Compliance Mapping Guide

This guide is for compliance officers, auditors, and GRC teams performing gap analysis or preparing for regulatory audits. It presents Arbitex capabilities as a cross-framework control matrix — showing which controls apply to which frameworks simultaneously — and provides framework-by-framework mappings with evidence artifacts and shared responsibility boundaries.

How this page differs from related pages:

  • Compliance Frameworks Reference — describes what each bundle detects and enforces, framework by framework
  • Compliance Frameworks guide — operational how-to for activating bundles and configuring your policy chain
  • This page — cross-framework matrix for gap analysis; framework-specific regulatory mappings with audit evidence and customer responsibilities

The following table shows which Arbitex capabilities address requirements in each of the 8 supported regulatory frameworks. Use this matrix to identify which capabilities are relevant to your specific obligations and to scope a gap analysis.

Legend: ✓ = addresses one or more requirements in this framework | — = not applicable or organizational

DLP inline detection — Real-time scanning of every AI request and response in the DLP pipeline before policy evaluation. Each Compliance Bundle activates a set of framework-specific entity types (PANs, PHI identifiers, GDPR special categories, etc.). Detection runs on every request with no sampling.

Policy Engine enforcement — Five terminal actions (BLOCK, CANCEL, REDACT, ALLOW_WITH_OVERRIDE, PROMPT) applied when bundle or custom rules match. Every action produces a security_finding audit log entry with the framework reference, rule ID, pack ID, and matched category.

Compliance Bundles — Pre-built policy packs mapped to regulatory frameworks. Each bundle contains detection patterns and policy rules that enforce atomically when the bundle is active in your policy chain. Bundles are read-only — rules cannot be suppressed or modified.

Tamper-evident audit trail — HMAC-SHA256 chain where each audit entry includes the HMAC of the preceding entry. Any modification, deletion, or reordering of entries breaks the chain and is reported by the verification API. All platform events are logged: chat completions, policy decisions, DLP triggers, authentication, and administrative changes.

SIEM export (OCSF v1.1) — Enforcement events export in Open Cybersecurity Schema Framework v1.1 format. Bundle enforcement actions map to OCSF class 2001 (Security Finding). Authentication events export as class 3002. Administrative changes export as class 3001. SIEM dashboards can filter by metadata.framework_reference to scope views to a specific regulation.

Model Risk Management — Model Registry with OCC SR 11-7 aligned risk tiers (critical, high, medium, low), structured validation lifecycle (unclassifiedunder_reviewapproved/conditional/deprecated), immutable approval log, and Policy Engine integration via model_risk_tier condition. Relevant for financial institution regulators (GLBA, SOX, BSA/AML) with SR 11-7 obligations.

Credential Intelligence (CredInt) — Bloom filter detection of leaked or known-bad credentials appearing in prompts. Applicable where access controls and credential hygiene are regulatory requirements.

Human-in-the-loop governancePROMPT and ALLOW_WITH_OVERRIDE actions route requests through approval workflows before proceeding. The ALLOW_WITH_OVERRIDE action creates an accountable exception record. The PROMPT action interposes a governance challenge before the request is processed.

Data retention controls — 90-day active retention + 2-year archive in Azure Log Analytics. For frameworks requiring longer retention (BSA/AML: 5 years; SEC 17a-4: 3–6 years), configure your SIEM retention accordingly.

Encryption in transit — TLS 1.2+ on all external connections; mTLS on internal service-to-service connections and Outpost tunnels. Application-layer Fernet encryption for stored credentials and configurations.

Access controls (RBAC, group-based policies) — Role-based access control at the API layer (admin, org_admin, audit_viewer, user roles). Group-based policy rules allow different enforcement tiers for different user populations. SAML SSO and MFA enforced per org policy.

Audit log export — Portal export (GET /v1/orgs/{org_id}/audit/export) returns CSV or JSON with filters for action type, user, time range, and severity. Compliance export API (POST /api/v1/admin/audit/export) produces signed JSON packages with HMAC chain verification for auditor submission. Both support filtering by date range and event type.

Standard: SEC Regulation Fair Disclosure (17 CFR Part 243) Regulatory body: U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Scope: Issuers subject to Regulation FD. The rule governs selective disclosure of material non-public information (MNPI) — it is a disclosure rule, not a recordkeeping rule.

