ZenGRC

ZenGRC is a governance, risk and compliance platform founded in 2009 that brings audit management, risk management, vendor management, control assessments and compliance workflows into a single system. It is designed to help organizations move away from spreadsheets and point solutions, supporting frameworks such as ISO, SOC, HIPAA, PCI, NIST, CCPA and COBIT, with the option to upload and cross-map additional frameworks.

Core capabilities include audit initiation and issue tracking, automated evidence collection, real-time risk monitoring with dashboards and heatmaps, third-party risk assessments with vendor questionnaires and a secure vendor portal, and AI-powered control assessments that evaluate effectiveness and maturity with human review before implementation. The GRACI AI assistant handles program scoping, control design, audit structure generation and advisory queries, running on isolated instances trained only on customer data. Integrations span tools such as Jira, ServiceNow, Slack, AWS, Qualys, Tenable, Splunk, Tableau, Okta, Microsoft 365 and others across categories including access management, observability, project management and vulnerability scanning. An Integrated Trust Center portal lets organizations share security documentation with stakeholders under granular access controls.

ZenGRC is aimed at organizations maturing their GRC programs as well as those managing complex, multi-framework requirements, including lean teams without additional headcount. Pricing is structured as a single flat fee covering all critical features and frameworks, rather than separate charges per module; no free plan or trial is stated.
