STORM GRC vs Centraleyes
Connect governance to security operations.
Both platforms publish integrated cyber risk, compliance, third-party management, remediation, external intelligence and executive reporting. STORM is the clearer operational fit when the same environment must also run dedicated phishing exercises, named threat-intelligence workflows, security monitoring, maritime operations and a path to discuss on-premise deployment.

Why teams choose STORM
A broader operational security model.
Centraleyes publishes strong AI-assisted cyber GRC capabilities. STORM stands out for teams that want their governance platform to explicitly include operational modules, named security integrations and sector-specific maritime workflows.
Twelve explicit modules
Risk, compliance, audits, incidents, assets, suppliers, continuity, policies, tasks and reporting connect directly to phishing, threat intelligence and security monitoring.
Platform scopeA defined five-phase method
STORM publishes a practical sequence from asset cartography and risk through policies, third parties and continuous monitoring.
Operational methodDedicated security workflows
GoPhish exercises, FortiRecon threat intelligence, CVE and DNS monitoring are documented as part of the STORM environment.
Named capabilitiesMaritime and deployment choice
STORM publishes shore, fleet and vessel workflows and offers a discussion path for on-premise deployment under strict locality requirements.

The STORM difference
From asset context to security action.
STORM's differentiator is the explicit route from the operating environment to risk decisions, security evidence and executive reporting.
A defined risk journey
Start with the operational environment, not the checklist.
STORM ties cartography, impact and threat assessment to risk scenarios, treatments and residual risk, keeping framework activity connected to the underlying exposure.
- Asset and dependency cartography
- Impact, threat and vulnerability assessment
- Risk register, scenarios and treatment plans
- Heatmaps and executive risk reporting
Named threat workflows
Bring external exposure into the risk conversation.
FortiRecon threat intelligence, CVE tracking and DNS monitoring give security and governance teams specific operational context for prioritization and follow-up.
- FortiRecon threat-intelligence integration
- CVE monitoring and security advisories
- DNS and external exposure monitoring
- Context connected to risk decisions
Evidence in motion
Let operational signals support the audit trail.
Supported MDM and EDR integrations can pre-populate endpoint posture, configuration state and asset attributes. Findings and remediation tasks then move through the connected governance workflow.
- Endpoint posture and asset attributes
- Evidence mapped to relevant controls
- External supplier ratings in context
- Tasks synchronized with team workflows
Questions before a shortlist
What should you validate?
Bring your actual assets, risk process, threat sources, phishing program, evidence workflows, reports and deployment constraints to the STORM demonstration.
Is STORM only a compliance assessment tool?
No. The STORM site documents twelve modules spanning compliance, risk, audit, incidents, assets, suppliers, BCP/DRP, policies, tasks, phishing, threat intelligence and reporting.
Does STORM include threat intelligence and phishing workflows?
Yes. STORM documents a threat-intelligence module with FortiRecon, CVE and DNS monitoring, plus GoPhish campaigns, templates and analytics for phishing exercises.
Does STORM support maritime cyber-risk programs?
Yes. STORM publishes shore, fleet and per-vessel workflows, including asset and risk registers and mappings for IMO MSC.428(98) and IACS UR E26/E27.
Does STORM offer an on-premise option?
STORM is delivered as managed SaaS in EU-based data centers. Its published FAQ says on-premise deployment can be discussed for critical-infrastructure enterprises with strict data-locality requirements. Confirm architecture and scope during discovery.