Reg FD consideration Arbitex controls Evidence artifacts
Detection of MNPI before it leaves the organization sec_reg_fd bundle detects insider_info, material_contract, regulatory_action, bank_account_number, and email in AI traffic DLP trigger events tagged with the bundle’s compliance_bundle tag; SIEM enforcement events
Preventing MNPI disclosure to third-party AI providers Policy Engine BLOCK or REDACT action on bundle rule match, across every configured channel module Policy enforcement records; override audit records for any exception
Evidence that a disclosure control was operating Tamper-evident audit trail with HMAC chain; enforcement events exported via OCSF Compliance export with full date-range coverage; chain verification report

For Regulation FD:

  • Determining what information is “material” and “non-public” for your issuer
  • Public disclosure process following any inadvertent selective disclosure
  • Coverage of disclosure channels outside the AI Gateway (calls, meetings, email, messaging)

If you are a registered broker-dealer subject to SEC Rule 17a-4, that obligation rests entirely with you and is not addressed by this or any other Arbitex bundle:

  • A WORM archive meeting the non-rewritable, non-erasable requirement
  • Retention for the full required period (3 years for most books and records; 6 years for certain records)
  • Designation of a third-party download agent (required by Rule 17a-4(f)(3))
  • Examination access procedures for SEC examination staff
  • Record indexing of communications outside the AI Gateway (email, voice, messaging)

The Compliance Export API produces signed JSON packages suitable for presenting to auditors. The package includes HMAC chain verification, confirming the audit records have not been modified since they were written.

Terminal window
# Export all HIPAA enforcement events for a date range
curl -X POST https://api.arbitex.ai/api/v1/admin/audit/export \
-H "Authorization: Bearer arb_live_your-api-key" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"framework": "HIPAA",
"from": "2026-01-01T00:00:00Z",
"to": "2026-03-31T23:59:59Z",
"format": "signed_json"
}'

Repeat with framework set to the appropriate bundle ID (PCI-DSS, GDPR, GLBA, SOX, BSA_AML, CCPA, SEC_17A4) to produce per-framework evidence packages.

For ad-hoc audit queries, use the portal export endpoint:

Terminal window
# Export all DLP block events, CSV format
curl "https://api.arbitex.ai/v1/orgs/{org_id}/audit/export?format=csv&action=dlp_block&start_time=2026-01-01T00:00:00Z&end_time=2026-03-31T23:59:59Z" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <org_jwt>"

Supported filter parameters: format (csv/json), action, user_id, start_time, end_time, severity, limit (max 10,000 per request; use the compliance export API for larger pulls).

Use the following SIEM queries to scope enforcement event views to specific frameworks:

Framework SIEM filter
PCI-DSS class_uid = 2001 AND metadata.framework_reference: "PCI-DSS*"
HIPAA class_uid = 2001 AND metadata.framework_reference: "HIPAA*"
GDPR class_uid = 2001 AND metadata.framework_reference: "GDPR*"
GLBA class_uid = 2001 AND metadata.framework_reference: "GLBA*"
SOX class_uid = 2001 AND metadata.framework_reference: "SOX*"
BSA/AML class_uid = 2001 AND metadata.framework_reference: "BSA*"
CCPA class_uid = 2001 AND metadata.framework_reference: "CCPA*"
SEC Reg FD class_uid = 2001 AND metadata.framework_reference: "SEC Reg FD*"
All enforcement events class_uid = 2001
Authentication events class_uid = 3002
Admin/policy changes class_uid = 3001

To confirm your audit trail has not been modified, use the chain verification API:

Terminal window
POST https://api.arbitex.ai/api/v1/admin/audit/verify
Authorization: Bearer arb_live_your-api-key
Content-Type: application/json
{
"from": "2026-01-01T00:00:00Z",
"to": "2026-03-31T23:59:59Z"
}

The response includes:

  • verified: true if the chain is intact for the requested range
  • entries_checked: count of audit entries verified
  • first_entry_id and last_entry_id: boundary records of the verified range
  • chain_status: details of any gaps or broken links detected

Present the verification response alongside the compliance export as evidence that audit records are tamper-evident. See Audit Chain Integrity for a complete description of the HMAC-SHA256 chain algorithm.

