Change Management Policy | Reviewed, tested, approved changes | SOC 2 CC8, PCI Req 6 |
| Incident Response Plan | Detect, respond, notify | SOC 2 CC7, NIST CSF Respond |
| Data Retention & Privacy | Retention, deletion, subject rights | GDPR, CCPA |
Versioning and attestations
- Every edit is versioned, so you can show an auditor exactly what the policy said during the audit period.
- Publish a version and request workforce attestations; track who acknowledged, when, and which version.
- Review cadences flag policies that are due, so nothing silently goes stale between audits.
- Attestation status rolls up as evidence against the governance and training controls.
AI-drafted policies, per control
For each control, Fintra can draft a starting policy that references the control objective, the evidence it expects, and your organization details. It is a first draft to accelerate a human author - not an auto-approved document. A person still reviews, edits, and publishes.
How AI drafting works
- 1
Pick the control or gap
Select a control with no policy, or a policy that needs a rewrite for a new scope.
- 2
Generate a draft
The drafter composes policy text grounded in the control objective and its evidence requirements.
- 3
Review and edit
A human owner revises the draft - AI drafts, humans approve, the same principle used across Fintra.
- 4
Publish and attest
Publish a version and collect attestations; the acknowledgement trail becomes evidence.
How a policy becomes evidence
A policy on its own proves little; what an auditor wants is a policy that maps to an operating control and evidence that people acknowledged it. Because the library, controls, and attestations live in one place, a published, attested policy rolls up directly as evidence against the governance and training controls it supports.
- The published version supplies the point-in-time policy text for the audit period.
- Attestations supply proof the workforce acknowledged that version.
- The control mapping shows which frameworks the policy helps satisfy - collect once, count everywhere.
Frequently asked questions
Does the AI policy generator work out of the box?
The library, versioning, and attestations work immediately. AI drafting specifically requires a configured LLM provider key; without one, the drafter returns labeled mock output so you can see the workflow. Once a provider key is set, drafts are generated for real - and always reviewed by a human before publishing.
Are the policy templates mapped to controls or standalone documents?
Mapped. Each policy is anchored to the controls it governs in the canonical library, so a policy is not a floating PDF - its attestation status and coverage roll up as evidence against governance and training controls.
Can I prove which policy version was in effect during an audit period?
Yes. Every edit is versioned, and attestations record which version each person acknowledged and when. That gives an auditor the point-in-time policy text plus the acknowledgement trail for the observation window.
Does this replace my auditor or assessor?
No. Fintra is the control, policy, and evidence layer that keeps your program continuously audit-ready and cuts preparation from weeks to days. The audit, certification, or attestation itself is still performed by an independent, qualified auditor, assessor, or authorizing body - Fintra never issues certifications.
