What it is

RiskWatch Policy Management centralizes policy authoring, approval, distribution, attestation and review. A WYSIWYG editor and a library of more than 50 templates support drafting, with clause-level mappings. Policies can use single- or multi-level approvals, automatic version numbering, redlines and side-by-side version comparisons. Recipients can acknowledge policies, complete configurable comprehension quizzes and provide timestamped digital signatures; reminders and escalation address overdue attestations. Reports track acknowledgments by policy, recipient, version and framework, with PDF and Excel export. Listed mappings include ISO 27001, ISO 27002, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, NIST 800-53, GDPR, SOX and others; custom mappings are available on request. Deployment options include cloud, on-premise and hybrid, with air-gapped on-premise instances available as a quoted option. RiskWatch says it encrypts data in transit and at rest, segments data by tenant, and supports SAML 2.0 SSO and MFA. Platforms listed include Android, iOS, web, API and self-hosted. Pricing is on request, and a 7-day trial is listed.
