The record

Purpose: PolicyCortex is a compliance and assurance platform for regulated cloud and AI systems that connects requirements, control implementation, remediation, and verifiable evidence.
Workflow: The platform supports defining system scope, implementing controls, closing gaps, preparing for review, and maintaining readiness as systems change.
Frameworks: The company says it supports CMMC Level 2, NIST 800-53 and 800-171, FedRAMP baselines, and ATO and continuous authorization workflows.
Review packages: It generates SSP, SAR, and POA&M documents from one implementation record and supports OSCAL 1.1.2 and eMASS XML exports.
Cloud providers: It reads configuration and events from AWS, Azure, and GCP, including GovCloud, Azure Government, and GCC High; GCP does not support its ATO workflow.
Integrations: Listed integrations include Microsoft Defender for Cloud, AWS Security Hub, GCP Security Command Center, Wiz, Prisma, ServiceNow, Jira, Linear, Azure DevOps, Drata, and Vanta.
Notifications and AI: Listed notification options include Slack, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, email, and webhooks; listed AI and ML platforms include Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, GCP Vertex AI, OpenAI API, Anthropic, Hugging Face, and MLflow.
Tenant and evidence security: The company says policy evaluation and evidence collection run inside the customer tenant, with no telemetry pipeline to its servers and no evidence egress; evidence records are SHA3-256 hashed and chained.
Security status: The company states that its cryptography uses FIPS 140-3 validated modules, SOC 2 Type II is in progress, and FedRAMP Moderate is planned but not yet held.
Evidence retention: The platform page describes an append-only evidence store with seven-year retention and records regenerated as of historical timestamps.
Access and support: Access requests are reviewed by the company, which confirms scope and commercial terms before onboarding; fixed-scope delivery support is optional.
Product limit: The company says PolicyCortex prepares evidence and supports readiness but does not perform the assessment or make certification or authorization decisions.

Headquarters: Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas
