“We see the current market divided into two main categories,” said Raphaël Peyret, Director of Product Management, Cloud Security at Bitdefender. “On one side are GRC-focused solutions that emphasize compliance processes but lack deep integration with security telemetry. On the other are tactical tools that assess technical controls without helping organizations map those results back to regulatory requirements. GravityZone Compliance Manager bridges that gap.”
From Endpoint Telemetry to Compliance Outcomes
The key differentiator for GravityZone Compliance Manager lies in its ability to tie compliance scoring directly to real-time endpoint data and threat analytics. Bitdefender’s platform already includes advanced security and risk tools like Proactive Hardening and Attack Surface Reduction (PHASR), which automatically identify and mitigate unnecessary risks. These insights now feed directly into compliance metrics, so as organizations reduce exposure, their compliance posture improves automatically.“GravityZone Compliance Manager translates actionable security data into compliance outcomes,” Peyret explained. “As risks are resolved, compliance status updates in real time. This streamlines operations, eliminates redundant workflows, and improves an organization’s overall security and regulatory standing.”
Automated, Audit-Ready Reporting and Framework Support
GravityZone Compliance Manager delivers audit-ready reports in seconds. These reports include a compliance score, detailed summaries for auditors, and a breakdown of high, medium, and low risks. Because it's integrated with Bitdefender’s existing platform, organizations can generate this documentation without additional tools or manual evidence collection. The platform includes built-in support for global and industry-specific regulations, such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, CISv8, CMMC 2.0, and more. With one-click drill-downs and remediation guidance, users can see how individual assets and controls affect compliance across multiple frameworks.High Demand in Regulated and Underserved Markets
Demand is growing fastest in highly regulated sectors such as financial services—particularly in the EU after DORA enforcement, along with healthcare and public sector organizations. But Peyret noted that the strongest unmet need may actually lie in the mid-market.“Mid-sized companies are often caught in the middle,” he said. “They’re facing increasing pressure but lack the internal resources or tools to manage compliance effectively. GravityZone Compliance Manager is built to deliver value at that scale.”
Enabling MSSPs with Compliance-as-a-Service
For MSSPs tasked with managing multiple client environments, each with varying regulatory obligations, Bitdefender’s GravityZone Compliance Manager introduces a way to streamline and scale compliance operations. Built into Bitdefender’s existing multi-tenant platform, it allows providers to centralize compliance oversight, automate reporting, and standardize services across accounts without adding complexity.“It gives MSSPs the opportunity to offer compliance-as-a-service, alongside their existing cybersecurity offerings. By packaging compliance as a recurring managed service, providers can tap into additional budget holders, such as GRC teams, who may not typically engage with traditional security solutions," says Peyret.
