Compare RealCISO vs. eramba

RealCISO is a compliance intelligence platform for two audiences: MSPs and MSSPs managing security across multiple clients, and enterprise teams running compliance in-house. MSPs, MSSPs, and security consultants use it to run compliance assessments, manage cyber risk, track remediation, and report to boards — all in one place. Assessments map directly to NIST CSF, SOC 2, NIST 800-171, HIPAA, CIS Controls, CMMC, and 30+ other frameworks. Instead of months of spreadsheet work, clients get a clear picture of where they stand and what to fix — in days. Over 3,000 security providers rely on RealCISO to deliver vCISO services at scale. Built by practitioners. Founded by Brian Haugli — former DoD, former VP & CSO at The Hanover Insurance Group, CISSP, and co-author of the NIST CSF book published by Wiley.

The driving force behind eramba's continuous development and enhancement is its worldwide community of users who take advantage of our straightforward and accessible code, documentation, forums, release strategies, and business approach. With over a decade of experience in managing community software, we have successfully transitioned to developing enterprise software that offers limitless email support, enhanced features, and consistent updates. Our remarkably straightforward business model and competitive pricing are specifically designed to sustain this initiative. Additionally, our community-curated repository of GRC templates is available for free to everyone, regardless of whether they use eramba. It seems unreasonable to charge for templates when you consider the vast intellectual contributions from the GRC community, which encompass compliance, internal controls, policies, mappings, questionnaires, and more. By keeping these resources open, we foster collaboration and innovation within the industry.
