Lifecycle

Control & Direction

Lifecycle defines the stages, transitions, and approval gates that govern how security projects move from inception to closure. Instead of ad-hoc status tracking, you create structured lifecycle templates with defined phases, configure approval requirements at each gate, and apply those templates to projects for consistent governance. Every phase transition is recorded with timestamps, the user who triggered it, and optional comments for full traceability.

Lifecycle integrates with Projects (template assignment and phase governance), Tasks & Milestones (requirement approvals), and the Workflow Engine (phase workflow automation).
