PRGuard for compliance

Prove Your Standards
Were Enforced.

Auditors don’t ask whether you review code — they ask you to prove the control operated on every change.

PRGuard turns each pull request and push into an audit-ready record: what was checked against your standards, what failed, who signed off, and how it was fixed.

Evidence, generated automatically.

A Comment Thread Isn’t Evidence.

An auditor’s question is simple: show that your code-review control operated on every change last quarter.

Scattered PR comments can’t answer it — some were acted on, some waved through, some scrolled past.

A complete, attributable record can.

Without PRGuard

“We review our code” — but the proof lives in review threads and people’s memories. Demonstrating that a specific standard was checked on every change becomes an archaeology project, repeated at every audit.

With PRGuard

Every change was audited against your written standards, every finding has an owner and an outcome, and every fix links back to the audit that raised it. “Can you prove it?” is answered by a record, not a reconstruction.

Audit-Ready by Design.

Four things a control owner needs — documented standards, enforcement, attribution, and coverage — produced as a by-product of every audit.

Complete audit trail

Each finding is recorded with a verdict and a governance score, and traced end to end — from first flag, to the approved fix, to the re-audit that closes it. A per-change history you can hand an auditor.

Documented, enforced standards

Your policies live as plain-language governance rules and are applied identically to every change, across repositories and teams — the same control, provably consistent, not left to individual reviewers.

Attributable decisions

Nothing lands without a person’s sign-off. Each fix records who approved it and when, so the record shows human accountability, not an automated rubber stamp.

Coverage you can attest to

Pull requests and direct pushes are audited — by default, no change reaches your codebase unaudited. Exemptions such as skip markers are off until you enable them per repository: a deliberate policy decision, not a loophole. Your attestation covers what actually shipped, not just what went through a PR.

What a Record Looks Like.

A single finding, captured against a written standard — the unit of evidence your audit trail is built from.

non-idempotent-handler

Payments

Details

billing/webhooks.py:14

A retried webhook charges the customer twice. Stripe redelivers events after timeouts, and nothing here records what has already been processed.

Non-idempotent payment handler: in handle_webhook(), the charge is written at line 14 without checking ProcessedEvent. Because event.id is never recorded, a redelivered event re-executes the whole charge path — violating your rule that payment webhook handlers must be idempotent.

Copy

Replace the direct charge write in handle_webhook() with a guard: ProcessedEvent.objects.get_or_create(stripe_id=event.id), returning early when the event was already processed.

In billing/webhooks.py, make handle_webhook() idempotent: before any processing, guard with ProcessedEvent.objects.get_or_create(stripe_id=event.id) and return HTTP 200 immediately when the event was already processed. Do not change the charge logic itself.

  def handle_webhook(request):
      event = _verified_event(request)
+     _, created = ProcessedEvent.objects.get_or_create(
+         stripe_id=event.id)
+     if not created:
+         return HttpResponse(status=200)
      charge = _record_charge(event)
      return HttpResponse(status=200)

Unassigned Assign

Illustrative example. Findings are advisory by default — a person approves every fix before it lands.

Evidence for the Frameworks You Report Against.

PRGuard doesn’t certify your compliance — it produces the evidence that makes demonstrating your code-governance controls easier. How that evidence maps to a given control is a conversation for you and your auditor.

SOC 2 & ISO 27001

Supports change-management and secure-development evidence — that code changes are reviewed against defined standards, with a logged, attributable trail of findings and their resolution.

PCI-DSS

Helps evidence secure code-review activity (Requirement 6) — including checks for issues like insecure handling of sensitive data, recorded per change with an outcome.

Your internal policies

Whatever standards your organisation must uphold — architectural, security, or data-handling — write them as rules and get a consistent, reviewable record that they were enforced.

A note on scope. PRGuard produces evidence to support your compliance and audit programs. It does not itself certify compliance with any standard or regulation, and nothing here is legal advice. Whether and how PRGuard’s records satisfy a specific control is a determination for you and your auditor.
