Compliance

Monitor your AWS posture against industry compliance frameworks

Overview
qrie maps your launched policies to compliance framework controls and tracks your coverage in real time

The Compliance page shows how your active policies align with industry standards. Each framework is broken down into individual controls, and each control links to the policies that satisfy it — and any open findings that violate it.

  • Compliance is read-only — you manage coverage by launching or adjusting policies on the Management page
  • Scores update automatically as policies are launched, findings are resolved, or new resources are detected
  • A control is compliant only when its mapped policy is active and has zero open findings for the resources in scope
How Compliance Scoring Works
Understanding the score shown for each framework

Each framework displays a compliance score (0–100 %) calculated as:

score = compliant_controls / total_controls × 100

A control is counted as compliant when:

  • The mapped policy is active (launched), and
  • There are no ACTIVE findings for that policy

A control is non-compliant when the policy is active but has open findings. A control is not monitored when the policy hasn't been launched yet.

Control StateMeaning
CompliantPolicy active, zero open findings
Non-CompliantPolicy active, one or more open findings
Not MonitoredPolicy not yet launched

Navigating the Compliance Page
Framework overview

The Compliance page shows a card for each framework with its score gauge, total controls, and open finding count. Click a framework card to drill into its controls.

Framework detail

Each framework detail page lists all controls with their state, associated policy, service, and finding count. Use the state filter tabs (All / Compliant / Non-Compliant / Not Monitored) to focus on what needs attention.

Drilling into findings

Clicking a finding count on a control row navigates to the Findings page filtered by that policy — so you can immediately see what's causing the non-compliance.

Improving Compliance Coverage
How to increase your score
Steps to improve your score:
  1. 1Open the framework detail page and filter by Not Monitored
  2. 2Note the policies associated with unmonitored controls
  3. 3Go to Management and launch those policies with appropriate scope
  4. 4Review open findings for non-compliant controls and remediate the underlying resources
