What an auditor actually checks

20 May 2026 4 min read Audit

A short list of the questions behind most audit findings — and how to pass them.

The recurring questions

  • Can you show the obligation is met, with current evidence ?
  • Is the process real and followed (not just written) ?
  • Does the documentation match the product as shipped ?

How to pass

Map, evidence, and keep it current. Most findings are about staleness or missing mappings, not missing controls.

Mindset

Assume every claim will be asked 'show me' — and have the answer ready.

This is an educational explainer. For the canonical regulation reference, see the dedicated Audit page — or run an assessment to see how it applies to your product.
