Work with requirements and controls

Start with ready-made control libraries for ISO 27001, NIS2, NIST or GDPR, or create your own. Connect controls to risks and assets, document implementation and assign responsibilities.

Identify and remediate gaps

See which controls are missing or deficient. Create actions directly from the gap analysis and track implementation in your kanban. From identification to action in a few clicks.

Connect risks to controls

Use the Asset-Risk-Control framework to see which controls handle your risks. Understand how your security measures protect the business and identify where you need to strengthen.

Why control work often goes off track

The work gets stuck in Excel files and static documents. The result? Unclear responsibility and security that only exists on paper.

1

Controls in Excel chaos

Security controls and requirements live in Excel files, Word documents and someone's head. When you need to show which controls are actually in place, the hunt for updated information begins.

2

No connection between risk and control

You know you have security controls, but which risks do they actually handle? And which risks lack controls? Without clear connection, it becomes impossible to prioritize correctly.

3

Gaps that never become actions

You identify weaknesses in your security, but they get documented somewhere and forgotten. No one owns the problem, no deadline is set and six months later the gap is still there.

4

No one owns the controls

Who is actually responsible for ensuring the controls are implemented and working? When responsibility is unclear, things fall through the cracks and you get unpleasant surprises during audits.

Systematic security work. No CISO required.

Controls and gap analyses typically live in Excel files and static Word docs. The result is unclear ownership and security that only exists on paper. Here is what changes.

Start with ready templates

Pre-built control libraries for NIS2, ISO 27001 and GDPR mean you never start from a blank sheet. Adapt the templates to your organization and start identifying gaps the same day — no security background required.

Compile management reports from current data

Generate complete reports for management and auditors. Status, trends and maturity level all included — without rebuilding spreadsheets each quarter before a deadline.

Delegate without losing oversight

Assign individual controls to system owners or department heads so each person owns their area. You keep a central view of what is implemented, what is missing and who is behind schedule.

Keep data in the EU

All data is stored in Sweden. No third-country transfers to negotiate with legal — just straightforward data sovereignty that satisfies GDPR requirements without extra DPAs.

Frågor och svar

How do self-assessments work?

With ChainSec's self-assessment service, you can easily evaluate your information security by answering specific questions. Based on your answers, you get a clear picture of your strengths and weaknesses and can take necessary actions to strengthen security.

Can I export my answers as PDF?

Yes, when you have completed a self-assessment, you can export all your answers and results as a PDF. This gives you a simple and clear report that can be used for internal follow-up or external reporting.

What self-assessments do you offer?

We offer self-assessments for several standards and regulations, including NIS2 and GDPR. Each assessment is designed to help you gain insight into the requirements and security measures relevant to each standard.

What is a GAP analysis?

A GAP analysis in ChainSec means we analyze your assessment results and identify areas where your information security does not meet applicable requirements. We provide recommended actions to help you close these security gaps and improve your overall security.

Is ChainSec only for NIS2 and GDPR?

No, ChainSec is a flexible platform that can be used for several different compliance requirements within information security. You can even create your own custom assessments that can be filled in by your staff.

How long does a self-assessment take?

Most complete a basic assessment in 20-30 minutes. Compare that to weeks or months of consultant work - or worse, the cost of not having any assessment at all. The time required depends on how much detailed information you have available, but our system guides you through the entire process.

Do I need technical expertise to use ChainSec?

Absolutely not. ChainSec is built to be user-friendly even for non-technical users. Think of it as an expert guiding you through the process - all security knowledge is already built into the questions and action suggestions. If you can fill out a form, you can use ChainSec.
