Build Your Risk Confidence

The Platform That Turns

 Risk Into Confidence 

Finally, see your true risk picture. Gain the visibility and structure to reduce exposure,
tighten accountability, and move faster with confidence.

Confidence isn’t luck. 
 It’s structure. 

Your Risk Process, Simplified.

 When risks live in spreadsheets or static docs, things slip through the cracks. 


 Bringing everything together — risks, controls, frameworks,  and assessments, keeps your team ready instead of reactive. 

Identify Processes and Risks

Select and Import Frameworks

Map Controls

 

Assess Control Effectiveness

Record and Prioritize Issues

Monitor Progress

 

The Difference Is in the Details

Purpose-built for IT teams who want structure without slowdown. Each feature strengthens accountability, assurance, and compliance, so risk management feels less like chaos and more like control.

 Framework Mapping  Made Simple 

Map once, apply everywhere. BACKSTOP connects your controls to multiple frameworks like NIST or ISO, so gaps surface instantly and coverage stays consistent across audits.

Smarter Controls,  Clear  Accountability 

Assign ownership, collect evidence, and track every action without chasing folders or emails. BACKSTOP makes accountability part of the workflow, not an afterthought.

 Dual Assurance,  Your Way

Run self-assessments or full assurance cycles — all in one platform. Stay flexible without losing rigour, and keep oversight moving between internal teams and external auditors.

 Risk Posture  Dashboard

See where your biggest risks sit and how mitigation is tracking. One view shows what’s improving, what’s slipping, and where to focus next.

 Cybersecurity  Posture

Get a big-picture view of cyber exposures with the ability to drill into detail. Designed to help teams spot what matters most and take action fast.

 Assurance Monitoring  

Keep assurance continuous instead of seasonal. Monitor evidence, sign-offs, and performance year-round — so audits become confirmation, not chaos.

Features are great — but what really matters is how they work together.

 Here’s how BACKSTOP brings it all to life. 

Platform in Action

 Connecting people, processes, and proof so every part  your department moves with clarity and control. 

 From control updates to board-level insights, it keeps your risk management ecosystem in sync. 

  • Centralized Risk Management

    See the full picture without the spreadsheets.

    Link your risks, controls, frameworks and assessments in one place so you always know what’s covered, what’s not, and where to act next.

  • Organized Assurance

    Structure where it counts, flexibility where it matters.

    Stay on top of assurance without the clutter. BACKSTOP helps teams track sign-offs, manage reminders, and see what’s ready for review — all in one organized view.

  • Clear Accountability

    Visibility that builds confidence.

    Turn on sign-offs to make ownership visible. See who’s reviewed each control, what’s approved, and what still needs attention. Accountability becomes effortless when everyone’s role is clear.

  • Oversight Across the Organization

    One version of truth for every level.

    From IT teams to senior leaders, and the Board, BACKSTOP provides the right information — detailed data for IT teams, and clear insights for leadership.

  • Scalable Governance

    Built to grow with you.

    Whether you’re scaling operations or tightening oversight, it adapts to your complexity — not the other way around.

 From Risk to Resolution, 

It All Starts Here.
