GRC-as-a-Service
Your complete governance, risk and compliance function—without the overhead of building an in-house team.
CUNDware combines fractional CISO leadership, vendor risk management, compliance frameworks, GRC platform management, and audit support in one practical service for growing businesses.
One partner for your entire GRC program
From strategy to day-to-day execution, we help you build a compliance program that keeps pace with your business.
Fractional CISO & governance
Security strategy, roadmaps, policies, risk registers, leadership reporting, and practical governance aligned to business priorities.
Vendor risk management
Vendor intake and tiering, due diligence, security questionnaires, evidence reviews, remediation tracking, and recurring reassessments.
Frameworks & privacy
Readiness, control mapping, policies, evidence, and ongoing maintenance for ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 42001, SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, and CCPA/CPRA.
GRC platform management
Configuration and ongoing administration of Vanta, Drata, SecuFrames, and other suitable tools—including integrations, evidence workflows, control mapping, and monitoring.
Internal audit & audit support
Internal audit planning and testing, control walkthroughs, evidence preparation, remediation tracking, and coordination with independent external auditors.
Risk & continuous improvement
Maintain policies, exceptions, corrective actions, metrics, management reviews, and recurring control checks as requirements evolve.
A smarter alternative to hiring a GRC team
A dedicated hire can be valuable, but one person rarely covers every GRC discipline. Our managed model gives you flexible access to a broader mix of leadership and delivery skills—scaled to the work you need.
| Approach | Illustrative annual cost (CAD) | Typical trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| One in-house GRC professional | $140,000–$190,000+ | Dedicated capacity, but limited breadth and potential reliance on external specialists. |
| Small in-house GRC team (2–3 people) | $280,000–$500,000+ | More internal coverage, with higher hiring, benefits, management, and training costs. |
| CUNDware GRC-as-a-Service | $36,000–$96,000* | Flexible access to GRC leadership and delivery without building a full team. |
*Illustrative planning range equivalent to $3,000–$8,000 per month, not a published quote or guaranteed saving. Actual fees depend on company size, framework scope, risk complexity, audit timelines, and support hours. Software licences and external certification or attestation fees may be additional. Employment figures are broad planning estimates and vary by seniority and employer costs. We confirm scope and pricing before engagement.
