Scrutineer · By framework

PCI compliance software that keeps you assessment-ready

PCI DSS compliance lives and dies on scope and evidence: define the cardholder data environment too loosely and the assessment balloons, leave evidence uncollected and you fail on documentation rather than security. Scrutineer maps the PCI DSS requirements to your controls and helps you keep the cardholder data environment tightly and clearly scoped.

The platform collects evidence for each requirement automatically and flags gaps such as a firewall rule that drifted, an unpatched in-scope system or a missing log. You see a live view of readiness per requirement, so the assessment is a confirmation, not a discovery. Scrutineer gets you assessment-ready; a Qualified Security Assessor performs the formal validation.

Why it works

What you get with pci dss

Requirements mapped

Scrutineer maps your controls to the PCI DSS requirements, so you see coverage requirement by requirement instead of reconstructing it at assessment time.

Scope kept tight

The platform helps you define and watch the cardholder data environment, so scope creep does not quietly expand your assessment and your risk.

Evidence per requirement

Evidence is collected automatically and attached to the requirement it proves, with drifted rules and unpatched in-scope systems flagged early.

What it handles

Controls in, an evidence-linked report out

Point Scrutineer at a framework or a vendor and it maps every control, pulls the evidence it can find, flags the gaps and scores the risk, returning a report with linked evidence and a prioritized remediation list. Scrutineer is decision support for readiness, an accredited auditor still issues the attestation.

Why Scrutineer

One platform that maps controls and scores risk

Not a static questionnaire, not a pass-fail black box, and not a spreadsheet you maintain by hand. Live control mapping across SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR and PCI, automatic evidence and a prioritized gap list, returned as a report you can act on. The AI scrutinizes, you decide.

Mapped to real controls

Every framework is broken down into the controls it actually requires, each scored on a red to amber to green scale, so readiness stays transparent and consistent.

Evidence behind every finding

Each control links to the exact evidence that satisfies it, the policy, the config, the log line, so the finding is auditable and your readiness is defensible.

A prioritized gap list

Open gaps roll up into a ranked remediation list, so the highest-risk findings sit at the top and your team fixes what matters before the audit begins.

Good questions

Questions about pci dss

No. Formal PCI DSS validation is performed by a Qualified Security Assessor, or via the appropriate self-assessment questionnaire. Scrutineer maps requirements to controls, manages scope and organizes evidence so that validation goes smoothly.

It helps you define the cardholder data environment and watches the systems inside it, flagging when something new touches card data. Keeping scope tight and visible reduces both your assessment effort and your actual exposure.
