Aegis CISO Enablement

Sentinel

Compliance Core

Aegis is the CISO enablement layer of the Pistos platform — powered by PCS, the AI engine that generates configurations, policies, training, and reports. Aegis delivers CISO-level accountability two ways: Pistos supplies a named senior advisor as your designated CISO, or your internal CISO runs the program backed by the full capability of PCS.

Sentinel is where the compliance program lives. The risk assessment, the incident response playbook, the disaster recovery plan, the hardware and software inventories, the written policies, the quarterly posture reviews — Sentinel holds all of it in a single, current, defensible record.

When a NY DFS examiner, a CMMC assessor, or an HHS OCR auditor asks to see your program, Sentinel is what they see.

Risk Assessment
Annual, NIST-aligned risk review mapped to your frameworks — with inherent risk ratings, control scores, and a prioritized remediation roadmap.
Incident Response
Documented playbook for cyber events — phishing, account compromise, ransomware, data breaches — with a structured incident log for post-event evidence.
Disaster Recovery
Playbook for operational outages and extended downtime, with recovery priorities tied to your application inventory.
Hardware & Software Inventory
The canonical record of every device and application — what you own, who owns it, how it's configured, and where the recovery keys live.
Security Policies
Acceptable use, data handling, password, remote work, vendor management — the written standards every framework requires you to have.
Technology Security Posture
Quarterly review of what's actually configured in your environment against your written baseline — not what the vendor dashboards report.
Process Security Posture
Quarterly review of the human and operational controls — offboarding, access reviews, change management, the practices policies depend on.

How Sentinel fits the program

Sentinel is the compliance backbone — the pillar the other two feed into. Mathisi produces the training records that Sentinel's policies require. Skopein produces the vulnerability findings that Sentinel's risk assessment consumes and that Sentinel's quarterly posture reviews track to closure. Together, the three pillars produce a compliance program that is both complete and current.

What makes Sentinel different from a shared drive full of Word documents is currency. Every template is versioned, every artifact is dated, and every control is mapped against the eight authoritative frameworks Pistos supports. When a regulation amends or a framework publishes a new revision, the mapping updates — and Sentinel flags the evidence that needs to be refreshed before it goes stale.
