Only people with a global administrator or Compliance Manager Administrator role can access the Compliance Manager settings.

The automated testing feature is not available to customers in GCC High and DoD environments because Secure Score isn't available in these environments.

You can set up automated testing of actions that are jointly monitored, which means that when an action is tested and updated in Secure Score, those results synch with the same actions in Compliance Manager and count toward your compliance score.

Automatic testing is turned on by default for organizations new to Compliance Manager. When you first deploy Microsoft or Office , it takes approximately seven days for Secure Score to fully collect data and factor it into your compliance score.

When new assessments are created, scores automatically include Microsoft control scores and Secure Score integration. The global administrator for your organization can change the settings for automated testing at any time.

Select Save to save your settings. If you receive a failure notice, try again. Note: Only the global administrator can turn on or off automatic updates for all actions.
