Description and use

<p>Every engineering team that goes through SOC 2 Type II or ISO/IEC 27001 certification knows the burden of audit season.</p> <p>Auditors ask for verifiable evidence:</p> <ul> <li>Did independent engineers review every change to production in the last 12 months?</li> <li>Are authors strictly prevented from approving their own pull requests?</li> <li>Do automated security scans run on every commit?</li> <li>Do production deployments require multi-party operational sign-off?</li> </ul> <p>Traditionally, engineering teams spend weeks taking screenshots of pull requests, filling out spreadsheets,
