Governance, Risk & Compliance — frequently asked questions
Direct answers to the questions teams ask before engaging a governance, risk & compliance consultant on TalvexIT.
What compliance frameworks are covered?
ISO 27001 / 27002, SOC 2 (Type I & II), Australia Essential Eight (ML1/ML2/ML3), ISM (Information Security Manual), APRA CPS 234, PCI-DSS, NIST CSF, and HIPAA. Consultants typically specialise in 2–3 frameworks deeply and have audit-ready experience.
Can I get help with audit preparation?
Yes — pre-audit readiness assessments, evidence-pack preparation, control-gap remediation, and audit-day support are standard fixed-scope engagements. Outputs include a readiness scorecard, a remediated control library, and an audit-ready evidence repository.
Do consultants implement controls or just assess?
Both. Many GRC consultants pair with technical specialists (cybersecurity, IAM, data) to actually implement controls — not just point at gaps. Engagement scope makes the split explicit so you know what assessment work and what implementation work is included.