For organizations with OCC SR 11-7 obligations (financial institutions under GLBA, SOX, BSA/AML), export the model inventory to produce a model risk register artifact:

Terminal window
# JSON format for GRC platform import
GET https://api.arbitex.ai/api/v1/admin/model-inventory-export?format=json
# CSV format for spreadsheet or SR 11-7 examination submission
GET https://api.arbitex.ai/api/v1/admin/model-inventory-export?format=csv

The export includes model_id, provider, risk_tier, validation_status, owner, approved_use_cases, restrictions, usage_30d, usage_90d, and last_used_at. See Model Risk Management for the full field reference.

Bundle activation and deactivation events are logged as administrative changes (OCSF class 3001 — Account Change). To retrieve bundle activation history for an audit period:

Terminal window
curl "https://api.arbitex.ai/v1/orgs/{org_id}/audit/export?format=json&action=bundle_state_change&start_time=2026-01-01T00:00:00Z" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <org_jwt>"

Each event includes the bundle_id, the enabled state before and after the change, the admin user ID, and the timestamp. This record supports demonstrating continuous compliance coverage to auditors.


Organizations with overlapping regulatory obligations — such as a healthcare payment processor subject to both HIPAA and PCI-DSS, or a bank subject to GLBA, SOX, and BSA/AML — can activate multiple bundles simultaneously.

Enable each bundle individually, then add all bundles to your policy chain:

Terminal window
# Enable all required bundles
POST https://api.arbitex.ai/api/v1/admin/orgs/{org_id}/compliance/bundles
{ "bundle_id": "hipaa", "enabled": true }
POST https://api.arbitex.ai/api/v1/admin/orgs/{org_id}/compliance/bundles
{ "bundle_id": "pci_dss", "enabled": true }
POST https://api.arbitex.ai/api/v1/admin/orgs/{org_id}/compliance/bundles
{ "bundle_id": "glba", "enabled": true }
# Configure the policy chain with sequence ordering
PUT https://api.arbitex.ai/api/v1/admin/orgs/{org_id}/policy/chain
{
"combining_algorithm": "first_applicable",
"packs": [
{ "pack_id": "bundle_hipaa", "sequence": 1 },
{ "pack_id": "bundle_pci_dss", "sequence": 2 },
{ "pack_id": "bundle_glba", "sequence": 3 },
{ "pack_id": "pack_01HZ_CUSTOM", "sequence": 10 }
]
}

Under the default first_applicable combining algorithm, the first matching rule across the chain terminates evaluation for that request. This has practical implications for multi-bundle deployments:

  • Position the most restrictive bundle first. If HIPAA and GLBA both target SSNs, HIPAA’s BLOCK rule fires first when HIPAA is at a lower sequence number. The GLBA rule does not produce a separate event for the same request under first_applicable.
  • Use deny_overrides if you need all bundles to produce audit evidence independently. Under deny_overrides, all packs evaluate — any BLOCK from any bundle takes precedence, and all matching rules log audit entries. This produces richer audit evidence at the cost of increased policy evaluation overhead.
  • Custom ALLOW rules before bundles. If a specific group has a business justification to transmit data that a bundle would block, position a custom ALLOW rule in a pack before the bundles in the chain. This bypass is explicit and produces an ALLOW_WITH_OVERRIDE audit entry.

Several DLP entity types are activated by multiple bundles simultaneously:

Entity type Active in bundles
ssn HIPAA, GLBA, CCPA, BSA/AML
financial_account_numbers GLBA, SOX, BSA/AML, SEC 17a-4
email GDPR, CCPA, SEC 17a-4
health_info HIPAA, GDPR
biometric GDPR, CCPA
name HIPAA, GDPR, CCPA
bank_account_number PCI-DSS, BSA/AML

When multiple bundles are active and a shared detector fires, the audit entry references the framework of the bundle whose rule matched first (under first_applicable) or all matching bundles (under deny_overrides). Shared detectors do not double-evaluate — the DLP pipeline runs once per request.

Organization type Typical bundle set Recommended chain order
Healthcare payment processor HIPAA, PCI-DSS HIPAA (1), PCI-DSS (2)
Regional bank GLBA, BSA/AML, SOX GLBA (1), BSA/AML (2), SOX (3)
Broker-dealer SEC Reg FD, BSA/AML, SOX SEC Reg FD (1), BSA/AML (2), SOX (3)
Financial services (full stack) GLBA, PCI-DSS, BSA/AML, SOX, SEC Reg FD PCI-DSS (1), GLBA (2), BSA/AML (3), SOX (4), SEC Reg FD (5)
EU healthcare organization GDPR, HIPAA GDPR (1), HIPAA (2)
