Activate an authority document or risk statement category to install its citations, control objectives, or risk statements into your instance.

## Disclaimer

Important:  
The ServiceNow Risk products help customers address regulatory requirements under various jurisdictions. However, we do not guarantee compliance and customers are ultimately responsible for their own compliance with
applicable regulations.

ServiceNow aims to provide software updates for new or updated major regulations and requirements within twelve to eighteen months of the regulation's publication. For regulations for which ServiceNow provides a level of
support in the base system, ServiceNow aims to provide software updates for minor regulatory changes within 12 months and for major regulatory changes within up to 18 months depending on scope and impact. We differentiate
between typical regulatory content updates, which do not require software updates or enhancements, and regulatory updates, which do require software updates or enhancements. Content updates are generally delivered on a
shorter cadence than if software update or enhancement is required for the regulatory update or change.

## Before you begin

   The following disclaimer appears on the page:

       The customer is responsible for ensuring compliance with applicable laws, regulations, directives, and/or standards, and for ensuring that any content provided in the product is accurate and up to date.
       The content provided with the product is for ease of use. It is the customer's responsibility to replace it with the applicable laws, regulations, directives, and/or standards at their own discretion. 
       This content has been generated with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) and should be reviewed and validated before use.
