Cyber Security Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) Services
Virtuelle Group helps Australian organisations turn GRC from “paper compliance” into operational resilience. We align governance, risk and compliance to the frameworks your customers, regulators, and boards care about -APRA CPS 230, APRA CPS 234, DISP, ISO 27001, ASD Essential Eight, and Privacy/NDB – and drive the evidence and remediation to closure, so you can stand behind your posture with confidence.
Turn Unknowns into Action & Evidence
- Board-ready risk and compliance reporting – what matters, what’s changing and what’s next
- Control mapping and evidence pack structure for auditors, customers and Defence/regulated stakeholders
- BCP and operational resilience artefacts for CPS 230 – services, dependencies, tolerances, testing plan
- Information security governance and assurance inputs for CPS 234
- DISP readiness uplift plan and documentation support
- A prioritised remediation backlog designed to drive closure, not shelfware
Accelerate Frameworks into Outcomes
Plenty of providers can advise on frameworks. Where Virtuelle Group pulls ahead is execution velocity and evidence—we take you from requirements → controls → testing → documented proof, with a remediation pathway that reduces repeat findings and accelerates stakeholder sign-off.
Close Any Compliance Gaps
What makes Virtuelle different is our blended compliance and closure model. We don’t just map gaps—we help you close them, validate the fixes, and package defensible evidence for audits, tenders, boards, and regulated customers.

Key Services
ASD Essential Eight Assessment & Evidence Pack
We run a structured Essential Eight assessment aligned to ASD guidance and designed to stand up to audit scrutiny. The ASD maturity model uses Maturity Level 1 – 3, with Level 0 capturing where Level 1 requirements aren’t met.
What you get:
- current maturity rating by strategy and by system scope
- control evidence capture – what exists, where it lives, gaps and exceptions
- a board-ready summary of risk exposure and priority focus areas
Essential Eight Uplift: Implementation Roadmap & Remediation
Virtuelle outperform “assessment-only” competitors because we build-out improvement with a prioritised delivery plan and closure discipline.
Uplift outputs include:
- maturity uplift roadmap – what to do first, why it matters, and how to evidence it
- implementation support – policy and technical uplift pathways
- validation checkpoints so fixes are proven, not assumed
Essential Eight Governance for Sustainable Compliance (Operating Model)
