The regulatory reality

Five frameworks. All in force, now.

ISO 27001, NIS2, DORA, GDPR and PCI DSS are no longer optional for thousands of businesses across Cyprus, Greece and the wider EU.

StandardTransition closed Oct 2025

ISO 27001:2022

The international benchmark for information security — demanded by enterprise clients, public tenders and cyber insurers.

  • 93 security controls across 4 themes
  • Mandatory annual surveillance audits
EU directiveActive since Oct 2024

NIS2

Applies to 160,000+ EU entities — 16× more than NIS1 — including IT services, finance, healthcare and professional services.

  • 24h → 72h → 30-day incident reporting
  • Management liability, fines up to €10M
EU regulationApplies since Jan 2025

DORA

Digital operational resilience for EU financial entities — and every ICT supplier they rely on.

  • Register of Information for ICT third parties
  • Resilience testing & board accountability
EU regulationIn force since May 2018

GDPR

Every organisation processing EU personal data must prove it is handled lawfully and securely — with fines up to €20M or 4% of global turnover.

  • Records of processing activities & DPIAs
  • Security of processing under Article 32
Industry standardv4.0.1 · fully effective Mar 2025

PCI DSS

Mandatory for any business that stores, processes or transmits payment card data — merchants and service providers alike.

  • Cardholder data environment scoping
  • Annual validation via SAQ or ROC / AOC

The challenge for SMEs

The traditional route is broken.

Multi-framework compliance is genuinely complex. Most SMEs either skip it entirely — or pay far too much for far too little.

€15k–40k

Typical consultant cost for a first ISO 27001 implementation — before certification fees.

6–18 mo

Of back-and-forth between consultants, management and staff before audit readiness.

No CISO

Most SMEs have no in-house security specialist. You can't know what you don't know.

200+ pages

Policies, procedures, risk registers and SOA — traditionally written from scratch.

The platform

Your ISMS, generated from your business.

From zero to audit-ready in 2–3 weeks. The AI reads your real organisational context and produces documents specific to you.

AI generation

Complete asset register, risk assessment, Statement of Applicability, and 11 core policies and procedures — generated from your data in minutes.

You describe your business AI maps assets & risks Controls & policies Word documents

RAG knowledge base

11,000+ vectors from 94 ISO standards. Precise, cited answers — like having an expert on call.

Guided 6-phase journey

A step-by-step certification roadmap with live progress. The platform tells you exactly what to do next.

Multi-framework built in

NIS2 incidents, DORA resilience, GDPR records and PCI DSS scoping alongside ISO 27001 — one control set mapped across all five.

Professional documents

Policies, SOA reports, BCP/DRP and audit reports — generated as Word files and branded for your organisation.

Ongoing management

Annual review cycle, evidence pipeline, internal audit and overdue alerts. Compliance doesn't stop at certification.

Your certification journey

Six guided phases. AI does the heavy lifting.

At each phase a single click triggers AI generation — what takes a consultant weeks takes your team hours.

  • Section-aware helpAsk from Assets, Risks, Controls or Policies — answers are about the record in front of you.
  • Grounded & citedEvery recommendation shows its source, so it's defensible in front of an auditor.
  • Proactive daily health checkScans for overdue tasks, missing controls and expiring evidence — before an auditor does.

Every AI output is labelled and reviewed by you before use. Human oversight, built in.

Multi-framework

One control. Many frameworks.

Framework modules

Dedicated modules — built in, not bolted on.

Beyond ISO 27001, each live framework gets purpose-built tooling that reuses the assets, suppliers, risks and evidence you already manage.

NIS2

Incident, supplier & continuity modules

24h

Early warning

72h

Full notification

30d

Final report

  • Incident managementAutomatic INC references, AI-calculated notification deadlines and significance assessment. Deadline monitor runs every 30 minutes.
  • Supplier securityAI-scored supplier risk, NIS2-aware due diligence questionnaire, auto-created remediation tasks.
  • Business continuityBIA per process, RTO/RPO targets, BCP/DRP documents — aligned to Art. 21(2)(c) and ISO 22301.
DORA

Operational resilience for finance

For banks, insurers, payment institutions, crypto-asset providers — and the ICT providers that serve them.

  • Register of InformationOne central register of every ICT third-party arrangement — the first thing supervisors ask for.
  • ICT risk & subcontracting chainClassify ICT assets by criticality and trace fourth-party risk behind critical providers.
  • Resilience testingPlan and evidence tests, including threat-led penetration testing, with findings flowing into corrective actions.
  • Management-body governanceBoard-level accountability aligned to the EBA / ESMA / EIOPA Joint Guidelines.

Not a second project: assets, suppliers, incidents and evidence from ISO 27001 and NIS2 are reused for DORA.

GDPR

Privacy records on your ISMS

For every organisation processing EU personal data — built on the systems, suppliers and controls you already manage.

  • Records of processing (ROPA)A structured Article 30 register of processing activities — purposes, data categories, recipients and retention.
  • Data protection impact assessmentsDPIAs for high-risk processing, with risks and mitigations documented for review and sign-off.
  • Processor & supplier checksGDPR and DPA status captured in supplier due diligence, alongside security and continuity questions.
  • Article 32, already evidencedSecurity of processing maps straight to the ISO 27001 controls you already implement.

For merchants and service providers that store, process or transmit cardholder data.

  • CDE scopingDefine the cardholder data environment and the systems, people and suppliers in scope.
