ISO 27001

Enterprise-Grade Security Architecture

Built on Azure's sovereign cloud infrastructure with encryption at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3). Penetration-tested quarterly by independent CREST-certified assessors.

EU AI Act Aligned

Regulation-Ready by Design

Every AI recommendation carries a deterministic audit trail. Human confirmation gates enforce separation of duties. No black-box scoring — every output is explainable, challengeable, and court-admissible.

Multi-Jurisdictional

Data Sovereignty, Not Compromise

Deploy in UK, EU, GCC, or APAC regions with full data residency guarantees. Tenant-isolated architecture means your data never co-mingles. GDPR, PDPL, and NDMO compliant from day one.

WORM Audit Trail

Every Decision. Every Change. Immutable.

Write once, read many audit logs with SHA-256 integrity seals. State machine enforcement (DRAFT → IN_REVIEW → APPROVED → LOCKED) ensures no record is altered without a traceable, justified override.

Separation of Duties

Zero Trust, Zero Shortcuts

Role-based access with enforced SoD — the person who creates a record cannot approve it. Board-level permissions cascade through every module. No admin backdoors.

99.9% SLA

Enterprise Uptime, Not Startup Promises

Azure-hosted with geo-redundant failover, automated backups every 15 minutes, and a contractual SLA backed by financial penalties. Disaster recovery tested monthly, not annually.

Frequently AskedQuestions

What is SustainGRC?

Plus

SustainGRC is governance and sustainability intelligence infrastructure. We ensure non-financial data — across ESG, risk, audit, and supply chains — is accurate, traceable, and auditable before it is used for reporting or decision-making.

How we’re different:

Traditional platforms focus on producing reports and managing workflows, assuming the data is sound. SustainGRC ensures the data is sound first — then enables transformation, reporting, workflows, and decision-making on top.

What this means:

When data is questioned by auditors, regulators, or boards, organisations using SustainGRC can defend it with confidence.

    What ROI can we expect from implementing SustainGRC?

    Plus

    Visit our website and calculate your tailored ROI using our “ROI calculator”.
