How Cyber Horizon automates CH FADP
Every CH FADP control lives in a shared control library, crosswalked to the other frameworks you run — evidence collected once counts everywhere it applies.
Evidence is collected automatically from your connected tools, with owners, review cadences and gaps tracked continuously instead of at audit time.
Audit packs generate on demand, and the risk register, vendor risk and threat intelligence sit in the same platform — one evidence trail across your whole programme.
