Built this after watching engineering teams lose weeks before every SOC 2 audit rebuilding the same evidence trail from scratch — screenshots, PR links, spreadsheets — for work that was already documented in GitHub. EvidentTrail connects via GitHub App and captures PR approvals, branch protection changes, CI results, and AI-assisted commits as structured, tamper-evident evidence mapped to specific controls (SOC 2 CC8.1, ISO 27001 A.8.32, etc.). A few things that might be interesting to this crowd: - AI-assisted code detection: we identify co-authored-by trailers, bot authors, and PR labels…

Hi HN! We're open-sourcing our collection of SOC 2 controls as the first step in building an open source compliance automation platform. Github: https://github.com/getprobo/probo The current SOC 2 experience: 1. Pay a random $10k+ for compliance software 2. Get hundreds of tasks with no context on what's optional and how much time it will take 3. Realize you need to pay an external auditor 4. End up with checkboxes, not better security Why we think open source matters: - Never speak with a sales guy who doesn’t understand your needs. - You should never pay for templates.…

AuditBadger▲19Hi, Wanted to share something I've been working on for over a year. AuditBadger is a compliance management platform that uses AI to write policies (there are underlying "templates" with basic requirements), rewrite controls (or trust service criterions) to match the company context, help figure out your own controls, does initial risk assessment, and business continuity planning (which at least gives you an example of how the process should look like). Fun fact - I wanted to share this a year ago, but then I spotted something similar here. The most common comment was about lacking the SOC 2…

Hi Hacker News! We're Samrose and Shaeq from Apptrail (https://apptrail.com). We let B2B SaaS companies easily add customer-facing audit trails to their products. It's currently too hard to build and consume SaaS audit logs. Organizations use audit logs to access and monitor the activity coming from their SaaS tools for security and compliance reasons. For example, a security admin at an enterprise company would use Slack audit logs to see messages sent and what devices and IP addresses they were sent from. Many SaaS companies don’t offer audit trails to their customers, which…

Hey HN! Jaka here, solo founder of Assertly (https://www.assertly.com). Assertly is a monitoring tool for continuous infosec, IT, compliance and DevOps regression testing. It enables teams to automate periodic checks using JavaScript. Before Assertly, I was the CTO of Celtra (https://celtra.com), a B2B SaaS company, for over 10 years, from “git init” to 250 people and the company’s sale to private equity. I was primarily responsible for product strategy, engineering, QA, DevOps, but also for IT and InfoSec. I found that ensuring security, integrity, privacy, and…

Hey HN, I’ve been helping small SaaS teams get through SOC 2 / ISO 27001. Every “policy builder” I tried (10+ of them) spat out generic stuff that auditors basically shrugged at (same as if you asked ChatGPT). So I ended up building my own tool. Nothing magical — just a lot of research, plus layering in the right context (implementation controls, company specifics, testing conditions, etc.). The outcome: three companies I worked with recently passed SOC 2 Type 2, and the auditors actually called out the policies as well-structured and clear. You can also try and generate any policies in…

I started using Claude Code (claude --dangerously-skip-permissions) and Codex (codex --yolo) and realized I had no reliable way to know what they actually did. The agent's own output tells you a story, but it's the agent's story. logira records exec, file, and network events at the OS level via eBPF, scoped per run. Events are saved locally in JSONL and SQLite. It ships with default detection rules for credential access, persistence changes, suspicious exec patterns, and more. Observe-only – it never blocks. https://github.com/melonattacker/logira
