Member News: Hicomply
Exciting news from one of our member businesses, Hicomply.
Hicomply, a global provider of information security management and compliance automation software, has partnered with A-LIGN, a leading cybersecurity and compliance firm, to strengthen support for organisations pursuing security certifications across Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).
As demand grows for businesses to be certified against frameworks such as ISO 27001, ISO 42001 and SOC 2 – driven by stricter regulation, customer scrutiny and supply-chain expectations – the partnership is designed to help organisations navigate increasingly complex security requirements while reducing the time and operational burden associated with certification.
Through the collaboration, organisations using Hicomply’s platform will benefit from closer alignment between their internal security governance processes and A-LIGN’s audit methodology. By centralising policies, controls and evidence within the platform, customers can prepare for certification more efficiently and maintain ongoing audit readiness as their organisations scale.
Mark Edgeworth, CEO at Hicomply, said: “For many organisations, achieving recognised standards is something that directly impacts growth, partnerships and customer trust. What we hear time and again from teams is that preparing for audit can feel complex and time-consuming and working with A-LIGN allows us to simplify that journey. By combining Hicomply’s platform with A-LIGN’s expertise, we’re helping organisations stay organised, stay prepared and ultimately move through the assessment process with far less friction.”
Andrew Steioff, VP, Global Strategic Alliances at A-LIGN added: “We work with organisations every day that are preparing for independent assessment, and one of the biggest challenges is bringing together the evidence and documentation required for audit. Platforms like Hicomply make that process far more straightforward. By working together, we can help organisations approach the audit process with greater clarity and confidence.”
For Hicomply, the partnership marks another step in the company’s international growth strategy, expanding its reach across EMEA and strengthening its ability to support organisations operating in regulated markets and complex supply chains.
