Major release: New Frameworks Plan - May 2025
We’re excited to introduce the Frameworks Plan – a powerful new way to structure and manage compliance work across standards like GDPR, NIS2, ISO 27001, and more. This release makes it easier to build, customise, and track your compliance frameworks with greater flexibility and clarity.
Introducing the Frameworks Plan
We’re proud to launch our new Frameworks module – a big step forward that gives you full control over how you organise, plan, and follow up on your compliance work. With Frameworks, you can create structures that match standards like GDPR, NIS2, and ISO/IEC 27001 – either from scratch or by using our ready-made templates.
The new functionality helps you turn compliance into action by linking frameworks to specific tasks, controls, and roles within your organisation. And of course, everything works seamlessly with the rest of the platform – including the annual wheel and task management.
Use Predefined Templates
In Frameworks, you can choose from a range of predefined standards and regulations – such as ISO 27001, NIS2, and GDPR. We’ll keep expanding the list and make sure existing templates stay up to date.
Each template includes suggested activities – such as policies, procedures, risk assessments, or security measures – that help you get started quickly.
We’ve built a comprehensive catalogue of over 300 activities. These are mapped to relevant frameworks, and we’ll continue using the same base when mapping future ones. This gives you a clear view of which activities you already carry out – and what’s missing – when working towards compliance with a specific regulation. You’ll also see your progress across other frameworks, based on the work you’re already doing. This helps avoid duplication and supports compliance across multiple areas at once.
You can also start with a single framework and use it as your to-do list. Load the full set of controls and assign responsibilities – giving you a clear, actionable plan for how to reach compliance.
Just remember: our mappings and templates are general guidance. Every organisation is different, so make sure to adapt them to your own context.
Create Custom Frameworks
If you’d rather not use our predefined templates, you can also build your own frameworks from scratch. For example, if you’re working with a declaration like ISAE 3000 or ISAE 3402, you can create a tailored setup that fits exactly how you approach that specific requirement.
You can choose to connect standard tasks and benefit from the overlap between activities across different frameworks. Or you can link to the tasks you’ve already set up in your annual wheel.
In short, the module gives you full flexibility – whether you prefer using templates, building something from scratch, or mixing the two.
Track Progress and stay organised
Why do we think this module makes a difference? And why do we believe it can really support your compliance work? There are three main reasons:
Clarity
Get a clear overview of all your compliance areas – and see exactly where you stand. The platform automatically updates the status of each framework based on tasks being completed across your organisation. You’ll always know how far you’ve come, across standards, regulations, or your own custom frameworks.
Efficiency
Avoid doing the same work multiple times. Many tasks apply across different frameworks. An information security policy is still an information security policy – whether it’s for GDPR, NIS2, or ISO 27001. With Frameworks, you only need to do the work once, but you can use the result across multiple frameworks.
Collaboration
Compliance is a team effort. Some tasks naturally sit with IT, others with Legal, and some need to be shared more widely. With Frameworks, you can assign tasks to the right people. Everyone gets their own task list, and as they complete their work, progress is reflected across all relevant frameworks.
A unified view of your frameworks
With Frameworks, you gain a clear advantage: you can track your progress across all the standards and regulations you’re working with – including those you’ve already planned and those you haven’t started yet.
The module also gives you insights into frameworks you haven’t actively set up. It does this by comparing the activities you're already doing to the requirements of other frameworks. That way, you can see how far along you already are – even before you start planning for a new standard.
It also means your existing activities and controls can be reused and mapped to future frameworks – even ones we don’t know about yet, but that may become important in the evolving world of digital compliance.
Frameworks roadmap
With the launch of the Frameworks module, we’re introducing both our catalogue of standard activities and our first set of framework mappings. But this is just the beginning. Our goal is to expand with a wide range of frameworks across the field of digital compliance – and we’re always happy to hear your suggestions or requests.
The Frameworks module lets you manage multiple frameworks at once and monitor progress across them. Each framework is placed within the relevant domain, following the structure of our other modules.
Current frameworks:
-
ePrivacy (included in the free plan)
-
GDPR (Data Protection Plan)
-
GDPR as a Data Processor (Data Protection Plan)
-
NIS2 – General Requirements (Information & Cyber Security Plan)
-
NIS2 – Energy Sector (Information & Cyber Security Plan)
-
ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (Information & Cyber Security Plan)
Frameworks in development:
-
More sector-specific NIS2 frameworks (e.g. transport, digital infrastructure, healthcare)
-
CIS18
-
AI Act
-
Data Act
-
Cyber Resilience Act
-
DORA
