Approach Cyber partners with Formalize to simplify and strengthen GRC

Publication date

At Approach Cyber, we are committed to making Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) more effective, more accessible, and better aligned with real business needs. Today, we are proud to announce our partnership with Formalize, a sovereign GRC platform that perfectly complements our expertise and vision.

A sovereign and comprehensive GRC platform

Formalize is a sovereign GRC platform, an essential aspect for Approach Cyber and for many of our clients who prioritize data control, regulatory alignment, and European digital sovereignty.

The platform provides a complete and collaborative environment covering major frameworks and regulations such as CyberFundamentals (CyFun), DORA, ISO standards, and many others. It enables organisations to manage compliance, risk, and governance in a structured and centralised way, while ensuring seamless integration with existing tools.

Combining technology and human expertise

Technology alone is not enough. Compliance projects often struggle due to complexity, lack of guidance, or inefficient processes.

By combining Formalize’s powerful platform with the support of our GRC experts, experienced with both the tool and the practical implementation of regulatory frameworks, we simplify the journey for our clients.

Beyond the typical implementation and handover, they are able to leverage the platform to actively pilot and manage our clients’ information security governance through a GRC-as-a-Service or MSSP approach. This optimises costs and provides genuine peace of mind, allowing organisations to focus on what truly matters: their core business.

Making GRC practical and sustainable

Our partnership is built on a shared ambition: to make GRC manageable and sustainable for organisations of all sizes. By integrating expert guidance with a structured, collaborative platform, we transform compliance from a constraint into a strategic enabler.

At Approach Cyber, we believe the future of GRC lies in the smart combination of expertise and technology. Our collaboration with Formalize is a concrete step in that direction, helping our clients navigate complex regulatory environments with confidence and efficiency.
