GRC-as-a-Service

Governance, risk and compliance without the overhead

GRC shouldn’t be reactive or fragmented. Our GRC managed service provides structured governance, measurable risk management and continuous compliance oversight without needing to build a large internal team.

What is GRC-as-a-Service?

Security frameworks, customer questionnaires, audits and board reporting can quickly overwhelm internal teams. GRC-as-a-Service from Protos Networks gives you structured governance and compliance support in a predictable monthly package, powered by the industry-leading Vanta platform and delivered by experienced security professionals.

You choose the operating model that works for your business: from vCISO leadership and consultant days to ongoing GRC helpdesk support and full framework management. We become an extension of your team, helping you stay compliant, audit-ready and confident in your controls.

Service Features and Benefits

Flexible Operating Model

Select the right blend of vCISO advisory, consultancy days, ongoing governance support and compliance tooling, all delivered under one monthly agreement.

Powered by Vanta

We leverage Vanta’s automation and evidence-collection capabilities to streamline compliance management, reduce manual effort, and maintain continuous visibility across your controls.

Framework Management

Whether you’re working towards ISO 27001, NIS 2, GDPR, CAF or DCC, we help implement, manage and maintain the frameworks that matter to your business.

Compliance Query Support

Customer security questionnaires, RFP responses and due diligence requests can be time-consuming. We help you respond accurately and efficiently, protecting revenue opportunities.

Audit & Assurance Readiness

From internal audits to supply chain assessments, we ensure your documentation, policies and controls stand up to scrutiny, before an external auditor ever arrives.

Ongoing Documentation Review

We maintain and update policies, risk registers and governance artefacts to ensure they reflect operational reality and evolving regulatory requirements.

How it Works

We will conduct an assessment of your organisation and understand your governance, risk and compliance requirements. We will also identify which standards, regulations or frameworks your organisation needs to comply with. From here, we will also discuss your consultancy needs – whether it be a virtual Chief Information Security Officer (vCISO), general consultant time, or ISMS Manager.

We will then provide you with a proposal for a service package which includes your consultancy time, unlimited GRC helpdesk support and Vanta licencing, which we provide as a Vanta Managed Services Provider. All of this will be rolled into a single monthly payment.

Your monthly package can include:

  • Dedicated vCISO advisory sessions
  • Consultant days for implementation and remediation
  • GRC helpdesk support for day-to-day compliance queries
  • Policy development and review
  • Risk management and board-level reporting
  • Internal audit support
  • Supply chain risk and vendor assurance
  • Framework roadmap planning
  • Continuous compliance monitoring via Vanta
