Ekko

Start in Ekko by mapping ownership. Connect your HRIS and SSO, import your org chart, and auto-generate teams for HR, Risk, and Legal. Assign data stewards, reviewers, and approvers with clear permissions. Pick the standards you follow—ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR—and use the built-in library to link requirements to specific controls, policies, and learning paths. Set review cadences, escalation rules, and due dates so tasks land with the right people and never go stale.

Next, roll out training with precision. Build role-based curricula, upload SCORM/xAPI packages, or compose micro-lessons with quizzes and scenario questions. Auto-enroll employees by department, location, or project. Ekko issues certificates, sends smart reminders, and nudges learners in Slack or email until completion. Add policy attestations to courses so employees sign off as they learn. Use translation tools for global teams, monitor progress in real time, and export completion data for auditors or regulators with a single click.

Move policies and controls through a governed lifecycle. Start from a template, track edits with versioning, route drafts to Legal for redlines, then capture e-signatures before publishing to your policy hub. Configure who must acknowledge, when, and how often. Link controls to risks and test plans, assign testing frequencies, and attach evidence—screenshots, logs, or tickets—directly to each control. Run risk assessments, log issues and exceptions, create corrective actions, and watch status flow from open to verified. When audit season arrives, pull a pre-filtered evidence package with timestamps, owners, and full history so you can answer requests in minutes rather than weeks.

Tie compliance work to performance outcomes. Set team and individual goals, connect them to competencies, and schedule structured check-ins. Launch 360 reviews, calibrate ratings, and surface skills gaps that training can close. Dashboards show hotspots: overdue attestations, high-risk assets, or teams behind on courses. Integrate with Jira, ServiceNow, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and Slack to keep tasks in the tools people already use. Use the workflow builder to automate handoffs—when a control fails, open a ticket, assign training, and notify stakeholders automatically. With granular permissions, audit trails, and encryption by default, Ekko keeps accountability clear while helping every department move faster.
