The Pressure Is Real

The questions are getting tougher

Most teams answer these from memory, inboxes and scattered spreadsheets. BACKSTOP answers them from the record.

From: The Board

"What's our exposure?"

BACKSTOP translates technical work into board-ready reporting, so exposure is answered in business language — not spreadsheet archaeology.

From: The Auditor

"Show me the evidence."

Every control carries its evidence with it. Audit preparation becomes retrieval, not reconstruction.

From: The Insurer

"When will it be done?"

Response and timeline live in one record — insurance renewals and regulatory reporting draw from the same source of truth.

The Platform

Everything on the record, from day one

Out-of-the-Box Foundation

Pre-built processes, risk registers, and a controls library — start from a working foundation, not a blank page.

Three-Layer Control Model

Controls organized for auditor comprehension: process → risk → control, with evidence attached where it belongs.

Board-Ready Visibility

Translates technical language into executive reporting — exposure, response and timeline at a glance.

Dual Assurance

A built-in workflow for testing and reviews, so every control is checked by more than one set of eyes.

Evidence Attachment & Tracking

Attach, track and retrieve proof against every control — the record is always current, always defensible.

Seamless Integration

Works with the IT tools you already run — ticketing, documentation and monitoring feed the record.

Time to Value

Most GRC tools require months of setup before they answer a single question.
