October 2026 4 entries

Training videos with the European AI label and one film per language

A training video can now carry an English and a Portuguese film, and each learner watches the one of the language they use, without losing progress when the language changes. Videos produced with artificial intelligence show the European AI label, say which parts were produced with AI and who reviewed and validated the content, in line with the transparency obligations of the AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, article 50). Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.6.3 (Information security awareness, education and training).

Regulatory notification for NIS2, GDPR, the AI Act and the Cyber Resilience Act

Your organisation can now record which of NIS2, the GDPR, the AI Act and the Cyber Resilience Act apply to it, with the people designated for each. Every incident opens a track per applicable regime, where the designated person confirms, with the legal basis beside it, whether the regime applies, and each submission is prepared in the structure of the authority's own form, with reminders before every deadline: NIS2 (article 23) through Decreto-Lei n.º 125/2025, the GDPR (articles 33 and 34), the AI Act (article 73) and the Cyber Resilience Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/2847, article 14). The reporting deadlines of DORA and of the Swift Customer Security Programme are tracked as well. Performance against the organisation's targets is measured, and a personal data breach is recorded once for incidents and privacy alike. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.5.5 (Contact with authorities), A.5.26 and A.5.31.

One register of reading confirmations

Your organisation can now follow, for each person and each policy or procedure that requires it, whether reading was confirmed, is pending, overdue or paused during an absence. Previous versions and retired documents keep their confirmations, so it is always possible to show who confirmed each version and who had not. What is shown can be downloaded as PDF or Excel. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.5.1 (Policies for information security) and clause 7.3 (Awareness).

Change management for normal, standard and emergency changes

Every change now has an independent security reviewer and follows the path that fits it: a decision by the change advisory board, a pre-approved standard change, a low-risk change decided by its owner, or an expedited emergency path ratified afterwards. A structured post-implementation review closes the loop with owned corrective actions, risks and opportunities can be recorded straight from a change, and the formal approval and acceptance of a customer are kept with their evidence. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.8.32 (Change management).

September 2026 7 entries

Core ISMS documents written and approved in the platform

The description of the information systems, the internal audit programme and the security roles and responsibilities are now written in the platform, approved version by version, in English and Portuguese, and downloaded as PDF. The audit schedule is read live from the audits, and each approved version stays exactly as it was approved. These are the documents a certification body asks to see. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 clauses 4.3, 5.3, 7.5 and 9.2.

Risk treatment guided by Annex A and approved by management

Each treatment plan now presents the Annex A controls that can reduce that risk, with their implementation status. The member of management who approved each version of the risk assessment is recorded on it and on its official PDF, and a residual risk that remains unacceptable requires management approval with a written justification. Supports the risk-management measures and management accountability of NIS2 (articles 20 and 21). Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 clauses 6.1.2 and 6.1.3 (Information security risk assessment and treatment).

Access management, from request to certification

A central register now shows who has access to which system, at which level, from granting to revocation, for applications as well as buildings and rooms. Accesses are requested and approved in the platform, joiners, movers and leavers drive what is granted and removed, and certification campaigns ask the right reviewers to confirm what is still needed, closing with an evidence pack ready for audit. Account lists exported from each system can be imported to reconcile the register. Supports the access control measures of NIS2 (article 21(2)(i)). Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.5.15, A.5.16, A.5.18, A.7.2 and A.8.2.

One security review for applications, development and projects

Security reviews of acquired applications, software development and projects now share one questionnaire that adapts to the answers, so questions about personal data, cloud, suppliers or artificial intelligence only appear when they apply. Each review ends with what the initiative has to comply with, frozen when it is signed, and gaps can be promoted to the risk register. It identifies prohibited practices and high-risk uses of artificial intelligence under the AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, article 5 and Annex III) and supports the supply chain and secure acquisition and development measures of NIS2 (article 21(2)(d) and (e)). Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.5.8 (Information security in project management), A.8.25 (Secure development life cycle) and A.8.26 (Application security requirements).

Segregation of duties across accesses and roles

Your organisation can now define which combinations must not be held by the same person, whether accesses, roles in a project or a review, personal capabilities or membership of a governance body. Requests and records are checked as they are made, and every conflict found is worked to an auditable outcome: removing one side, documenting a compensating control with an owner and a review date, or covering it with an approved exception. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.5.3 (Segregation of duties).

