Automation
Dynamic, fully-automated questionnaires
Advanced, customizable questionnaires let you collect detailed information about business activities through a single form. They automatically generate linked processing activities, associated risks, business impact assessments (BIAs), TOMs/mitigations, tasks, and map everything to the appropriate controls.
Flexibility
Framework overlap management
Seamlessly share critical information such as risks, vendors, policies, and information systems within your organization in a centralized, up-to-date location. Streamline documentation across multiple InfoSec frameworks by eliminating duplicate evidence, risks, and maintenance efforts.
Audit ready
Risk management, treatment, and register
- Customize your own risk matrix and classify risks based on both initial and residual impact—making it easy to identify those that require immediate attention.
- Define threats, vulnerabilities, mitigations, ownership, and tasks, and track their status to ensure continuous follow-up on risk reduction efforts.
- Seamlessly link relevant elements across your organization—such as vendors, information systems, policies, processing activities, and assessments—to gain a comprehensive view of where risks exist and what controls are in place to mitigate them.
Planning
Powerful compliance roadmaps

- Assign clear ownership to controls, evidence, risks, mitigations, and more.
- The system automatically detects when reviews are due or when potential non-compliances arise.
