Who we are

de.iterate makes data privacy and cyber security simple and stress-free. Our leading compliance platform streamlines certification to global information security and data privacy standards. Headquartered in Brisbane, Australia, we operate globally and have a presence in Germany, London and Vancouver.

What exactly is de.iterate?

We could throw around some fancy buzz words here like ‘bespoke end-to-end solution’ or ‘cutting-edge compliance revolution’, or even a ‘perfect marriage of cyber security and simplicity’.

But we’re all about streamlining compliance here at de.iterate. So, let’s cut to the chase: de.iterate is an online platform that helps you ‘do’ compliance, without being or becoming a compliance expert. de.iterate is to compliance as Xero is to bookkeeping.

Our online platform includes:

  • A compliance calendar that reminds you what tasks you need to do when
  • A suite of Smart Policies mapped to the relevant Standard
  • Training modules with memorable messaging your employees will actually remember
  • An asset register to document and classify your suppliers and assets
  • A risk register that assigns owners, sets review periods, and details treatment plans
  • Simple reporting tools that management love
  • Dedicated ‘Auditor View’ that speaks directly to your auditor in their language

How it all began

We were frustrated with outdated and ineffective compliance techniques that failed to protect companies and their clients. We were fed up with compliance programs that were little more than a ‘tick box’ exercise. And, we knew growing businesses were just as frustrated.

We knew that cyber security and data privacy compliance needed a massive shake-up. Traditional compliance frameworks are built around one day of the year: the annual audit. Then, for the other 364 days of the year, employees are confused and companies are non-compliant.

Compliance needed to evolve from dry, paper-based policy manuals left gathering dust in a desk drawer, into an engaging education-based program designed to arm individuals with the cyber skills they needed to protect their businesses, clients, employees, and themselves.

And so, de.iterate was born.

Over the next few years, we re-built compliance from the ground up. We created a platform firmly focused on the real-world, practical applications of compliance. We consciously avoided the pitfalls commonly associated with the technology-first compliance implementations and focused on helping businesses implement sustainable processes that work for them.

de.iterate went ‘live’ in July 2022 with our easy-to-use, interactive, all-in-one online policy manual employee training platform and compliance calendar.

What We Stand For

The entire de.iterate team is passionate about removing the negative stigma so often associated with compliance. We firmly believe that compliance should be simple, sustainable and integrated into everyday business operations.

Our approach to compliance helps mitigate risk, improve operations, and is easily understood and followed by employees. Importantly, it is less confusing and more attainable, giving business owners and managers peace of mind.