Full version history for policies and procedures

Every policy and procedure now keeps all its versions. A new version goes through review and approval before it replaces the one in force, reviewers and approvers see exactly what changed, any two versions can be compared, and a document that no longer applies is retired with its text kept on record. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 clause 7.5 (Documented information) and A.5.37 (Documented operating procedures).

Incident management, from report to lessons learned

Anyone in your organisation can now report a security event, and the response team turns it into an incident when it matters. Each incident keeps its life cycle, response actions, evidence with chain of custody and the deadlines to notify the authorities. A library of response guides, one per kind of incident, turns the matching steps into actions to assign and track. Supports the incident reporting duties of NIS2 (article 23) and Decreto-Lei n.º 125/2025. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.5.24 to A.5.28 and A.6.8 (Information security event reporting).

July 2026 2 entries

Audit programme and follow-up of findings

Your organisation can now plan each audit with its scope, lead auditor and dates, and trace every finding to the audit that raised it. Findings are followed over time with dated notes while the original deadline is always kept, and can be promoted to the risk or opportunity register when they need treatment. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 clause 9.2 (Internal audit) and A.5.35 (Independent review of information security).

Several standards side by side, ISO 9001 included

Your organisation can now tell the platform which standards it follows, and menus and requirements adjust to show only what is relevant. Quality management under ISO 9001 joins ISO/IEC 27001, the NIS2 Directive (EU) 2022/2555 and its Portuguese transposition, Decreto-Lei n.º 125/2025, so the context, objectives, internal audits and improvement actions are reused across both certifications instead of being kept twice.

June 2026 1 entry

Register of documented information

The documents your ISMS controls are now gathered in one register, each with its version, approver, approval date and next review. Documents kept outside the platform can be added by hand, and the full register can be exported as a PDF for auditors. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 clause 7.5 (Documented information).

May 2026 19 entries

The context of the organisation in one approved document

Your organisation can now document its context in a single versioned document, covering scope, interested parties, governance and the strategic risks and opportunities that follow from them. Each version goes through approval and earlier decisions remain visible. Committees and boards can be defined with their members and named as approvers. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 clauses 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3.

Opportunities managed alongside risks

Your organisation can now identify, score, decide on and follow opportunities to closure in the same way as risks, in a single register. Audit findings and operational reviews can feed either side, and any risk or opportunity can be marked as strategic. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 clause 6.1 (Actions to address risks and opportunities).

Privacy & GDPR module

New Privacy & GDPR module — a single area for everything GDPR your organisation has to manage: Impact Assessments, Records of Processing, personal data breaches and data-subject requests. Each artefact gets a structured review covering scope, lawful basis, data categories and safeguards, signed off by the people accountable for it. Designed to demonstrate, at audit time, that the full scope of GDPR obligations is being managed in one place, with an immutable trail for the supervisory authority. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.5.34 (Privacy and protection of PII), A.5.24 and A.5.26 (Information security incident management).

Project security management enhancement

Enhanced the existing Project Management module to support information security throughout the project lifecycle, ensuring that security requirements are identified, assessed, approved and monitored from project initiation to delivery. The enhancement introduces structured security governance within projects, helping organisations demonstrate that information security is consistently integrated into project activities and decision-making processes. Designed to support compliance with ISO/IEC 27001 control A.5.8 (Information security in project management), while also supporting secure application and development practices where applicable.

Development Reviews module

New Development Reviews module — a dedicated place to record the security review of every in-house development task. Each task gets a structured review covering secure coding, access and authorisation, logging and traceability, and testing, signed off by the people accountable for it. Designed to demonstrate, at audit time, that the security posture of every change to the team's code has been assessed, approved, and kept on file. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.8.26 (Application security requirements) and A.8.28 (Secure coding).

Application Reviews module

New Application Reviews module — a dedicated place to record the security review of every application your organisation acquires or operates. Each application gets a structured review covering security requirements, access and data, secure coding and operation, signed off by the people accountable for it. Designed to demonstrate, at audit time, that the security posture of every application in your scope has been assessed, approved, and kept on file. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.8.26 (Application security requirements) and A.8.28 (Secure coding).

A new Governance area lists the COBIT processes

Your organisation can now adopt COBIT processes within its ISMS. A new Governance area presents every process end-to-end and exports each one as a PDF for an audit pack.

Procedures module

A dedicated Procedures module is now available alongside Policies, sharing the same structured authoring experience but carrying its own lifecycle — drafting, approval, acknowledgement and reminders — so operating procedures live as first-class documents rather than annexes of policies. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.5.37 (Documented operating procedures).

