ISMS.online vs verinice

ISMS.online

A dynamic risk register with treatment plus 'automated risk assessments and real-time monitoring' is more than a flat list, and the risk-policy-evidence link updating together is welcome. But the evidence never mentions an asset inventory, a documented risk methodology, protection-needs inheritance, or any incident workflow with reporting clocks — a big silence for an ISO 27001 platform, so it sits below the 5 anchor.

This is a genuine risk backbone: the Grundschutz domain captures target objects, threats, risks and measures, computes automatic protection-needs inheritance, and offers the Basis-, Standard- and Kernabsicherung paths a drafted officer like me can actually follow. The NIS2 domain names the statutory clocks — report after 24 hours, situation report after 72 — and adds supply-chain documentation and TOM capture. I found no public information on risk acceptance with named owners, which is the one piece of the chain the pages leave dark.

Pre-configured control templates, version history, approval workflow, automatic mapping to standards and owner assignment with review reminders are defaults a one-person security function can live with. But 'SoA' appears nowhere in the evidence, nor measure tracking, internal audit workflows or findings management — the control side reads as templated documents rather than an operable system.

verinice

Requirements and measures exist as first-class objects with input masks, TOMs are captured per business process, and a Realisierungs- und Prüfplan plus the stated path to a BSI Testat and an ISO 27001 certification tell me the control side is operable rather than a consultant's spreadsheet. I found no public information on a statement of applicability generated from live control status, on measure ownership with escalation, or on an internal-audit findings workflow, so I expect manual assembly when the auditor calls.

100+ frameworks including ISO 27001, ISO 27701, ISO 42001, SOC 2 and GDPR with NIS 2 named in the domain list, plus current ISO 27001:2022 content, is broad coverage in one platform. Cross-framework mapping rests on one 'automatic mapping to standards' claim for policies, and there is no TISAX/DORA/Grundschutz or documented update cadence, so it falls short of the 8-10 anchors.

verinice

Six regimes on one tool — BSI IT-Grundschutz with BSI standards 200-1/2/3 and 200-4, ISO 27001 through 27005 plus 22301, TISAX, NIS2 and GDPR — with the German NIS2 implementation law's deviations already integrated, which is the visible maintenance I want when a regime moves. NIS2 risk management is stated as integrated into the Grundschutz and ISO domains rather than being a separate island. I found no public information on DORA or SOC 2 content or on a documented catalog update cadence.

Versioned policies with approval workflow and evidence as a first-class object that ripples through the platform give a real trail, and the 11-step Assured Results Method with a 100% first-time pass claim suggests audit files actually get assembled. But auditor access roles, on-demand evidence packs and point-in-time ('state on date X') reporting are all silent, so it's the anchor-5 floor with manual assembly still implied.

verinice

The vendor states a BSI Testat and an ISO 27001 certification on the basis of IT-Grundschutz are possible with verinice, and a partner network stands by for certifications and audits — that proves audits pass, not that evidence is systematized. I found no public information on revision-safe change history, evidence collected per control, standard report generators or auditor access roles, so assembling the full audit file still looks like days of craft.

A public API and out-of-the-box connectors for ServiceNow, SharePoint, Teams and Google Drive cover the document and ticketing touchpoints. But the Drive integration is explicitly a file picker and link, not a feed, and there's no evidence of AD/Entra directory import, SSO, CMDB or automated evidence collection — the automation is compliance-task reminders, not re-keying removal.

verinice

The captured pages describe domains, bundles and shopping portals, and I found no public information on an API, directory or CMDB import, ticketing or scanner connectors, SSO or webhooks. For someone who would otherwise re-type the whole asset list by hand, that is a real cost on top of the day job. The open-source license lets me build my own bridge, but nothing published says one exists or is maintained.

Alliantist Ltd is a UK entity with a selectable EU data centre (Germany primary, Sweden backup) alongside UK/US/APAC options — EU hosting is available but not evidenced as default. The published subprocessor list is broad and US-heavy (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, AWS) and no public DPA appears in evidence, so my risk register sits with a UK company and wide non-EU processor exposure; the published list and EU region are what keep it at the anchor-3 level rather than lower.

verinice

A Göttingen GmbH operates the cloud itself under GDPR and BDSG with the Lower Saxony data protection commissioner named, and the on-premises GPLv3 option means my risk register can stay entirely on my own servers — that is the story I want. But I found no public information on where verinice.cloud is hosted or on its subprocessors, the ownership is unknown to me, and the vendor keeps a San Francisco office, so the cloud chain is only half documented.

The pricing page's entire offer is that pricing is 'bespoke to you', tailored via a quote and sales contact — no seat, tier or module numbers anywhere, so a small company can't compute or even budget-compare the invoice. The only public step before numbers is a 30-minute demo call, which is the anchor-0 'every configuration is a sales conversation' pattern with a published model description as the one small credit.

The three bundles carry real public numbers — ISO 27001 Bundle "from 5.750 € / year", IT-Grundschutz Bundle "from 5.750 € / year", ISO + IT-Grundschutz "from 8.530 € / year" — plus a free 60-day evaluation in the cloud before anyone signs anything. The "from" hides the scale basis, and I found no public prices for the add-on modules or the standalone NIS2 subscription, so the real invoice for my hundred-person shop isn't yet a two-minute exercise.
