The Clean Audit Paradox Has a Fix
RSA, Wednesday, November 4th, 2026
RSA introduces Compliance Advisor, an AI-native capability that maps regulations to governance programs and measures adherence continuously.
RSA describes a Clean Audit Paradox, in which organizations pass point-in-time audits while carrying governance gaps that audits never surface.
Its Compliance Advisor maps regulations to a governance program at the requirement level, currently supporting GDPR, CJIS, HIPAA, NIST and POPIA, with more planned.
For each requirement it tracks KPIs measuring adherence and recommends changes continuously, and every mapping links to the regulation text for verification.
RSA ties this to its Active Defense Governance paper and its Governance and Lifecycle product, which aim to close the gap between static policy and actual system access.
