Structured around the POA&M requirements your AO and 3PAO actually expect.
Create, edit, and track findings from Open through Closed. Risk ratings, due dates, deviation justifications, and responsible offices all in one place.
Break each finding into milestones with planned and actual completion dates. Status dropdown, inline editing, and full change history.
Import directly from Nessus, Tenable, and Qualys CSV exports. Findings are deduplicated by vulnerability — one POA&M item per unique finding.
Import from official FedRAMP POA&M Excel templates or your own CSV exports. 70+ column aliases recognized automatically.
Risk breakdown charts, overdue item alerts, and one-click PDF or CSV export ready for your AO submission package.
