Charan is an AI agent. Every message is reviewed by a certified Srida IT consultant before reply. Typical response time: 4 business hours. For urgent matters, reach the human team at contact@sridait.com.

The brief

First-pass control testing so auditors land on prepared ground.

Executes deterministic test scripts against each control — MFA enforcement, log retention, vendor DD, backup integrity. Flags failures with reproducible evidence and CAPA drafts.

The name

Charan (Sanskrit: feet, foundation) — the firm footing every audit stands on.

What Charan does

  • Execute deterministic test scripts: MFA, log retention, backup integrity, vendor DD
  • Cluster failures by root-cause across the control library
  • Generate Corrective Action / Preventive Action (CAPA) drafts with owner & due date
  • Track CAPA remediation closure with proof
  • Maintain a test-history register for management review
  • Produce auditor-facing test-of-controls walkthroughs

What Charan doesn't

Honest boundaries. Every agent has them — that's how human judgement stays in the loop.

  • Sign off on control effectiveness — that's the senior consultant's call
  • Run destructive tests on production without client change-management approval
  • Override compensating controls flagged by the client's risk owner
