Adding comments about a control during a control set review - AWS Audit Manager

Adding comments about a control during a control set review

You can add comments for any controls that you review. These comments are visible to the audit owner.

Prerequisites

Make sure your IAM identity has appropriate permissions to add comments to an assessment control in AWS Audit Manager. Two suggested policies that grant these permissions are Allow users full administrator access to AWS Audit Manager and Allow users management access to AWS Audit Manager.

Procedure

To add a comment to a control
  1. Open the AWS Audit Manager console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/auditmanager/home.

  2. Choose Notifications in the left navigation pane.

  3. On the Notifications page, review the list of control sets that were delegated to you.

  4. Find the control set that contains the control that you want to leave a comment for, then choose the name of the related assessment to open the assessment.

  5. Choose the Controls tab, scroll down to the Control sets table, and then select the name of a control to open it.

  6. Choose the Comments tab.

  7. Under Send comments, enter your comment in the text box.

  8. Choose Submit comment to add your comment. Your comment then appears under the Previous comments section of the page, along with any other comments regarding this control.

Next steps

When you've finished reviewing the control, follow the steps in Marking a control as reviewed in AWS Audit Manager.
