Control Mapping
Connect the rule your organization sets to the control applied during execution and the evidence a reviewer can inspect. Give each mapping a scope and an accountable owner.
Control crosswalk
These examples start with internal operating requirements. The control and evidence depend on the workflow, configuration, and actions that pass through KLA.
- Requirement
- A person approves payments that meet the review rule.
- Control
- The policy returns require_approval. Decision Desk presents the Decision Request to an authorized reviewer.
- Record to inspect
- Original request, policy version and outcome, reviewer decision, and subsequent execution result.
- Accountable owner
- Payments operations lead
- Requirement
- An agent sends customer data only to permitted destinations.
- Control
- Evaluate the proposed tool action and destination against the configured data-access policy.
- Record to inspect
- Requested action, evaluated context, policy outcome, and recorded tool result when execution is permitted.
- Accountable owner
- Data owner
- Requirement
- A reviewer can explain why a consequential action occurred.
- Control
- Keep the policy decision and any human review connected to the action through execution lineage.
- Record to inspect
- A Lineage Record connecting the request, decision, relevant versions, and execution result.
- Accountable owner
- Process owner
- Requirement
- A review uses a defined set of supporting records.
- Control
- Collect the scoped records and supporting material for review in Evidence Room.
- Record to inspect
- Evidence inventory, bundle manifest, integrity information, and the reviewer’s assessment of remaining gaps.
- Accountable owner
- Risk or assurance lead

Assessing coverage
The accountable owner defines the systems, actions, and period under review. They confirm which controls are configured, whether the expected records are present, and which gaps require further work.
An execution record supports that assessment within its recorded scope. Your team still evaluates control effectiveness, activity outside KLA, and the applicability of external requirements. A framework reference alone does not establish coverage or compliance.

Start with one workflow. Identify its requirements, assign the control owners, and gather the records they need to evaluate the result.
