A strong GRC approach helps organisations move from reactive security to proactive resilience — linking governance, risk, and compliance for lasting protection.
Trusted by hundreds of businesses, from startup to enterprise
Modern security isn't just about technology — it's about accountability, consistency, and visibility.
A GRC framework ensures:
Leadership oversight and policy direction for security.
Identification, treatment, and monitoring of cyber threats.
Alignment with standards like ISO 27001, SOC 2, and Essential Eight.
The result: a documented, measurable, and auditable cyber security posture.
All policies, risks, and incidents live in one system.
Every control has a responsible person and status.
Real-time tracking of actions and tests.
Nonconformities feed directly into risk and action plans.
CertCrowd links these frameworks under one GRC dashboard, eliminating duplication and ensuring consistent control management.
Governance creates structure around decision-making and accountability. In security, this means:
Good governance ensures security decisions align with business risk, not just IT risk.
CertCrowd helps teams manage security risk from identification to closure:
Identify a risk (e.g., weak MFA policy)
Link it to applicable controls and requirements
Assign an action (e.g., enforce MFA on admin accounts)
Verify completion and review effectiveness
All linked, auditable, and reportable.
When an incident occurs, GRC ensures:
Roles and escalation procedures are defined
Evidence and corrective actions are logged
Root cause analysis feeds back into the risk register
CertCrowd's Issues module supports this full lifecycle — from report to resolution.
