During our own compliance journey, one resource we’ve repeatedly returned to is Control Stack.
Unlike GRC platforms such as Drata, Vanta or Scytale, Control Stack isn’t trying to collect evidence or automate audits. Instead, it provides a clear, Australian-focused reference for ISO 27001, ASD ISM and Essential Eight controls.
We’ve found it particularly useful when trying to understand what a control is actually asking for, without wading through hundreds of pages of source material.
If you’re mapping your own business to the standard, it’s a handy companion — right alongside starting with a conversation rather than a spreadsheet.
