Copla is a GRC platform that runs automated risk assessment across your entire business — IT assets, third parties, and operations — and personalises every result to how you actually operate. Risks carry through to a named owner, with controls and evidence attached, and every judgement call supported by in-house CISOs. That combination is what helps companies manage risk day to day.
Trusted by companies of every size - from early-stage startups to established financial institutions - to manage risks across DORA, NIS2, ISO 27001 and SOC 2.
Copla starts with the assets, third parties, and operations your business depends on. It evaluates their impact, turns that into risk exposure, and maps the right controls to each risk. Owners are assigned automatically, evidence is collected against those controls, and in-house CISOs review the judgement calls before they count.
Mapped through integrations, not inventoried by hand, so asset management stays current.
Risk identification and scoring against real business impact, structured against the regulatory requirements that ask for them.
Sized to your risk profile and mapped to what they satisfy, not a generic checklist.
Turn controls into tasks, collect evidence, and guide your team through what's left.

Most teams manage risks one of three ways, and each leaves the same hole. Spreadsheets get scored by instinct and rebuilt before an audit. Security tools find problems but produce tickets, not a governed risk register. Traditional enterprise GRC platforms hold everything but need a risk function to fill them in.
1
Security issues get fixed and tickets get closed, but the risk register often stays the same. The work is done, yet the recorded risk no longer reflects reality.
2
A critical finding on a low-impact system may matter less than a moderate issue on a business-critical one. Without business context, teams end up prioritising technical severity instead of actual exposure.
3
Registers get reviewed annually while business operations change monthly. New third parties, systems and controls arrive faster than anyone updates the risk data.
4
When an auditor asks how a risk was scored, treated, and approved, the answer is scattered across tickets, inboxes, and people’s memory.

Configuration project
The same risks, security controls and evidence answer to more than one regulation. Copla ships with DORA, NIS2, ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS and MiCA built in, and maps each control to every regulatory requirement it satisfies. Need an industry framework that isn't listed? Copla builds it.
less compliance work
Audit-ready at any point in time
Success rate in audits & certifications
Six steps, built around your environment instead of a generic checklist. Most risk management solutions hand you every task in a framework and let you work out which ones apply. Copla starts from your IT assets, third parties and business impact, and builds only the work your risk profile requires.
A centralized repository of the systems, third parties and processes you depend on, populated through integrations and topped up manually.
BIA sets which business operations are critical and the recovery objectives behind your operational resilience obligations. Copla drafts it; you or a Copla CISO confirm every row.
Risk scoring runs consistently on likelihood and impact. Each risk gets a named owner and the security controls that mitigate it, carried through treatment to a residual score, with financial impact quantified in monetary value.
Copla identifies what's missing against DORA, NIS2 and ISO 27001 and turns each gap into a task with an owner and a deadline - one fix, credited across every framework it touches.
Where a gap needs a document, Copla drafts it from your real inputs rather than pre built templates, then runs it through review, approval and version control.
Evidence attaches to the control and risk it proves, expiring records trigger reminders, and CISOs check control effectiveness before it counts. Auditors get a structured evidence pack from the audit room.
Teams cut the manual side of risk work by up to 80% and reach audit readiness in a fraction of the usual time.
Most risk management software leaves scanning and testing to you, then expects the findings moved into your risk register by hand. Copla runs that work as a service, and the results land in the same system as the risk they affect.
Scheduled scans across your cloud environments and external surface, delivered as a prioritised technical report plus an audit-ready summary mapped to ISO 27001, DORA, NIS2 and SOC 2.
Expert-led testing of your applications, networks and cloud infrastructure, with vulnerabilities ranked by impact and tracked through remediation efforts and re-testing - a closed loop, not a PDF in a folder "Proof we tried".
Copla's in-house CISOs review your risk assessment, validate gaps and sit with you through the audit - available when a decision needs judgement, without a standing consulting contract.
Every risk traces back to a real IT asset and an analysed business impact, not a guess.
Business impact analysis sets criticality, so effort goes to what carries business operations.
Gaps turn into owned, dated tasks, and closing them leaves evidence behind.
Overlapping regulatory requirements share security controls and evidence, so the work counts more than once.
Fewer vendors, and no evidence handoff between them.
Copla's CISOs review the risk data so no team is left alone with the hardest calls.
Get started
Copla connects your IT assets and business impact to scored risks, security controls and evidence - with CISO review included. Book a demo and see the risk register it builds for your environment.
IT risk management software identifies IT and cyber risks, ties them to the assets and third parties behind them, scores exposure, assigns security controls and owners, and produces evidence for auditors. Copla builds that from a business impact analysis, not a template risk register.
Cybersecurity risks and emerging threats, operational risk from system failures and outages, compliance risk against regulatory standards, third party risk from vendors, and the exposure carried by cloud environments. Copla holds all of them in one risk register rather than a tool per category, including the security incidents and data breaches that follow when controls fail.
Cyber risk management covers the security controls that stop an attack. IT risk management is the governance, risk and compliance layer above it: which risks exist across the entire organization, how likely and how costly they are, whether controls work, and what gets reported. Copla is that layer, and your security tools feed it.
No. Copla sits above your security tools and turns their findings into a governed risk register with owners, treatment and evidence - what a supervisor asks for.
Through business impact analysis. It sets which business operations are critical, so prioritisation follows real exposure rather than technical severity alone.
Consistently, on likelihood and impact, with a named owner and a residual score once treatment is applied. Each risk carries a named owner from identification through to closure.
Yes. Cyber risk quantification attaches a monetary value to each risk, so decision making at board level starts from what failure costs rather than a colour on a heat map.
Continuously rather than annually. Copla re-evaluates risks when IT assets, third parties or controls change, and surfaces new risk events and emerging threats as they arrive, so the risk posture reflects the business now.
A ransomware incident is an IT risk, an operational risk and a financial one at the same time. Copla scores technology exposure so it can sit inside the enterprise risk register the board already reads, instead of arriving as a separate technical report.
DORA, NIS2, ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, MiCA and about 50 others are built in, with security controls mapped across all of them so one piece of work counts more than once.
Yes. Risks link to live IT assets, risk scoring follows one method, owners are named, and evidence attaches where it belongs - current by default.
Yes. Third parties sit in the same asset register as your systems, carry their own risks and controls, and appear in the same risk posture your board sees.
Yes, as scheduled services from Copla's team. Findings and remediation efforts land in the same system as your risk register.
No security team is required. Copla can be managed by an internal owner, while Copla’s CISOs review your risk posture, validate gaps, and check control effectiveness as part of the platform.
