Help Centre Governance & Policies Assigning coverage responsibility

Assigning coverage responsibility

What this is

Each governance area can have a responsible person — a team member accountable for maintaining that area. Responsibility assignments are visible in the coverage framework and are tracked as part of your governance posture.

What to do

In the Governance tab, select a coverage area and assign a responsible person from your team. You can assign different people to different areas based on their role and expertise.

Why it matters

Assigning responsibility creates clear accountability. Auditors look for evidence that specific people are responsible for specific controls, not just that a policy exists.

What happens next

The assigned person can see their responsibilities when they access the compliance workspace. Changes to responsibility are logged as part of your audit trail.
