Be part of the movement driving real change in IT compliance and assurance.
Why Compliance Needs Change
Compliance is becoming an increasingly complex, costly, and inefficient. Organizations face hundreds of evolving regulations, yet traditional compliance methods rely on manual processes, fragmented frameworks, and point-in-time audits–leading to redundancy, higher risk, and wasted resources.
It's time for compliance automation to reduce manual work, increase efficiency, and align security with compliance.

Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) is leading the Compliance Automation Revolution (CAR) to transform how the industry approaches compliance , security, and regulatory alignment.

Compliance Automation Revolution isn't just a CSA
initiative—it's our collective response to a challenge that
affects everyone. The time for incremental improvements has

actually drives security improvements without breaking the
bank—or our spirits.

Coalfire’s long history in compliance and assessment reveals a critical truth: the existing compliance methods are not sustainable. The endless cycle of manual mapping, evidence gathering and manual validation is burdensome, ineffective, and inefficient. The Compliance Automation Revolution offers the essential shift to a harmonized, automated, and continuous approach, allowing organizations to escape the challenges of the past and focus on driving business value through risk mitigation, security alignment and faster access to new regulated markets. Coalfire is excited to apply our compliance expertise along with our experience in control harmonization and automation to help create a path to simplifying compliance and continuous assurance.
