The Drafted IT Officer

Weighted verdict

SME IT admin who became the information security officer by an email from management. Optimizes for guided setup, sane defaults, plain-language controls and a tool that runs alongside the day job. Rejects platforms that assume a security team and a consultant on retainer.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Scored by The Drafted IT Officer

Asset & risk management depth

How this is scored

The ISMS core: asset inventory, risk methodology (identification, assessment, treatment), protection-needs inheritance, incident handling with statutory clocks.

0 — No ISMS substance; "information security" is a chapter in the marketing site.

3 — A flat risk list and an asset spreadsheet import; no treatment tracking, no inheritance, incidents live in the ticket system.

5 — Asset and risk management with configurable matrices and treatment tracking; basic incident handling; inheritance and aggregation need manual work.

8 — A real risk backbone: documented methodology (ISO 27005 or equivalent), inherited protection needs across asset relations, incident workflows with statutory reporting clocks (NIS2 24h/72h), risk acceptance with ownership.

10 — Risk management a certifier works inside: complete asset-risk-treatment chain with inheritance, continuity planning, incident reporting with authority export, and risk reporting the executive level actually reads.

Report an error

The Drafted IT Officer

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. 2 5 1

Controls, SoA & measures

How this is scored

Control catalogs, statement of applicability, measure tracking and internal audit — whether the control side of the ISMS is operable or a checklist.

0 — A static control checklist; applicability, implementation status and evidence are the consultant's spreadsheet.

3 — Control catalogs with status fields, but no SoA generation, no measure ownership, no link between controls and risks.

5 — Controls linked to risks and measures with owners and due dates; SoA producible with manual assembly; internal audit supported by checklists.

8 — SoA on demand from live control status, measure tracking with delegation and escalation, internal audit workflows with findings management, controls carrying their own evidence.

10 — The control fabric as a living system: catalog updates versioned, SoA always current, audit programs with recurring schedules, and every control answerable with linked evidence at any moment.

Report an error

The Drafted IT Officer

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. 2 1

Report an error

Framework & standard coverage

How this is scored

Which regimes the product actually operationalizes — ISO 27001, NIS2, TISAX/VDA ISA, DORA, BSI IT-Grundschutz, SOC 2 — and whether one control maps across them or each framework is a fresh island.

0 — One framework, hard-coded; anything else is "on the roadmap".

3 — Two or three frameworks as separate checklists; the same control is answered once per framework.

5 — The major regimes for its market with partial cross-mapping; newer regimes (NIS2, DORA) present as content packs of varying depth.

8 — Broad current coverage including NIS2/TISAX/DORA where relevant, one-control-many-frameworks mapping, and visible maintenance as regimes evolve.

10 — Framework coverage as a living product: dozens of regimes, genuine multi-compliance mapping on one data basis, per-industry profiles, and documented update cadence when the standard moves.

Report an error

The Drafted IT Officer

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. 2 5 1

Report an error

Audit readiness & evidence

How this is scored

Whether the system produces defensible proof: revision-safe history, evidence collection, reports for auditors, authorities and management.

0 — Exports are screenshots; history is overwritten in place.

3 — PDF reports exist but evidence is attached ad hoc and changes leave no reliable trail.

5 — Versioned records, standard report generators, evidence attachments per control; assembling a full audit file still takes days.

8 — Revision-safe change history, audit-scoped evidence packs on demand, management reports current at a click, auditor access roles.

10 — Audit readiness as a standing state: continuous evidence status per framework and scope, exportable proof packs an external auditor accepts as-is, and a defensible answer to "show me the state on date X".

Report an error

The Drafted IT Officer

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. 5 1

Report an error

Integrations & automation

How this is scored

Whether the platform feeds from the real IT estate — directory import, CMDB, ticketing, scanners, API — and automates evidence collection instead of re-typing it.

0 — A closed island: manual entry in, PDF out, no API.

3 — CSV/Excel import and export; no live connections, no API worth the name.

5 — Directory import (AD/Entra), a documented REST API for core objects, a handful of native connectors (ticketing, CMDB or SSO); automation is reminders and recurrence.

8 — Real connector set (Jira/ServiceNow-class ticketing, CMDB, cloud and endpoint sources), webhooks, SSO/SCIM, automated evidence tests with human review.

10 — The platform behaves like infrastructure: API parity for the data model, event streams, continuous control monitoring against the live estate, and automation that measurably removes the recurring toil rather than renaming it.

Report an error

The Drafted IT Officer

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. 2 3 4

Report an error

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Where the security posture of the whole company actually lives and under whose law — entity, hosting, subprocessors, DPA. The risk register is itself a target.

0 — Non-EU entity, non-EU-default hosting, no public DPA or subprocessor list — for the system holding your risk register.

3 — A DPA exists and an EU region is available on request or on top tiers; subprocessor exposure to US CLOUD Act reach is broad or undocumented.

5 — EU hosting is the default, DPA and subprocessor list published; the vendor or a critical subprocessor is still within non-European jurisdictional reach.

8 — EU entity, EU hosting with named data centers, published subprocessor list free of content-touching non-EU processors, DPA and TOMs public.

10 — Jurisdictionally clean end to end: European ownership, EU-only hosting and subprocessors, on-premises or sovereign-cloud options, and the whole chain documented publicly.

Report an error

The Drafted IT Officer

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. 3 4

Pricing transparency not rated — the vendor publishes no price

How this is scored

Whether a buyer can compute the real invoice — per module, per entity, per year, with consulting unbundled — from public pages alone. Unpublished pricing is the B2B norm in this market, so this criterion describes rather than condemns; the benches weight it accordingly.

0 — No public prices at all; every configuration is a sales conversation.

3 — An entry price exists, but module add-ons, scale steps or bundled consulting make the real total incomputable.

5 — Most editions carry real numbers with billing period stated and software separated from services; at least one commonly needed module or scale step is unpriced.

8 — Every edition and module priced publicly with entity/user boundaries and setup fees stated; only genuine corporate-group contracts are custom.

10 — Complete price computability: modules, scale steps, service packages and renewal rules public, so the invoice for a 100-employee company and a certification project is a two-minute exercise.

Report an error

The Drafted IT Officer

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. 2 1

European sovereignty — proven facts

3 of 4 dimensions proven

Built only from facts shown on the vendor's own pages. A dimension we could not prove is left open, not scored as zero.

Legal entity	Incorporated in GB ⚠ unverified	1/3 pts	4 Report an error
Ownership	Not determined	—	uncited Report an error
Data residency	EU optional ⚠ unverified	1/3 pts	4 Report an error

Where this could be wrong

Evidence ages. The oldest capture behind this page is from 11 Sep 2026. Vendors change pricing and policies without notice; every fact reflects its source as of the capture date shown in the registry.
Weak sourcing — Legal entity. Alliantist is registered in the United Kingdom, which is outside the EU since Brexit.
Weak sourcing — Data residency. The notice lists UK, EU, APAC and US data centres for different customers without stating which region is the default assignment, so EU hosting is one choice among several.
Weak sourcing — Subprocessors. The list is scoped to Alliantist's role as Data Controller and mixes marketing tools with service providers, so which of these US-headquartered firms process customer data inside the product is not separated out; the product hosting itself is only described as 'a third-party data centre' and AWS is noted as 'UK and Ireland'.
AI can misread a source. Extraction and judgement are automated; a citation guarantees traceability, not infallibility. If something here is wrong, say so — no account needed, every report is decided within 5 business days, and accepted corrections are published.
