Simplify Compliance Initiatives

Proactively meet your compliance requirements with CyCognito.

Passing an audit is a challenge from start to finish. Day-to-day activities are often put on the back burner, and stress levels rise as your teams scramble to gather information in preparation.

CyCognito catalogs your externally exposed assets and tests them, providing governance risk compliance (GRC) teams the confidence they require to start the audit process. Well before the audit begins, they can assess the current state of exposure, the assets that need immediate attention, where the asset resides in your architecture, and obtain instructions on how to remediate the issue.

CyCognito maps discovered issues with top security frameworks and compliance standards, providing specific guidance for each violation as it relates to your objective. Automated evidence collection and continuous monitoring enable you to get ready for audit or prove attestation in minimal time. The result: faster audit times and lower stress levels for your teams.

In the EU? Address NIS 2 more easily with CyCognito.

Important new regulations such as NIS 2 add to the complexity as European organizations dig in to understand impact and requirements. Organizations are proactively addressing NIS 2 requirements through mapping from other security frameworks such as ISO27001, CIS and NIST 800-53, supported by CyCognito.
