Solutions

Technology SMEs

Consolidate several overlapping obligations into one control set your team can actually maintain.

What this solution solves

Established technology SMEs typically carry more than one obligation at once: a certification to maintain, a government buyer with its own baseline, and a growing list of customer-specific commitments. Running them separately multiplies the workload without improving security.

Parallel programmes

Each framework has its own spreadsheet, owner and evidence folder.

Evidence collected repeatedly

The same access review is gathered three times for three audiences.

Maintenance falls behind

Certification is achieved and then decays until the surveillance audit approaches.

Reporting is manual

Leadership asks for status and someone spends two days assembling it.

How NOVA helps

Consolidation increases the consequence of each control, so ownership and approval must be explicit. NOVA accelerates your launch preparation, but final decisions remain human.

Cross-framework control reuse
Evidence mapped to multiple requirements
Review cadence and freshness tracking
Readiness reporting derived from live records

Workflow

A practical path

Consolidate the control set

Map every activated framework onto one shared set of controls with single owners.

Map evidence once

Point each artefact at every requirement it legitimately supports.

Set a maintenance cadence

Give controls review frequencies and evidence freshness expectations.

Report continuously

Replace the quarterly assembly exercise with reporting from live records.

Implementation

What the rollout looks like

Phase 1

Inventory existing controls and remove duplicates across programmes.

Phase 2

Activate all applicable frameworks and complete requirement mapping.

Phase 3

Establish maintenance cadence and reporting for leadership.

NOVA accelerates your launch preparation, but final decisions remain human.

Frameworks

Relevant frameworks

ISO/IEC 27001

The international standard for an information security management system, certified by an accredited body.

SOC 2

Service organisation reporting against the Trust Services Criteria, used widely in enterprise procurement.

Essential Eight

Eight prioritised mitigation strategies published by the Australian Cyber Security Centre, assessed by maturity level.

Capabilities

Capabilities that matter most

Framework management

Activate the frameworks your organisation works towards, record scope, and map requirements once instead of maintaining parallel programmes.

Controls and control testing

Define what each control is expected to do, who owns it, how often it is tested, and whether the last test passed.

Reporting

Readiness and coverage reporting derived from live control and evidence records, not from a separately maintained status sheet.
