Cloventa is a Continuous Compliance Engineering platform that helps companies understand whether their infrastructure and development processes continuously meet security and compliance requirements.
Instead of preparing for compliance only before an audit, Cloventa connects compliance requirements with the systems engineers actually operate.

Cloventa is designed primarily for technology companies, startups, SMBs, and MSPs that need to achieve or maintain standards such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIS2, and DORA.
It is particularly useful for companies that have a cloud infrastructure and an engineering team but don't want compliance to become a large manual operation.

Traditional compliance automation platforms are very good at helping companies prepare evidence and manage audits.
Cloventa focuses more deeply on the engineering side of compliance: understanding what is happening in your infrastructure and helping you identify when changes can create compliance risks.
You can think of it as the difference between:
"Are we ready for the audit?"
and
"Are we still compliant today?"

Continuous Compliance means continuously monitoring whether your actual infrastructure, configuration, processes, and controls remain aligned with your compliance requirements.
A company can pass an ISO 27001 audit today and accidentally introduce a non-compliant configuration tomorrow.
Cloventa is designed to make these changes visible.

Certification is a point-in-time assessment of your organization's controls and processes.
Your infrastructure, employees, software, vendors, and configurations continue changing after the audit.
For example, an engineer might change an AWS configuration, deploy a new service, modify IAM permissions, or introduce a new third-party integration.
The certification does not automatically prevent those changes from creating compliance gaps.
Cloventa helps companies continuously monitor this gap between what was audited and what is actually running.

No.
Cloventa is designed to reduce the amount of manual work required from compliance and security teams, not replace their judgment.
It connects technical infrastructure with compliance requirements so that compliance teams can spend less time collecting information and more time managing actual risks.

Cloventa only needs access to the information required to assess your compliance posture.
Depending on your setup, this may include configuration data, security settings, access controls, infrastructure metadata, logs, and information from connected development or cloud services.
Cloventa uses this data to:

• assess your environment against applicable compliance requirements;
• identify potential compliance gaps and misconfigurations;
• monitor changes that could affect your compliance status;
• provide evidence and context for compliance controls.

Cloventa does not need access to your application's business data or customer content simply to assess your infrastructure.
The principle is least-privilege access: Cloventa should access only the data and permissions necessary to perform compliance checks.
Your data is used to provide and improve the compliance monitoring service and is handled according to Cloventa's security and data protection policies.

In fact, this is one of the main use cases for Cloventa.
A startup may not have enough resources to hire a dedicated compliance team. Cloventa helps founders, engineers, and security owners understand what needs to be done and prepare for audits without building a large compliance operation.

Yes.
Cloventa is designed to work with modern technology environments, including cloud infrastructure and engineering tooling.
The exact integrations depend on the environment and compliance requirements, but the goal is to connect compliance requirements with the systems where those controls actually exist.

Cloventa's primary purpose is to observe, assess, and identify compliance issues.
It should not require you to redesign your infrastructure simply to use the platform.
Where remediation is possible, Cloventa can help identify what needs to change and where the problem exists.

Cloventa is designed around the principle of continuous monitoring rather than periodic compliance checks.
The important question is not simply:
"Were we compliant when the auditor checked?"
but:
"What changed since then, and does that change affect our compliance?"

Yes.
The goal is not simply to show a red or green status.
Cloventa should connect a compliance requirement with the underlying technical configuration or process responsible for satisfying it, allowing engineers and compliance teams to understand what is wrong, why it matters, and what needs attention.

Yes.
Cloventa is designed to bring compliance closer to the engineering workflow.
Instead of sending engineers long compliance checklists, compliance teams can point to the actual technical systems and configurations that need attention.
This makes compliance more understandable and actionable for engineering teams.

Yes.
Cloventa can help identify compliance gaps before an auditor finds them and provide visibility into whether required controls are actually implemented.
This can reduce the amount of last-minute manual work required before an audit.

Yes.
This is one of the core ideas behind Cloventa.
Certification should not be the end of compliance.
After certification, your infrastructure continues changing. Cloventa helps you monitor those changes and maintain compliance between audits.

Cloventa is designed to detect compliance-relevant changes and identify the affected requirement or control.
Instead of discovering the problem months later during an audit, the company can address it much closer to when the change occurred.

No.
Cloventa is intended to make compliance understandable to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
A founder should be able to understand the company's compliance posture without becoming a cybersecurity engineer, while engineers should be able to understand exactly what technical issue needs attention.

Consultants can provide valuable expertise, especially when establishing a compliance program.
However, consulting is typically periodic and heavily dependent on manual work.
Cloventa provides a technology layer that can remain connected to your environment continuously.
The two can also work together: consultants can help define the program, while Cloventa helps maintain visibility over the technical implementation.

The goal is to make onboarding lightweight.
After connecting the relevant infrastructure and systems, Cloventa can begin assessing the environment against the applicable compliance requirements.
The exact time depends on the complexity of your infrastructure and the scope of compliance you need to cover.

Yes.
For startups, the main benefit is avoiding the situation where compliance becomes a large manual project just before an enterprise customer or auditor asks for it.
Cloventa helps startups build compliance into their infrastructure from the beginning instead of reconstructing it later.

Yes.
SMBs often have several people involved in compliance: engineering, DevOps, security, management, and sometimes an external consultant.
Cloventa provides a common view of how technical infrastructure relates to compliance requirements, helping prevent responsibilities from falling between teams.

Yes.
MSPs and compliance service providers can use Cloventa as a platform for monitoring and managing compliance across multiple customer environments.
This can allow service providers to offer continuous compliance as an ongoing service rather than relying entirely on periodic manual assessments.

No.
Cloventa is a software platform, not an independent auditor or certification body.
An accredited auditor is still responsible for independently assessing whether your organization meets the requirements of a certification standard.
Cloventa helps you prepare for and maintain that s

No software can legitimately guarantee that.
Compliance depends on your organisation's processes, people, controls, scope, and auditor assessment.
Cloventa can help you identify and manage technical compliance gaps, but the final certification or attestation remains the responsibility of the relevant auditor.
