GRC as a Service —
Governance That Stays Alive.

Governance, Risk & Compliance as an ongoing service, not a one-off engagement that's out of date the moment the report lands. Your program evolves as regulations change, your team grows, and your risk profile shifts. We keep it sharp, documented, and defensible. Read our CPaaS ISO 27001 case study →

GRC as a Service icon — governance risk and compliance
Sound Familiar?

Your Security Program Exists.
But Nobody Owns It Day-to-Day.

Most organisations pass an audit and then let the program drift. Here's what we see, and why it creates real risk.

📋

Your security program exists on paper, but nobody owns it day-to-day

Policies get written, frameworks get assessed, and then nothing happens until the next audit. GRC needs to be a living discipline, not an annual document exercise.

⏱️

You've passed an audit, but the evidence is already out of date

ISO 27001 surveillance audits happen annually. Most organisations regress significantly between assessments without realising it, until the auditor finds it.

📊

Your GRC platform has data that nobody reviews

Tools like Vanta capture compliance signals automatically, but someone needs to interpret them, act on findings, and update risk treatments. Data without oversight isn't assurance.

📉

Risk management is a spreadsheet that nobody looks at

A risk register is only valuable if it drives decisions. Most don't, they're static documents that get updated once a year and consulted never.

What We Deliver

No regression between audits —
sustained confidence.

Your program stays alive: governance, risk and compliance maintained continuously so you're always ready for what comes next, an audit, a customer questionnaire, or a board review.

Why Logic Weave

Managed GRC That Goes Beyond Monthly Reports

Most GRC providers send monthly reports and call it managed. We run the risk meetings, test the controls, and maintain the program, so your security doesn't regress between audits.

How We Compare

GRC as a Service vs Building an In-House Compliance Team

Most Australian SMBs face a choice: hire a full-time compliance manager (or team) or outsource GRC to a provider. Here's how the two approaches compare in practice.

Cost and Scalability

A full-time GRC hire costs $150–200k+ including super, tools, and training — before they've built anything. Logic Weave's retainer model delivers a functioning program from day one, scaled to your tier. Upgrade or downgrade as obligations change, with no hiring or redundancy risk.

Depth of Expertise

One in-house hire covers one person's experience. Logic Weave brings 24+ years across ISO 27001, Essential Eight, SOC 2, and NIST CSF — plus cross-industry pattern recognition from dozens of SMB engagements in FinTech, HealthTech, and SaaS.

Continuity and Coverage

In-house GRC roles have high turnover. When your compliance person leaves, the program stalls. A managed GRC service maintains continuity regardless of staffing changes, with documented processes and shared institutional knowledge.

Independence and Objectivity

Internal teams can develop blind spots — especially when they built the controls they're assessing. An external GRC partner brings the objectivity that auditors and board members expect, without the politics of internal reporting lines.

Speed to Value

Hiring takes 3–6 months. Onboarding takes another 3. Logic Weave's GRC program is operational within weeks — policies reviewed, risk register active, compliance monitoring running. Your audit readiness doesn't wait for your hiring timeline.

Transition Support

When your organisation reaches the scale where a full-time hire is justified, we support the transition — handing over processes, documentation, and institutional knowledge so nothing is lost. We're building your capability, not creating dependency.

Common Questions

GRC as a Service — Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a retainer or project-based engagement?
Monthly retainer. Scope is defined upfront per tier and adjusted as needs evolve. No surprise fees, additional scope is priced separately and transparently.
Do we need Vanta or a GRC tool to use this service?
No. We work with Vanta natively, but we can run GRC without dedicated tooling or integrate with whatever platform you use. We recommend what fits your stage, not what earns us a referral.
Which tier is right for us?
Lite suits early-stage companies starting certification. Standard suits scale-ups with active certification and enterprise customers. Premium suits multi-framework requirements or complex vendor risk. We'll recommend honestly based on your actual situation.
Can GRC as a Service replace our internal compliance function?
For most SMBs, yes, until a full-time hire is justified. We run the program, handle questionnaires, manage audits, and report to leadership. When you're ready to build internally, we support the transition.
What frameworks do you cover?
ISO 27001, ACSC Essential Eight, SOC 2, NIST CSF, and CPS 234. We align to whichever frameworks your customers, regulators, or certification bodies require. Multi-framework coverage is available under the Premium tier.
How quickly can the GRC program be operational?
Within weeks. We review existing policies, stand up risk management processes, and begin compliance monitoring immediately. There's no 6-month ramp-up — your program is live from the first month of the retainer.
Do you handle security questionnaires and vendor due diligence?
Yes. Standard tier includes up to three customer questionnaires or due-diligence requests per year. Premium tier includes unlimited RFP and security questionnaire assistance. We respond on your behalf using your actual controls and evidence, not boilerplate.
How does GRC as a Service work alongside our existing ISO 27001 certification?
We maintain the ISMS between surveillance audits — running management reviews, tracking ISMS objectives, testing controls, and keeping evidence current. The goal is zero regression: when the auditor arrives, your program is already defensible, not scrambling to catch up.
