Policy Management

Policies your team actually follows, and your auditor can verify.

A central policy library with templates, version control, staff sign-off tracking and automatic evidence pack integration. Every policy your SMB1001 certification requires, managed from one place.

Policies in a folder don't count as evidence.

Most businesses have security policies somewhere. They were written two years ago, saved to a shared drive, and acknowledged by exactly one person who no longer works there. When an auditor asks for evidence that staff are aware of your password policy, "it's in the folder" is not an answer.

The CyberGrape policy module changes the relationship between your policies and your certification. Every policy is published from the platform, acknowledged by your team with a tracked timestamp, and automatically mapped to the SMB1001 controls it supports. Your evidence is built as you go.

What the policy module does.

Policy library

A central library for every security policy your business operates. Acceptable use, password management, data handling, incident response, AI use: each version controlled, each linked to the SMB1001 controls it satisfies.

Platform policy templates

Starting from scratch is the hardest part. The CyberGrape Platform includes pre-built policy templates aligned to SMB1001 requirements. Edit them to match your business: the structure and the compliance mapping are already done.

Staff acknowledgement and sign-off

Every policy can be sent to your team for acknowledgement directly from the platform. Tracked per employee, timestamped, and automatically included in your SMB1001 evidence pack. No chasing people for email confirmations.

Version control and history

Every policy change is versioned. You can see who edited a policy, what changed, and when. Your auditor can see the full history. Your team always has the current version in front of them.

SMB1001 control mapping

Each policy automatically mapped to the SMB1001 controls it supports. Publish a password policy and the relevant controls update. The platform connects the documentation to the certification evidence without manual work.

Evidence pack integration

Policy documents, version history and staff sign-off records all flow directly into your SMB1001 evidence pack. By the time you are ready to certify, your policy evidence is already compiled.

  • Sign-off progress tracked per employee
  • Version history retained for auditors
  • SMB1001 control mapping auto-applied
