FAQ

Frequently
asked questions

Why should leadership partner with us on ISMS governance instead of managing it in-house?

Governance should support your strategy, not slow your execution. While your leadership focuses on growth, we ensure your ISMS is operationally sound, auditable, and future-ready. We remove the compliance burden so your pipeline moves without delay.

What concrete deliverables are produced in the 90-day remediation phase?

You receive an executive remediation blueprint translating gaps into prioritized work packages, custom-fitted security policies, and technical safeguards engineered around your actual operating workflows.

Can we bundle multiple regulatory frameworks into a single review?

Yes. Tier 1 diagnostic reviews start at €1,500 for a single framework, €2,700 for a dual assessment, and +€1,000 for each added framework suite covering ISO 27001, NIS2, DORA, CRA, the EU AI Act, and GDPR.

How does the monthly GRC retainer scale as our organization hires?

Our advisory retainers scale by operational scope: Foundation GRC covers 15–40 FTEs (€1,600–€1,950/mo), Active GRC Engine handles 40–100 FTEs (€2,600–€3,400/mo), and Intensive Compliance serves high-growth tech firms (€4,200–€4,900/mo).

How do you handle urgent security breaches and incident notification deadlines?

Under our leadership SLAs, on-demand executive teams handle rapid containment and submit official breach filings within strict statutory windows (such as the 24-hour early warning notice and 72-hour comprehensive report).

Who from our internal team needs to attend the validation workshops?

For scoped assessments, we run a 90-minute core review with your IT Lead or CEO, followed by four targeted workshops distributed across Executive/Legal, IT/MSP, DevOps, and People Operations/HR.

How does the designated vCISO protect enterprise value and deals?

Our designated vCISO defends your business during enterprise sales cycles by answering high-stakes vendor security questionnaires, presenting risk reports directly to your board, and representing your posture in formal institutional audits.

What ongoing governance artifacts keep us permanently audit-ready?

Phase 02 retainers continuously maintain auditable ISMS policies, a living corporate Risk Register, formal Quarterly Management Review (QMR) documentation, internal audit findings with CAPA tracking, and staff training logs.
