Fulfilling Audit &
Compliance Requirements

Overview​

In regulated industries, proving that your data is accurate, complete, and traceable is just as important as maintaining it.

QuerySurge delivers automated, audit-ready reporting that helps organizations meet compliance standards across various industries, including finance, healthcare, government, and energy, ensuring every data movement is transparent and verifiable.

How QuerySurge Supports Compliance​

Full Test Traceability​

Every test executed in QuerySurge automatically records:

• Test logic and source/target connections
• Timestamps for execution
• The user or automation that ran the test
• Detailed pass/fail outcomes
• Historical test versioning

This creates an indisputable audit trail that allows auditors and compliance teams to see exactly what data was tested, when, and how.

Audit-Ready Reporting​

QuerySurge’s built-in Data Intelligence Dashboards and Report Library deliver visual and exportable compliance reports:

• Test execution history and results trends
• Data validation coverage by source system
• Failed vs. passed test ratios across projects
• User activity and access logs

Reports can be exported to PDF, Excel, or web dashboards for sharing with auditors or regulatory teams.

Compliance Framework Alignment​

QuerySurge helps enforce and document controls required by:

• SOX (Sarbanes – Oxley) – Data accuracy in financial reporting
• HIPAA – Integrity checks on sensitive healthcare data
• GDPR & CCPA – Proof of data lineage and accuracy
• FedRAMP & FISMA – Audit logs for federal data validation
• ISO 9001 / ISO 27001 – Evidence of continuous quality assurance processes
• BCBS 239 – sets standards for accurate, complete, and timely bank risk data reporting.
• CFR Part 11 – regulates electronic records and signatures for FDA compliance and data integrity.

Integration with Governance Tools​

• Bi-directional integration with Jira, Azure DevOps, and TestRail for compliance traceability
• REST APIs to feed test results into governance dashboards or GRC systems​
• Automated scheduling ensures repeatable validation at every data pipeline run
