## How Secure iQube helps

1. **Applicability and scoping**: Confirm whether and how the law applies to you, entities, data, systems, roles and territories.
2. **Data and process mapping**: Build a record of processing or control inventory so obligations can be tied to real systems and owners.
3. **Gap assessment**: Measure current practice against each obligation and rank the gaps by legal and business risk.
4. **Remediation roadmap**: Policies, notices, contracts, technical controls and governance, sequenced so the highest risks close first.
5. **Evidence and ongoing monitoring**: A compliance calendar, metrics and periodic reviews so you can demonstrate compliance to a regulator or customer at any time.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is ISO 27001 enough for NIS2?

ISO 27001 covers much of NIS2’s risk management measures, but national laws add requirements such as registration, specific incident reporting timelines and management training. We map the gaps.
