Evidence & Compliance
Create audit-ready proof from access reviews, findings, approvals, remediation actions, and validation results, as the work runs, not after the auditor calls.
Audit prep is expensive when evidence reconstruction is the plan.
Most organizations build their audit evidence package after the fact. Teams pull screenshots, export reports, write narrative summaries, and spend weeks assembling a picture that should already exist as structured artifacts from the work itself. Nuxari eliminates that reconstruction cost by capturing evidence at the moment each governance action executes, hashed, timestamped, and mapped to the control objectives it satisfies.
What it does
Evidence Packages
Every workflow execution produces a structured evidence bundle: finding, approval, action, validation result, and control mapping, assembled automatically.
- ·SHA-256 hashed event records
- ·Timestamped at point of execution
- ·Control-objective mapping built in
- ·Exportable as PDF or JSON bundle
Immutable Audit Log
Every governance action is appended to an immutable audit chain. Entries cannot be modified after creation, providing a tamper-evident record of what happened and when.
- ·Append-only event log per organization
- ·Tamper detection on log integrity
- ·Full event payload captured at execution
- ·Queryable by date, actor, event type, and resource
Control Pack Integration
Control packs evaluate your environment against defined control objectives and generate findings. Each finding and its resolution becomes part of the evidence record for that control.
- ·Pre-built control packs for identity, access, cloud, and SaaS
- ·Control-to-finding-to-evidence chain maintained automatically
- ·Exception tracking with justification and approver record
- ·Custom control authoring supported
Approval Evidence
Every approval is captured as a structured record: who approved, when, what scope was authorized, and which authorization policy applied.
- ·Approver identity, role, and timestamp
- ·Scope of authorization clearly defined
- ·Multi-level approval chains fully recorded
- ·Approval receipt included in downstream evidence bundles
Remediation Evidence
Remediation actions generate their own evidence chain: pre-action snapshot, execution log, validation result, and final outcome record.
- ·Pre and post state comparison for reversible actions
- ·Execution log with per-step status
- ·Validation result linked to original finding
- ·Closed-finding evidence record with resolution summary
Exception Tracking
When a finding is accepted as a risk exception rather than remediated, the exception is recorded with the approver's justification, expiry date, and review obligation.
- ·Exception record with approver and justification
- ·Expiry date and scheduled re-review
- ·Exception appears in audit export with its authorization record
- ·Overdue exception alerts when review date passes
Evidence is created as governance work happens, not reconstructed the week before an audit.

Step-by-step lifecycle
- 01Governance action is initiatedA workflow starts, access review, drift finding remediation, approval request, or control pack evaluation. Each initiation is recorded.
- 02Evidence is captured at each stepAs the workflow progresses, each step, approval, execution, validation, generates a signed, timestamped event appended to the evidence chain.
- 03Control objective is mappedEach evidence record is tagged with the control objective it satisfies. This mapping is done automatically based on the workflow type and control pack configuration.
- 04Evidence bundle is assembledOn workflow completion, Nuxari assembles the individual event records into a structured evidence bundle linked to the finding, workflow, and control objective.
- 05Bundle is exportable on demandEvidence bundles can be exported at any time as a PDF summary or JSON package. No reconstruction is needed at audit time, the bundle already exists.
- 06Exception is recorded if applicableIf a finding is accepted as an exception rather than remediated, a separate exception record is created with the approver's identity, justification, and expiry.
Access review produces ready evidence
A quarterly access review runs across the M365 environment. Nuxari captures each certification decision, approval, and resulting action as a structured evidence bundle.
