GRC Advisory Service
Expert guidance to help you align governance, risk, and compliance strategies with your business goals
Practical insight for a complex landscape
Strong governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) practices are essential — but not every organisation has the time, expertise, or internal capacity to build them in-house. That’s where Syscomm’s GRC Advisory Service comes in.
We provide expert-level guidance and oversight across all areas of cyber security governance, risk management, and compliance — tailored to your environment, scaled to your needs, and always aligned to your business goals.
Whether you need a strategic sounding board, a temporary virtual CISO or DPO, or ongoing guidance across multiple workstreams, our advisory model gives you senior-level insight without the complexity of a full-time hire or long-term project.
What does GRC advisory cover?
Our advisory service spans the full GRC spectrum, including:
Compliance readiness and roadmap planning
Risk and Posture Assessment
Audit preparation and board reporting
Cyber security strategy and policy development
Support across supplier risk, awareness training, and documentation
Incident response guidance and regulatory engagement
Framework alignment (e.g. ISO 27001, NIST, Cyber Essentials)
Unlike static consultancy engagements, our support is flexible, responsive, and focused on what your organisation needs most — whether that’s quick-turnaround advice or a retained governance partner.
When should you use GRC advisory?
This service is designed for organisations that:
- Need GRC leadership but aren’t ready for a permanent hire
- Have security, compliance, or risk shared between departments
- Are preparing for a certification, audit, or funding milestone
- Want an independent view on current practices, policies, or programmes
- Are managing change — new leadership, acquisitions, technology rollouts, or incidents
An engagement models that fit you
Ad hoc advisory
Quick, expert input when you need it. Perfect for audits, policy reviews, or interpreting compliance requirements.
Project-based support
Structured guidance for specific GRC goals — like ISO 27001 alignment, risk programme design, or third-party assurance reviews.
Retained strategic partnership
Ongoing advisory at a cadence that works for you. We attend governance meetings, guide improvement cycles, and support leadership decision-making — becoming a trusted extension of your team.
What You’ll Get From Us
Each advisory relationship is shaped around your structure and objectives. Typical deliverables include:
- Maturity assessments and roadmaps

- Policy and control guidance
- Executive dashboards and board reporting
- Translation of technical data into leadership-level insight
