7. Workspace Frameworks

Framework Cards

The workspace framework displays the list of frameworks that have been selected or created.

  • Frameworks are presented as individual cards.
  • Cards can be viewed either in a list or grid format.
  • Frameworks can be dragged and dropped to reorder them based on user preference for better organisation.

Overview

Each framework is displayed as a card, providing key details and functionality to manage frameworks effectively. Below is a breakdown of the elements within each card:

Framework Name

  • Displays the name of the framework.
  • Editable by the user. If an existing framework is selected, a default name is generated, which can be modified.

Date of Framework Creation

  • Automatically generated when the framework is created.
  • This date cannot be edited.

Evidences

  • Lists all uploaded evidence related to the framework.

Comments

  • Allows users to add and view comments for better collaboration.

Description

The description of the framework can be viewed by expanding the card.

Linking Policies Controls for Frameworks

1. Initial Setup

When a new framework is imported or created:

  • All links are marked as "Missing".
  • Complete Links are set to "0".
  • Incomplete Links are set to "0".

When a policy control is linked to a framework category or subcategory:

  • The Missing Links count decreases by 1.
  • The Incomplete Links count increases by 1.

A link is considered Complete when the user indicates that all necessary connections between the framework categories/subcategories and policy controls have been finalised. To mark a link as Complete, the user must:

  • Navigate to the target category or subcategory card.
  • Go to the "Linked Control" section.
  • Update the status to "Completed".
