Jurisdictions supported in v4.1.1
36 jurisdictions across Middle East, Africa, Asia-Pacific, Europe + North America.
Why jurisdictions matter
A single framework — say, PCI-DSS — applies worldwide, but the attestation requirements, retention periods, and statutory deadlines are set by the jurisdiction. Pulse Compliance encodes the jurisdiction-specific variations in the applicability matrix so you only see controls that apply to you.

How jurisdiction is picked
Defaults to your billing country. Override under Account Settings → Region. The override re-filters applicable frameworks immediately; existing cycles are unaffected.
