# Controls

Secureframe Controls give you a complete view into your compliance program across all frameworks.

- ### Comprehensive view into your security posture — Access a full list of controls that apply to your organization. Monitor control health and see which framework requirements and tests are mapped to each of your controls.
- ### Save time with common controls — With common controls, you can map one control across multiple framework requirements, so your team can avoid doing duplicate work. All Secureframe-authored frameworks utilize common controls to ensure a sleek compliance program.
- ### Customize your controls — Create custom controls that map to framework requirements, and adjust test mappings to create the compliance program that works best for your organization.
- ### Faster Remediation with Comply AI for Remediation — Assess the health status of each control, see mapped framework requirements and tests, assign owners, and find AI-generated remediation guidance through [Comply AI for Remediation](https://secureframe.com/features/ai) for failing controls.

## How it works

Here’s how we approach compliance - [framework](/features/frameworks) requirements represent the compliance obligations that organizations must meet, controls serve as the means by which organizations meet these requirements, and [tests](/features/automated-evidence-collection) provide evidence of adherence to these requirements.
