Click Next.
The next step is to link the controls for the evidence.
Use the Frameworks panel to view controls relevant to your frameworks.
Expand a specific requirement to see all controls associated with it.
When you select a requirement, all controls within it will be selected by default.
If needed, you can then select/unselect specific controls as required.
Select the checkboxes next to the controls you want to link.
Note: Any requirement that is not applicable will appear greyed out.
Optionally, use the search bar at the top to quickly locate controls by name or code.
Once you've made the selections, enable the "Show Linked Controls" toggle to review and verify the controls you've chosen to link.
Click Next to confirm your selections.
Review the information and click Create.
Scrut will create the custom evidence task.
