Easily identify and search controls via unified descriptions across modules
What’s new?
Control descriptions are now displayed consistently next to control names across all major tables and modals. Plus, you can now search for controls using description keywords, making it easier to find the right control, even when names are similar.
Why it matters
This update makes it easier to find controls using keywords in their descriptions quickly, always see the full context of a control (not just its name), and spend less time assigning the right controls.
How it works

Control descriptions are now visible in:
Tables:
Frameworks → Linked Controls
Risk Management → Risk Detail Page → Controls
Risk Management → Risk Register → Mitigation Task Detail Page → Controls
Audit Center → Audit Detail Page → Controls
Audit Center → Requests → Request Detail Page → Controls
Audit Center → Findings → Finding Detail Page → Controls
Modals
Tests → Test Detail Page → Controls
Policies → Policy Detail Page → Controls → Link Controls
Evidence Tasks → Evidence Detail Page → Controls → Link Controls
Risk Management → Risk Detail Page → Link Controls
Risk Management → Mitigation Task Page → Link Controls
Audit Center → Audit Detail Page → Edit Controls
Audit Center → Request Detail Page → Link Controls
Audit Center → Finding Detail Page → Link Controls
Corrective Action → Corrective Action Detail Page → Controls → Link Controls
Search by description
You can now search for controls using keywords from their descriptions across all of the above tables and modals, making it easier to find controls even when names aren’t memorable or are too similar.
