Find the security policies you lack
A security programme rests on a set of policies, and a missing one is a real gap. This tool identifies missing critical security policies based on common frameworks, so you can see which policies you lack and need to create.
Why policy gaps matter
Frameworks expect certain policies to exist, an access control policy, an incident response policy, a data retention policy, and each governs an area of security. A missing policy means that area is ungoverned, which is both a real risk and an audit finding. Identifying the gaps against the policies a framework expects shows exactly what to write, turning a vague sense of being under-documented into a concrete list. This is far more useful than discovering the missing policy during an audit or, worse, during an incident it would have governed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which policies are considered critical?
Ones frameworks expect, such as access control, incident response, and data retention policies, each governing an area of security that should not be ungoverned.
Why does a missing policy matter?
Because the area it would govern is left without defined rules, which is both a real security risk and a finding in most compliance audits.
How does the tool identify gaps?
By comparing the policies you have against those common frameworks expect, showing which are missing and need to be created.
Is having a policy enough?
No. A policy must be followed to be effective, but the policy existing is the necessary first step, and its absence is a clear gap.
Is my input uploaded?
No. The tool runs entirely in your browser.
