Compliance coverage
Every finding PenScanner produces is tagged with the compliance frameworks it relates to, so the same scan output can feed an auditor review or a SOC 2 evidence package without re-doing the analysis.
SOC 2
Common Criteria 6 (Logical Access) and 7 (System Monitoring). Finding evidence is auto-mapped to CC6.1/CC6.7/CC7.2/CC8.1 where applicable.
- Trust Services Criteria mapping
- Evidence trail per finding
- Auditor-ready PDF dossier
PCI-DSS v4
Requirements 4 (encryption in transit), 6 (secure systems), and 8 (authentication). Findings tagged with the explicit requirement they relate to.
- Quarterly scan attestation
- Req. 6.5 injection-flaw checks
- TLS / cipher posture
ISO 27001 Annex A
Cryptographic controls (A.10), operations security (A.12), and access control (A.9). Findings include the Annex A control ID directly.
- A.12.6 technical vulnerability mgmt
- A.9.4 access control
- A.10.1 cryptography
HIPAA Security Rule
Administrative (164.308) and Technical (164.312) safeguards. Useful for healthtech tenants. Findings include the rule citation.
- 164.308(a)(1) sec mgmt process
- 164.312(e) transmission security
GDPR
Article 32 (security of processing). PenScanner is also built to help you comply: Art. 17 (erasure) and Art. 20 (portability) are first-class features.
- Art. 32 security of processing
- Art. 17 right to erasure
- Art. 20 portability export
NIST CSF
Protect (PR) and Detect (DE) functions. Each finding maps to the relevant CSF subcategory.
- PR.IP-12 vulnerability management
- DE.CM-1 network monitoring
How it works
- PenScanner's safe-by-design adapters surface findings (DNS posture, TLS misconfig, missing security headers, exposed config files).
- Each finding is automatically tagged with the relevant OWASP category, CWE ID, and the framework controls it maps to.
- The Compliance dossiers feature (Pro and Enterprise plans) generates an auditor-ready document mapping every open finding to its applicable controls, with evidence and remediation instructions. Available for all six frameworks above.
- The dossier renders as standalone HTML — open in a browser, print to PDF, or hand to an auditor as-is.
Sample dossier
Below is a representative excerpt from a SOC 2 dossier — finding, severity, mapped controls, evidence captured at scan time.
SOC2 — Compliance Dossier Acme Corp · generated 2026-05-27 02:30 UTC Findings included: 14 By severity: Critical 0 · High 2 · Medium 5 · Low 7 ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── [High] Exposed .git directory Controls: CC6.1 — Logical access · CC8.1 — Change management · CWE-538 Evidence: GET https://app.example.com/.git/HEAD -> 200 (body fingerprint matched). A .git directory is being served. An attacker can clone the full source tree with `wget --mirror`. Remediation: Remove the .git directory from the document root. Configure nginx/Apache to deny requests to dot-prefixed paths. ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
