What the service covers

Cryptika reviews selected systems, applications, databases, infrastructure components, cloud services, or platforms against agreed control criteria. The audit can cover access management, privileged accounts, change management, logging, backup, configuration, segregation of duties, interfaces, data handling, and operational responsibilities.

Why organizations need it

Organizations need this service when critical systems process sensitive information, support regulated activities, have audit observations, depend on manual controls, lack clear ownership, or require assurance before a client, regulator, internal audit, or management review.

Cryptika defines audit scope, criteria, systems, evidence requests, stakeholders, and sampling approach. Evidence is reviewed through documents, screenshots, configuration extracts, access lists, change records, logs, backup records, interviews, and walkthroughs. Findings are written with business impact, risk, root cause, recommendation, owner, and remediation priority.

Expected deliverables

• Deliverables may include audit plan, evidence request list, control testing matrix, findings register, risk-rated recommendations, management summary, and remediation tracker.

What the client should prepare

• Prepare system owner contacts, access lists, change records, configuration baselines, logs, backup evidence, incident records, user review evidence, diagrams, and prior audit findings.

Scope caution

Cryptika can perform system controls audit and assessment work against agreed criteria. The service does not replace statutory audit, certification-body audit, or regulator decisions unless explicitly scoped and contractually authorized.
