Top 12 Hyperproof Alternatives & Competitors in 2025

In this post, we'll cover 12 Hyperproof alternatives -revealing their key features, pros and cons, and how they'll help with your InfoSec programs.

Why do you need a shift from Hyperproof?

Despite being a top-notch GRC tool, Hyperproof has a few significant drawbacks, especially for teams with limited budgets:

• No-inline policy editor: There is no in-line editor in Hyperproof for editing policies available on the platform. This means if you want to change or update any of your policies, you need to change it outside the platform and then upload it back on the platform.
 
• No audit logs for policy updates: Since there are no audit logs, it is difficult to track what changes were made in different versions of the policies.
 
• Weak audit management capabilities: The audit process can be time-consuming as you cannot invite your auditor to the platform. You need to share all the artifacts (policies doc, evidence, controls, etc.) separately where the context is lost.
 
• Missing certain risk management features: For example, risk to standard mapping feature is not available.
 
• No support for employee security training: Hyperproof doesn't have in-built employee security training courses, unlike other GRC platforms like Scrut. Thus, you need buy it separately.
 
• Lack of customization for notifications: The tool does not support the ability to configure and customize notifications, thus you would get alert for everything leading to alert fatigue.

In this post, we'll compare 12 of the best alternatives to Hyperproof, and explore how the alternatives address these disadvantages of Hyperproof.

Top 12 Hyperproof Alternatives and Competitors for Compliance automation

Now, let's discuss the 12 best Hyperproof alternatives in detail starting with Scrut, our own GRC platform.

1. Scrut Automation

Let's see how Scrut helps you with implementing and monitoring an effective information security program.

Scrut provides a single window for all compliance-related tasks. You can start developing your compliance program immediately with a library of 50+ policies created and vetted by our InfoSec experts.

You can get a quick glance of over InfoSec program on the dashboard. You can see the critical issues, which requires your most attention.

Furthermore, you can book a VAPT, and finally when ready, you can schedule an audit directly from the dashboard.

Scrut keeps you updated on the status of your overall governance, risk, and compliance setup.

This is very useful when you have to be compliant with multiple frameworks.

How Scrut eases the implementation of InfoSec program?

1. Pre-built policy templates

The Scrut smartGRC platform gives you pre-built policies that have been examined by InfoSec experts and are in line with widely used industry frameworks.

Note that you can create custom policies as well.

Additionally, you can use the built-in inline editor to customize these policies to suit your business requirements.

2. Hassle-free controls setup

With Scrut smartGRC, you can create controls that align with your risks and define custom controls to reflect the particular requirements of your business. These controls help you reduce InfoSec incidents, such as data theft, systems breaches, and unauthorized changes to your systems.

You can use pre-built control mapping to map those controls against the compliance frameworks you require.

Furthermore, once you have selected the controls applicable to you, Scrut shows you the status of all the controls in a single place.

Ultimately, these controls help you build a strong information security posture.

Additionally, these controls can be mapped with multiple frameworks. This prevents duplication of efforts when going for multiple frameworks.

3. Automated evidence collection

Using data from over 70 integrations, Scrut smartGRC automatically collects evidence eliminating manual effort and saving a lot of time. The platform maintains all evidence required for the audit in one place.

On the other hand, if you use Google Drive, OneDrive, DropBox, etc for storing your documents, you would be required to spend countless hours taking screenshots and managing multiple folders.

Earlier, one of our customers was keeping the evidence in Google Drive in various folders and was losing track of the versions. With Scrut, that problem was immediately solved.

Scrut eases the audit process for your auditor as well, as they don't have to look at multiple places for evidence.

4. Task management and workflows

The platform allows you to assign tasks to team members and monitor their status. You can stay informed about the most recent progress on each task by getting updates via email and Slack.

Further, you can send reminders to different task owners for any pending tasks. These people would be responsible for renewing the policy at regular intervals set by you.

Note that task owners (Assignee) can only make changes to the policy, but cannot publish them. Only the admin can appove and publish the policies.

Similarly, you can assign ownership for any issues in your cloud in the test tab.

Further, you can assign sub-task owners.

Scrut smartGRC also gives the assignees a step-by-step guide to resolve all the misconfigurations.

5. Manage multiple audits easily

Scrut enables you to invite auditors directly to the platform to manage numerous complex audits without hassle.

It's also easy for auditors to conduct the audit as they get access to all the artefacts related to the framework in one place.

They can check any control for the associated policy, evidence task, tests, and leave comments if they need clarification about anything.

This ensures the audit process goes smoothly.

6. Establish trust early-on with Trust Vault

When discussing with our initial customers, we found that one of the major frustration was around the huge amount of time they had to invest in answering the same questions repeatedly as security questionnaires, security certifications, and report requests.

This increased the timeline for deal closures with customers and partners alike. Moreover, this requires their development and engineering teams to get involved in the sales process to answer these questions, as salespeople were not aware of these deeply technical security questions.

Trust Vault freed up their time, and now they can happily do their core job-building products.

Scrut's Trust Vault lets you showcase your real-time security and compliance posture to customers.

It helps you display your certifications and attestations, such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, and HIPAA, which are frequently requested by customers and partners.

You get a host this report on your website (trust.yourdomain.com) where your customers can request access to it. To your customers, it would look like this.

Once you approve the request, they can view it after signing an NDA.
