What the Rippling +

AuditBoard SOX

 Integration Does

The Rippling–AuditBoard integration connects Rippling's employee and access data with AuditBoard's SOX and audit management platform, automating the collection of user access evidence required for SOX compliance. Access changes triggered by Rippling — hires, role changes, and terminations — flow into AuditBoard as audit evidence, eliminating manual evidence gathering before each audit cycle.

AuditBoard is the leading audit and compliance management platform for mid-market and enterprise public companies. For companies with SOX obligations, connecting AuditBoard to Rippling ensures access control evidence reflects actual provisioning events rather than manually compiled spreadsheets.

What Mid-Market Teams Get Wrong

Companies running AuditBoard for SOX compliance typically pull access review evidence manually from IT systems at audit time, creating a snapshot that may not reflect changes that occurred throughout the audit period. Connecting Rippling ensures that provisioning and deprovisioning events are captured continuously, not just at audit time.

How thePeopleStack Configures This

thePeopleStack configures the Rippling–AuditBoard data connection, mapping Rippling's user access and lifecycle events to AuditBoard's evidence collection framework. We coordinate with your compliance team to confirm the evidence format meets your SOX audit requirements.

USA & Canadian Operations Note

AuditBoard integrations for thePeopleStack's Rippling clients are built around US SOX compliance requirements. SOX applies to US public companies; the integration framework applies to US entities.

Canadian and cross-border operations: Canadian public companies subject to NI 52-109 (the Canadian equivalent of SOX) may use a similar access evidence framework. thePeopleStack advises on Canadian compliance requirements during implementation.

FAQs

What is AuditBoard?

AuditBoard is a connected risk and compliance platform used by public companies and enterprises for SOX compliance, internal audit management, risk assessment, and ESG reporting. It is particularly dominant among mid-market public companies managing SOX programs.

How does Rippling support SOX access control evidence?

Rippling's provisioning and deprovisioning events — new hires, role changes, terminations — create an auditable record of access changes. Connecting these events to AuditBoard automates the evidence collection step for user access reviews (UAR) and access control testing.

What Rippling data flows to AuditBoard?

User access events including hire dates, role changes, application provisioning logs, and termination dates are the core data elements that feed AuditBoard's SOX evidence library.

Does this replace a manual user access review process?

It automates evidence collection for user access reviews, but access certifications still require a human reviewer to confirm appropriateness. The integration reduces the effort of gathering evidence, not the need for the review itself.

How long does configuration take?

Configuration takes 3–5 hours depending on the AuditBoard control framework and the access evidence format required by your SOX auditors.
