Governance, risk & compliance

GRC — Cyber & AI

Govern risk and prove compliance across both cyber and AI. We equip the teams who own governance to build and run an ISO/IEC 27001 information security management system, manage risk credibly, align with the EU AI Act and ISO/IEC 42001, and stay audit-ready across both disciplines.

Overview

Governance, risk, and compliance has never been harder to do well. Cyber obligations keep tightening, AI regulation has arrived in earnest with the EU AI Act and ISO/IEC 42001, and the teams responsible are often asked to satisfy both with the same finite resources — frequently treating them as two separate programmes and duplicating the work in the process.

GRC — Cyber & AI is built to bring those worlds together. We equip your governance teams to build and operate an ISO/IEC 27001 information security management system, manage risk in a way leadership and auditors trust, and extend that same discipline to AI through ISO/IEC 42001 and EU AI Act readiness — mapping shared controls so effort is spent once, not twice.

The programme is grounded in your own registers, policies, and target certifications, with tracks for implementers, risk owners, and internal auditors, plus briefings for the executives who carry ultimate accountability. Teams leave audit-ready, with a coherent, sustainable approach to governing risk and proving compliance across both cyber and AI.

Frequently asked questions

Does this cover both cybersecurity and AI compliance?

Yes — that is its purpose. Many organisations treat cyber and AI governance as separate worlds and duplicate effort. We show how to run them together, mapping shared controls across ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 42001 and meeting EU AI Act obligations within one coherent GRC approach.

Will this prepare us for ISO 27001 certification?

It will. We work through building and operating an ISMS, the controls and Statement of Applicability, and the evidence and internal-audit practices certification bodies expect, so your team is genuinely audit-ready.

We are early in our AI journey — is the AI content still relevant?

Yes. We meet you where you are, helping you understand the EU AI Act and ISO/IEC 42001 and lay the governance foundations now, before AI risk and obligations grow.

Is this aimed at technical staff?

It is aimed primarily at GRC, risk, compliance, audit, and security-leadership audiences. We run executive briefings for boards and deeper working sessions for the teams who operate the controls.

Can it be tailored to our existing frameworks?

Yes. We build the working sessions around your own risk registers, policies, and target certifications, so the programme strengthens what you already have rather than starting from scratch.
