The Truss Platform

Cybersecurity assessments
your team actually owns.

A purpose-built assessment platform for teams that want defensible, repeatable cybersecurity baselines — without living inside a consulting engagement. Launch a framework, assign your SMEs, and retain your evidence year over year.

  • Aligned to NIST CSF 2.0 — including Govern
  • Multi-user by design — assign SMEs by function
  • Built by advisors — not a repackaged SaaS shell
What you get

Your assessment cycle, upgraded from day one. 

The framework barely changes year over year — and neither should the effort to prove alignment. Here’s what your team gets the moment you spin up a workspace on the Truss platform.

A structured, versioned workspace

Every response tracked, time-stamped and reproducible. One source of truth for the whole team — no filename gymnastics, no lost workbooks.

Every baseline, retained

Your baseline lives with you — not with a consultant. Reassess against last year in a few clicks, without starting from a blank sheet.

Split the work across your SMEs

Assign functions to the right owners — identity to identity, response to the SOC. The baseline comes together in parallel, not on one person’s plate.

Consistent scoring, every time

Implementation examples and rubric guidance built into every question. Your executive report tells the same story year over year — because the scoring does.

Available now · NIST CSF 2.0 Module

A working assessment platform — not a slide deck.

Delivered in partnership with cyberconIQ™

The first live module on the Truss platform is a full NIST CSF 2.0 self-assessment covering every one of the 106 subcategories, including the new Govern function. Watch how a team runs a baseline in an afternoon.

  • Plain-language questions with implementation examples built in
  • Assign SMEs by function — Govern to legal, Detect to the SOC
  • Percent-coverage scoring — not a proprietary black-box score
  • Progress retained year over year — reassess, don’t restart
  • Full audit log of every response and change
  • CSV upload — migrate an existing assessment and go live in minutes
A practical approach

Three outputs that move the program forward 

The NIST CSF 2.0 module replaces complex framework artefacts with a visual, plain-language roadmap. Clarity on your strengths, your gaps and your next best investment — without a proprietary black-box score.

01

Understand your posture

A clear snapshot of your cybersecurity maturity across all six NIST CSF 2.0 functions — in language your executives already speak.

02

Prioritize investments

Percent-coverage scoring shows where you’re strong, where you’re exposed, and which controls deliver the biggest lift for the next dollar spent.

03

Executive-friendly reports

Board- and CFO-ready output that translates cybersecurity posture into a maturity story your leadership can act on — on demand, year over year.

For a fraction of what consultants charge, I completed the NIST 2.0 assessment on my own time. The plain-language questions made it simple, and the clear, prioritized results showed exactly where to invest for the biggest ROI.

Why teams pick the Truss platform 

Off-the-shelf GRC tools are built for mass-market appeal — you end up adapting your process to fit their framework. We built this the other way around.

Built by advisors

Every question, every scoring rubric, every implementation example was written by the same advisors who run PCI, SOC 2 and NIST engagements.

Framework-native

No generic “controls” layer wrapped around the actual standard. If the framework says 106 subcategories, the platform has 106 subcategories.

Multi-user by design

Assessments split naturally across your team. Assign functions to the right SMEs and watch the baseline come together in parallel — not sequentially.

Your data, your evidence

Export your baseline, target profile and evidence at any time. No lock-in and no consultant standing between you and your records.

Modules

How it works

From login to defensible baseline in one sitting.

Four steps — and every one of them can be run by your team, not a consultant.

01

Log in

Provision your workspace, invite your team, and pick a framework module to start.

02

Assign SMEs

Split the framework by function or domain — the right questions land with the right owners.

03

Answer with context

Implementation examples, evidence hints and plain-language prompts inside every question — no separate handbook required.

04

Report & retain

Executive scorecard, per-domain coverage, and the whole baseline retained for next year’s reassessment.

Built by us. Governed by you.

The platform is a tool — judgement stays with your team.

We’re advisors first. The platform exists to hand you the parts of an assessment that a spreadsheet was never going to solve — structure, traceability and continuity — while your team keeps ownership of the judgement calls that actually matter.

  • Advisors on tap when you want a second opinion — not because the tool forces it
  • Every response, scoring change and comment logged and time-stamped
  • Your data, your governance boundary, your export
106 NIST CSF 2.0 subcategories covered in the live module
6 Core functions — including the new Govern pillar
YoY Baselines retained year over year — no restart cost
