Bastion Assess

Know exactly where you stand against every framework you need.

Manually mapping policies against ISO 27001, GDPR, NIS2, or SOC 2 in a spreadsheet takes days and goes stale the moment a framework updates. BastionIQ's AI reviews your actual documents and tells you the gaps in minutes.

The problem

Compliance frameworks move faster than manual reviews can keep up.

Point-in-time spreadsheet audits are slow, inconsistent between reviewers, and outdated the moment a policy or a framework changes. Most teams only find the gaps when a customer questionnaire or an actual auditor finds them first. BastionIQ turns assessment into something you can rerun whenever a policy changes, not just once a year under deadline pressure.

Bastion Assess covers 15 frameworks your auditor, insurer, or regulator cares about.

Rerun anytime

Reassess after every policy update to confirm the gap actually closed.

Feeds your evidence pack

Assessment results link directly into the same audit trail as your Plans and Vault documents.

Need control-by-control tracking?Assess tells you where your documents stand against a framework. If you also need to track every control, link evidence and record who attested what and when, add Bastion Comply, available for ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials, SOC 2, GDPR and NIS2.
About AI usageAll AI capabilities are powered by Claude (Anthropic). Two connection options are available from Organisation Settings: BastionIQ-hosted AI, served through our own AWS Bedrock deployment with a monthly usage quota per feature and no API key needed, or bring your own key, connecting your organisation's own Anthropic API key for unlimited usage under your own agreement.
Rerun
anytime

Reassess as often as you need, not once a year.

Bastion Assess is included in every paid plan. Rerun it after every policy change, every framework update, or every new customer questionnaire. The cost of a compliance gap found by an auditor is always higher than the cost of finding it yourself.

Find your gaps before your auditor does.
