A control is an automated test that is built into a cookbook, and then used to test the state of the system for compliance. Compliance could be as simple as ensuring that file and directory management meets specific internal IT policies. And it could be as complex as meeting requirements that are driven by large-scale compliance frameworks such as |pci|, |hipaa|, and |sarbanes oxley|.

Use the ``control_group`` and ``control`` methods in the |dsl recipe| to define automated tests within cookbooks. These tests are processed during the |chef client| run and the results are sent to the |chef server| at the end of the |chef client| run. Some of this data ends up as |reporting| data and the rest is routed to the |chef analytics| server. The |chef analytics| server analyzes the compliance data by running rules against this data, generating notifications as required.

A control is an automated test that is built into a cookbook, and then used to test the state of the system for compliance. Compliance can be many things. For example, ensuring that file and directory management meets specific internal IT policies---"Does the file exist?", "Do the correct users or groups have access to this directory?". Compliance may also be complex, such as helping to ensure goals defined by large-scale compliance frameworks such as |pci|, |hipaa|, and |sarbanes oxley| can be met.
