Setting up your Compliance module in Humadroid.

Last updated on Jun 02, 2025

The Compliance tab is available only for paid accounts. If you’re managing frameworks like ISO 27001 or SOC 2, or you need to maintain an audit-ready internal control system, this is your go-to setup.

Compliance Settings Overview

Risk Categories

Define what risks your company tracks – and how they’re grouped.

Humadroid comes with a set of system default risk categories. These are grouped by area (e.g., Compliance, Contractual, External) and include:

  • Clear descriptions of the risk type

  • Examples of common threats or violations

  • Tags to help with classification

Default risk categories

Default compliance risk categories in Humadroid including contractual, legal, and regulatory risks

System default risk categories grouped by type: compliance, legal, contractual, and regulatory. Each includes examples to help with classification.

You can use these predefined categories out of the box or create your own, aligned with your structure, teams, or departments.

💡 Example: Create a custom “IT Operational Risk” category if you’re tracking system downtimes or vendor SLA breaches separately.

Scoring Methods

Decide how you evaluate and prioritize risks.

In this section, you manage risk scoring models that help determine the criticality of each risk. Three default methods are available:

  • Multi-Impact Assessment
    Uses a weighted formula based on financial, legal, and reputational impact.

  • Simple 5×5 Risk Matrix
    A straightforward model using probability × impact.

  • Weighted Impact Assessment
    A nuanced model allowing additional types of impact (e.g., operational).

Available risk scoring methods

Choose from predefined scoring models like Multi-Impact Assessment or create your own to align with your organization’s risk evaluation framework.

Each model comes with editable treatment thresholds (when a risk becomes significant) and customizable weights. You can also create new methods based on your internal evaluation criteria.

📎 Recommended: In our internal compliance, we're using this method with a higher threshold - it allows us to focus on really important risks and leave a track of those of lesser impact.

Employment Types

n Humadroid, Employment Types help you enforce compliance by ensuring the right documents are linked to the right roles. Whether it’s full-time staff, contractors, or interns, each type can have specific policies automatically assigned, such as:

  • Code of Conduct

  • NDA

  • Security or Data Protection Policies

This ensures that every person acknowledges the right set of documents based on their role, with no manual chasing.

Advanced Asset Management (Assets Settings)

Once Compliance is enabled, you’ll also get access to advanced asset tracking features, so let’s break up how to navigate through Assets settings.

Lifecycle States

Here, you define and manage equipment lifecycle stages from the beginning, from purchasing to disposal.

Humadroid provides a set of default states:

  • Ordered

  • Received

  • In Stock

  • Deployed
    …and more.

You can edit these or create your own.

  • Assign ownership and version history

  • Link documents to risks, assessments, or assets

  • Request acknowledgment from employees (e.g., policy sign-off)
