Thoropass

Thoropass differs from the rest of this category in a way that materially changes the buying decision: it does the audit itself. Most compliance platforms automate evidence and then hand you to a separate assessor. Thoropass provides Thoropass Audit, expert-led and run on its own Audit Lifecycle Platform, so the software and the assessment come from one place.

That extends to the surrounding work. Audit-ready pentesting is delivered by CREST-accredited testers with reporting formatted for assessors, and vulnerability scanning can be run on demand or scheduled with evidence exported in audit-ready form. PCI DSS is named directly among its assessments, alongside SOC 1 and 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, the HITRUST e1/i1/r2 tiers, CMMC Level 1, NIST CSF 2.0 and GDPR. The trade-off is worth weighing: a single supplier is simpler, but some organisations prefer their assessor independent of their tooling vendor.
