Compare Guardiso vs. RealCISO

Guardiso is a comprehensive governance, risk, and compliance platform developed within the European Union, specifically designed to assist organizations navigating multiple regulatory landscapes. Its extensive control catalogue encompasses various frameworks, including ISO 27001, GDPR, NIS 2, DORA, TISAX, SOC 2, ISO 27701, and the EU AI Act, ensuring that compliance evidence generated for one standard fulfills the requirements of others. The platform features versioned policies with acknowledgment capabilities, as well as risk, evidence, and incident registers that facilitate regulatory reporting, internal audits, supplier assessments, and a trust centre. By integrating seamlessly with existing systems such as Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, AWS, Azure, GitHub, and Okta, Guardiso monitors security settings on a daily basis, documenting each outcome against the pertinent controls. Additionally, it addresses the Polish cybersecurity act, clarifying its applicability to an organization, outlining the associated responsibilities, and specifying the requirements that must be fulfilled. The software is fully operational in both Polish and English, catering to a diverse user base. Offering consulting services since 2018, Guardiso officially launched its platform in 2026 and is securely hosted in Poland, ensuring compliance with local data regulations and building trust with clients.

RealCISO is a compliance intelligence platform for two audiences: MSPs and MSSPs managing security across multiple clients, and enterprise teams running compliance in-house. MSPs, MSSPs, and security consultants use it to run compliance assessments, manage cyber risk, track remediation, and report to boards — all in one place. Assessments map directly to NIST CSF, SOC 2, NIST 800-171, HIPAA, CIS Controls, CMMC, and 30+ other frameworks. Instead of months of spreadsheet work, clients get a clear picture of where they stand and what to fix — in days. Over 3,000 security providers rely on RealCISO to deliver vCISO services at scale.
