ISMS and governance, with clarity built in
Cerivo's GRC platform brings information security, controls, risk, and reporting into one clear system, so your team can stay organized, reduce duplicate work, and operate with confidence.
Run your ISMS with confidence
Managing information security across frameworks, controls, tasks, and reporting can get messy fast. Teams end up working across spreadsheets, siloed tools, and disconnected processes that make it harder to see what matters.
Cerivo gives you one connected place to run your ISMS and governance work. You can map controls across frameworks, assign ownership, track recurring work, assess risk, and report clearly to management and auditors.
When everything works from one system, complexity becomes easier to manage.
What Cerivo helps you do
Work across multiple frameworks without duplicating effort
Map controls across ISO 27001/2, NIS2, CIS 18 and ISAE 3402, and your own internal requirements. When the same control supports multiple frameworks, your team can manage it once and keep progress connected.
Turn controls into reliable routines
Assign owners, create recurring tasks, track due dates, and keep your annual control cycle moving. Cerivo helps teams stay on top of what needs attention without relying on manual follow-up.
See risk in context
Connect risks to controls, tasks, systems, and vendors. With a clearer view of threats, weaknesses, and mitigations, your team can prioritize work based on what matters most.
Give management a clear view
Track implementation status, control progress, policy adoption, incidents, and risk exposure in one place. Cerivo makes it easier to report progress, focus attention, and support better decisions.
Adapt the system to fit your organization
Start with prebuilt frameworks or create your own. Cerivo gives you structure without forcing a rigid model, so your governance setup can reflect how your business actually works.
Stay audit-ready at all times
Generate your Statement of Applicability (SoA) in one click, track control implementation status, and produce reports for management or external auditors - ready when it matters most.
Built for the day-to-day reality of governance
An ISMS is not a one-time project. It is ongoing work that depends on clear ownership, repeatable routines, and visibility across teams.
Cerivo is designed to support that day-to-day reality
With one connected platform, you can:
- Load standard frameworks quickly
- Customize control sets
- Assign and redistribute work
- Create recurring control tasks
- Track evaluations and follow-up
- Monitor policy adoption
- Generate statements and reporting outputs
- Connect governance work across assessments, systems, vendors, and incidents
That means less admin, less fragmentation, and more confidence in the work behind your program.
A clearer way to manage controls
Cerivo helps you answer the questions that matter:
- Do we know which controls are in place?
- Do we know which frameworks they support?
- Do we know who owns them?
- Do we know what needs attention next?
- Can we show progress clearly to auditors and leadership?
When those answers are easy to find, governance becomes more manageable and more useful to the business.
Choose the right controls based on risk
Strong governance is not about doing everything. It is about knowing where risk sits, what action is needed, and how to respond with confidence.
Cerivo helps you take a structured approach to risk by connecting assessments to controls, ownership, and follow-up work. Your team can see inherent and residual risk, understand where mitigation is working, and focus effort where it will have the most impact.
Reporting that helps people act
Good reporting should do more than summarize activity. It should help leadership understand where things stand, where risk is rising, and where decisions are needed.
Cerivo brings together security status, risks, incidents, controls, and task progress in one place, making it easier to report clearly and get alignment faster.
Key capabilities
Framework management
Load ISO 27001/2, NIS2, CIS 18, ISAE 3402, and other common frameworks with a consistent structure - no setup from scratch.
Custom frameworks
Tailor control sets to your own internal or regulatory requirements, not just off-the-shelf standards.
Control mapping
Link one control to multiple frameworks. Update it once and the change reflects everywhere it applies – reducing repeated work.
Risk management
Connect risks to controls and tasks designed to mitigate them, and track if residual risk is improving over time.
Recurring tasks
Assign repeatable tasks with owners and due dates. Tasks recur automatically so nothing drops between audit cycles.
Audit management
Store evidence directly in Cerivo, linked to the controls being tested. Auditors can see what's in place and what's missing – no more chasing.
Policy management
Create and maintain policies linked to the controls they support - clearly connecting documentation and operational practice.
Policy adoption
Track who has acknowledged each policy and follow up where adoption is incomplete. Useful for audits and staff awareness requirements.
System and vendor oversight
Maintain a registry of systems and vendors with associated risks, controls, and review schedules in one connected view.
Security incidents
Log incidents, document root causes, and track corrective actions to closure - all linked to related controls and risks.
Management reporting
Show control status, risk exposure, open tasks, and policy adoption in one view built for leadership decisions, not just status updates.
Integrations and access
Connect Cerivo to existing tools with role-based access so each user sees what's relevant to their responsibilities.
One platform. Clearer governance
Cerivo brings governance, risk, and compliance work into one connected system, so teams can stay organized, reduce friction, and move forward with confidence.
Know where you stand. Act on what matters. Stay ready for what’s next.
Frequently asked questions
Cerivo is a GRC and ISMS platform that helps organizations manage information security frameworks, controls, risk, and compliance in one connected system. It is designed for security and compliance teams that need to run ongoing governance work — not just pass a one-time audit.
Cerivo includes prebuilt support for ISO 27001/2, NIS2, CIS 18, ISAE 3402, and DORA. Organizations can also build custom frameworks around internal requirements or industry-specific obligations, so the platform works for teams operating under multiple or overlapping regulatory regimes.
Controls can be mapped across frameworks simultaneously. When a control applies to both ISO 27001 and NIS2, it is managed once - changes and updates reflect across all linked frameworks automatically, eliminating duplicate work across separate tools or spreadsheets.
Cerivo connects risk assessments to the controls, tasks, and vendors associated with each risk. Teams can track inherent and residual risk over time, see where mitigation is working, and focus effort where exposure is highest.
Yes. Cerivo supports organizations subject to the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) by providing a structured way to manage ICT risk, track controls, document incidents, and oversee third-party vendors — all core requirements under DORA. Teams can map existing controls against DORA's requirements and track compliance progress in one place.
Yes. Audit evidence is stored directly in the platform, linked to the specific controls being tested. Auditors and internal reviewers can access a clear view of what is implemented, what is missing, and what still needs follow-up — without chasing documentation across systems.
Cerivo brings together control implementation status, risk exposure, open tasks, policy adoption, and incident data in one reporting view — designed to give leadership and board-level stakeholders the information needed to make decisions, not just track activity.
Spreadsheets don't connect frameworks, controls, risks, tasks, and vendors to each other. Cerivo gives teams a single system where everything is linked — so when something changes, the impact is visible across the whole program rather than siloed in separate files.
