The Challenge

Business Problem

Compliance teams scramble before audits, manually gathering evidence from dozens of systems. Gaps in logging and inconsistent processes lead to audit findings and remediation costs.

The Approach

Solution Overview

Connect AWS MCP Server, GitHub MCP Server, and HashiCorp Vault MCP Servers to maintain a continuous audit trail with automated evidence collection and compliance reporting.

Step-by-Step

Implementation Steps

1

Define Compliance Controls

Map regulatory requirements (SOC2, HIPAA, GDPR) to specific technical controls.

2

Automate Evidence Collection

Set up agents to continuously collect evidence: access logs, change records, encryption status.

3

Generate Compliance Reports

Produce formatted compliance reports mapping evidence to controls.

async function generateComplianceReport(framework) {
  const controls = COMPLIANCE_CONTROLS[framework];
  const evidence = {};
  for (const control of controls) {
    evidence[control.id] = await collectEvidence(control);
  }
  const report = { framework, date: new Date(), controls: controls.map(c => ({ ...c, evidence: evidence[c.id], status: evidence[c.id].length > 0 ? 'pass' : 'fail' })) };
  return report;
}
4

Alert on Violations

Send immediate alerts when compliance violations are detected.

Code Examples

Evidence Collector
async function collectEvidence(control) {
  switch (control.type) {
    case 'access_logs': return await aws.getCloudTrailEvents({ lookupAttributes: [{ key: 'EventName', value: control.event }] });
    case 'encryption': return await aws.describeVolumes({ Filters: [{ Name: 'encrypted', Values: ['true'] }] });
    case 'code_review': return await github.listPullRequests({ state: 'closed', base: 'main' });
  }
}