User manuals for Policies and Procedures

Two new in-app user manuals — one for Policies, one for Procedures — guide authors through the concepts, the authoring workflow and the approval and acknowledgement flows, with a one-click PDF export ready to attach as evidence of staff awareness in ISO/IEC 27001 audits.

Risk exposure heat map on the dashboard

A new 5×5 heat map on the dashboard shows how risks are distributed across likelihood and impact, with bubble size proportional to volume and colour coded by severity. Clicking a cell drills through to the matching risks, so attention is directed to the corners that need it most. Supports ISO/IEC 27001 6.1.2 (Information security risk assessment) and the day-to-day prioritisation work it implies.

In-app user manuals across critical modules

Risk Management, Business Continuity (BIA), Joiner-Mover-Leaver, Privileged Access, Asset Inventory and Security Exceptions now ship with a built-in user manual and one-click PDF export. Manual views are recorded in the audit log, so they can be attached as evidence of staff awareness in audits and certifications.

Configurable brand palette

Your organisation can now adopt a custom brand colour from an 8-swatch palette, with a default set in Application Settings. The selection propagates consistently across components: buttons, badges, charts, pagination, links and form controls — so partners and resellers can present Infosec Tools in their own visual identity.

Auditable email pipeline

Every outbound message — including authentication codes and scheduled reports — now passes through a central, append-only audit log, ensuring end-to-end traceability of platform communications.

User absence and obligation pausing

Users can now be flagged as absent from a configurable catalogue of reasons — parental leave, sick leave, sabbatical and other long-form absences. While the user is absent, recurring obligations such as policy acknowledgements, training reminders and periodic reviews are paused automatically, and the absence history is preserved for auditable continuity. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.6.5 (Responsibilities after termination or change of employment) in spirit.

Privileged Access management

A dedicated lifecycle module for privileged accounts — request, multi-step approval, periodic review and automatic revocation when access overstays its approved period. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.5.18 (Access rights) and A.8.2 (Privileged access rights).

Asset inventory

A configurable asset inventory with dynamic asset types, extensible custom fields, warranty-expiry reminders and a dashboard with category and value breakdowns. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.5.9 (Inventory of information and other associated assets) and A.5.10 (Acceptable use of information and other associated assets).

Joiner-Mover-Leaver (JML) module

An automated lifecycle module for staff onboarding, role changes and offboarding — configurable task templates per case type, scheduled reminders, dashboard alerts for open and overdue tasks, and a built-in user manual. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.5.16 (Identity management) and A.6.6 (Confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements).

Tamper-evident versioning for Risk Assessment and Statement of Applicability

Each Risk Assessment and Statement of Applicability release is now captured as an immutable snapshot, encrypted at rest and recorded with cryptographic integrity verification. Supports controls A.5.31 and A.8.34 of ISO/IEC 27001 by providing tamper-evident evidence of the organisation's position at any point in time.

Business Continuity (BIA) module

Business Impact Analysis aligned with ISO 22301 — configurable catalogues for processes, dependencies and impact criteria; per-asset assessments capturing RTO and RPO; drill-down reports; and a built-in user manual.

April 2026 6 entries

User impersonation (Test as user)

Authorised operators can temporarily simulate another user's session for testing and support purposes, without altering that user's profile. Every action performed during the simulation is recorded under both identities, ensuring full audit traceability. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.5.16 (Identity management), A.8.15 (Logging) and A.8.34 (Protection of information systems during audit testing). The simulation expires automatically after inactivity.

Multi-factor authentication (TOTP)

Multi-factor authentication using Time-based One-Time Passwords (TOTP) through mobile authenticator apps. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.8.5 (Secure authentication).

Right to erasure (GDPR Art. 17)

Right-to-erasure (GDPR Art. 17 / Lei 58/2019) requests are now managed end-to-end — registration, traceability and resolution — through anonymisation of personal data and permanent account deactivation, while preserving the audit history required for accountability.

Training and awareness module

A training and awareness module for planning, assigning and tracking information security activities — video and document content, certificate issuance, and per-user progress tracking. Aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 A.6.3 (Information security awareness, education and training).

Security Exceptions module

A formal Security Exceptions module for documented deviations from policies, controls and compliance obligations — each exception captures business justification, compensating controls and a risk assessment, runs through a configurable multi-step approval chain, and is tracked through its effective period with automatic expiry reminders and renewal support.

Configurable email notifications

Email notifications across the platform are managed from a single configuration area, with per-event content customisation and a built-in test-send capability, enabling consistent communication with users across every module.
