The Problem

Compliance is expensive.
It doesn't have to be.

01
QSA assessments start at $15,000
Before remediation, retesting, and annual recertification. The meter never stops for companies without a dedicated compliance team.
02
Free templates are dangerously outdated
Most reference NIST CSF 1.1 and PCI DSS v3.2.1. Regulators and auditors don't accept last year's framework.
03
Building from scratch takes months
Your IT team is stretched thin. Risk registers, evidence tracking, and gap analysis fall through the cracks.
04
Big firms aren't built for your size
Deloitte and PwC aren't returning your calls. RiskForge was built for exactly the gap they leave behind.

About the Author
Built by a practitioner

Not a template mill.
Real enterprise experience.

Every workbook in the RiskForge vault was designed by a hands-on IT Risk and Audit professional — someone who has sat across the table from regulators, QSAs, and audit committees for over a decade.

"These aren't checklists assembled from a Google search. They come from real assessments, real control gaps, and real regulatory findings — across banking, defense contracting, and financial services."

FAQ
Questions

Common
questions.

What format are the templates in?
+

All templates are delivered as .xlsx files compatible with Microsoft Excel 2016+, Microsoft 365, Google Sheets, and LibreOffice. No additional software required.

Are these aligned to the latest framework versions?
+

Yes. NIST CSF 2.0 (February 2024) including the new Govern function, and PCI DSS v4.0 mandatory March 31, 2024. Most free resources are still on previous versions.

Can I use these for client engagements?
+

Yes. Single license covers use within your organization or for client projects. Contact us for multi-license arrangements for consultants and MSPs.

What happens when I buy the Full Vault?
+

Immediate access to both current workbooks. As new templates are completed you'll receive download links automatically at no additional charge.

Do these replace a formal QSA assessment?
+

No — these workbooks help you prepare for and manage your compliance posture internally. Formal certification still requires a qualified assessor where mandated.

What is the refund policy?
+

All sales are final due to the digital nature of the product. If a template has a technical issue or differs from its description, contact us within 7 days.
