Choosing a suitable ISMS tool is a key success factor for industrial companies with their increased regulatory requirements. Information security risks must be systematically identified, documented and assessed, particularly in the context of NIS2, ISO 27001, DORA or industry-specific standards. Many companies are faced with the challenge of replacing established Excel structures or isolated tools.
An effective ISMS should do more than just manage documents. The ability to consistently link risks, controls, measures and responsibilities and make them controllable across various organizational units is crucial. In addition, traceability, auditability and the implementation of various frameworks play a central role.
Athereon GRC helps companies build a structured ISMS by embedding ISMS processes in an integrated, cloud-based GRC architecture. Risks, security controls and measures can be recorded, updated, evaluated and documented in an audit-proof manner, which efficiently supports regulatory requirements. The framework openness and the “Made in Germany” approach ensure maximum flexibility while maintaining highest security standards.
Companies choosing an ISMS tool should therefore ensure that information security is not isolated but implemented as part of a holistic GRC approach.
