Governance, risk, and compliance that holds up when it's tested.
GRC built for the audit you haven't had yet.
PrismHarbor designs and operates GRC programs for organizations that can't afford ambiguity — mapping policy, risk, and evidence into one system, so audits, regulators, and boards get a consistent answer every time they ask.
What we're usually called in to fix
Most GRC problems aren't a framework problem — they're a connectivity problem. Evidence, ownership, and reporting were never linked in the first place.
Evidence rebuilt every audit cycle
Screenshots, spreadsheets, and email threads reassembled from scratch each season because nothing was kept current between audits.
See: Audit Readiness & ReportingA risk register no one consults
Risk documentation exists, but it's disconnected from how decisions actually get made, so it's stale by the time anyone asks for it.
See: Risk Assessment & ManagementThe same control, proven five different ways
Each framework was implemented in its own silo, so identical controls get re-documented separately for every certification.
See: Regulatory Compliance ConsultingFindings that recur year over year
The same audit finding reappears because remediation was never assigned an owner or tracked to closure.
See: Governance Program & PolicyA board that can't get a straight answer
Leadership asks how exposed the organization is and receives a forty-slide deck instead of a clear, defensible answer.
See: Governance Program & PolicyAI in production, ungoverned
Teams are already running AI models and agentic tools with no policy, ownership, or control set covering them.

Every engagement we run is a GRC engagement — including where AI governance and EU operational resilience law now sit in the stack.
Governance Program & Policy
For organizations where policy exists, but no one is accountable for it.
Policy architecture and decision rights that make security accountable to a named owner, plus board and executive reporting leadership can act on.
- Policy & standards architecture
- Security steering committees
- Board & executive reporting
Risk Assessment & Management
For organizations where the risk register is a spreadsheet no one opens.
Enterprise-wide risk and security-posture assessments that produce a register leadership reads, with treatment plans that get funded.
- Security & risk posture assessments
- Enterprise risk registers
- Third-party & vendor risk review
Regulatory Compliance Consulting
For organizations where every framework means proving the same control again.
Framework alignment across the regulations that apply to you — mapped once against a shared control set, maintained continuously.
- PCI DSS, GDPR & HIPAA alignment
- ISO 27001, SOC 2 & NIST readiness
- Cross-framework control mapping
Audit Readiness & Reporting
For organizations where the same finding shows up two years running.
Gap assessments and evidence packaged the way auditors expect, with a remediation roadmap and support through the audit itself.
- Compliance readiness reviews
- Gap analysis & remediation roadmaps
- Findings tracking to closure
Data Privacy & Regulatory Alignment
For organizations where the privacy policy hasn't matched reality in a year.
Privacy programs built to hold up under regulatory scrutiny, kept current as the business actually changes.
- Data privacy program design
- Regulatory gap & impact review
- Records of processing & data mapping
Continuous Compliance Monitoring
For organizations where "audit-ready" lasts one week a year.
GRC as an ongoing program, not an annual fire drill — controls tracked and evidence refreshed continuously.
- Continuous control monitoring
- Regulatory change tracking
- Recurring compliance reporting
AI & Emerging Tech Governance
For organizations where production AI has no policy, owner, or control set.
Governance for the models and agentic tools already running in your business, mapped to NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, and the EU AI Act.
- AI use-case inventory & risk tiering
- NIST AI RMF & ISO 42001 alignment
- Model & vendor AI due diligence
ICT & Third-Party Resilience
For organizations where a critical vendor outage becomes their outage.
Operational resilience and third-party risk work built for DORA and NIS2 — exit strategies and incident reporting that meets EU windows.
- DORA ICT risk management alignment
- NIS2 board accountability & scoping
- Critical third-party exit strategies
Regulatory Horizon Scanning
For organizations where a new regulation lands and the program finds out last.
Ongoing tracking of incoming rules — AI Act phase-ins, DORA updates, sector rulemaking — translated into program changes before enforcement.
- Regulatory change monitoring
- Applicability & impact assessment
- Executive briefings on what's changing
Nine frameworks, one shared control set
Current controls and evidence templates on file for each — ready before an audit is scheduled, not built after.
| Framework | Category | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| ISO/IEC 27001:2022 | Security Mgmt | Full ISMS build, Annex A control mapping, Stage 1 & 2 audit support. |
| AICPA SOC 2 | Security Mgmt | Type I & II, trust services criteria mapping across the organization. |
| NIST CSF 2.0 | Security Mgmt | Function-by-function maturity scoring with a remediation roadmap. |
| EU GDPR | Privacy | Records of processing, DPIAs, and breach-notification runbooks. |
| HIPAA | Privacy | Administrative, physical & technical safeguards for CEs and BAs. |
| PCI DSS 4.0 | Security Mgmt | Scoping, SAQ selection, QSA-ready evidence for cardholder environments. |
| EU DORA | Resilience | ICT risk management, resilience testing, third-party exit strategies. |
| EU NIS2 | Resilience | Board-level accountability and scoping for essential & important entities. |
| NIST AI RMF & ISO 42001 | AI Governance | AI risk tiering and management-system controls, mapped to the EU AI Act. |
How an engagement runs
No skipping ahead — you can't quantify a risk before it's been scoped, or monitor a control before it exists.
Scope & Gap Assessment
Every gap named in writing before remediation starts.
Remediation & Control Build
Policies and controls tied to a named owner and clause.
Evidence & Audit
Evidence packaged per framework; we're in the room with you.
Monitoring & Attestation
Controls stay current, so re-certification is a formality.
Selected engagements
Client details anonymized to protect confidentiality.
Sixteen facilities, one shared policy set. The breach-notification runbook was tested under real conditions three months after delivery — and held.
A first SOC 2 attempt had stalled for a year on evidence gaps. We rebuilt the control set and closed the audit in eleven weeks.
Two frameworks run against one control set instead of two, cutting the annual audit workload roughly in half.
Framework-agnostic, outcome-focused
Independent advisory
We don't resell a platform or a specific framework — recommendations aren't tied to a license.
One control set, every framework
Controls are mapped once and reused, so certifications compound instead of duplicating effort.
Certified practitioners
Engagement leads hold CISSP, CISA, CRISC, and CIPP/E credentials, not just platform training.
Continuous, not annual
Programs are built to stay current between audits, so re-certification is routine, not a scramble.
