CISO Assistant offers a fresh perspective on Cybersecurity Management and GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) practices:

• Designed as a central hub to connect multiple cybersecurity concepts with smart linking between objects,
• Built as a multi-paradigm tool that adapts to different backgrounds, methodologies, and expectations,
• Explicitly decouples compliance from cybersecurity controls, enabling reusability across the platform,
• Promotes reusability and interlinking instead of redundant work,
• Developed with an API-first approach to support both UI interaction and external automation,
• Comes packed with a wide range of built-in standards, security controls, and threat libraries,
• Offers an open format to customize and reuse your own objects and frameworks,
• Includes built-in risk assessment and remediation tracking workflows,
• Supports custom frameworks via a simple syntax and flexible tooling,
• Provides rich import/export capabilities across various channels and formats (UI, CLI, Kafka, reports, etc.).

Our vision is to create a one-stop-shop for cybersecurity management—modernizing GRC through simplification and interoperability.

As practitioners working with cybersecurity and IT professionals, we've faced the same issues: tool fragmentation, data duplication, and a lack of intuitive, integrated solutions. CISO Assistant was born from those lessons, and we're building a community around pragmatic, common-sense principles.

We’re constantly evolving with input from users and customers. Like an octopus 🐙, CISO Assistant keeps growing extra arms—bringing clarity, automation, and productivity to cybersecurity teams while reducing the effort of data input and output.

Quick Start 🚀

[!TIP] The easiest way to get started is through the free trial of cloud instance available here.

Alternatively, once you have Docker and Docker-compose installed, on your workstation or server:

clone the repo:

git clone --single-branch -b main https://github.com/intuitem/ciso-assistant-community.git

and run the starter script

./docker-compose.sh     # Linux/MacOS
./docker-compose.ps1    # Windows

If you are looking for other installation options for self-hosting, check the config builder and the docs.

[!NOTE] The docker-compose script uses prebuilt Docker images supporting most of the standard hardware architecture. If you're using Windows, make sure to have Docker Desktop with WSL2 installed and trigger the PowerShell script. It will feed Docker Desktop on your behalf.

The docker compose file can be adjusted to pass extra parameters to suit your setup (e.g. Mailer settings).

[!WARNING] If you're getting warnings or errors about image's platform not matching host platform, raise an issue with the details and we'll add it shortly after. You can also use docker-compose-build.sh instead (see below) to build for your specific architecture.
