GRCfy Maestro is built for the auditor conducting the DPDP Act 2023 engagement — CA firms, CERT-In empanelled security auditors, and independent assurance providers — not for the Data Fiduciary managing its own consent workflows. Run the audit, collect evidence, raise findings, and issue the certificate, all in one system.
Most "DPDP compliance" products help a company manage its own consent records. GRCfy Maestro is the platform an independent auditor or audit firm uses to actually assess whether that compliance holds up — with evidence review, clause-level findings, and a defensible audit trail.

Need a framework we don't have pre-built? Bring your own control library — Excel, CSV, or built from scratch, alongside the 21 frameworks already on board.
Significant Data Fiduciaries must undergo periodic independent audits — typically run by CERT-In empanelled security auditors, CA firms, or independent compliance consultancies. GRCfy Maestro is the software those auditors run the engagement on.
No. It's an audit management platform for the party conducting the independent audit — evidence review, findings, risk register, and certification, not day-to-day consent operations for the fiduciary.
Yes — controls can be cross-mapped so evidence collected once satisfies overlapping requirements across frameworks in the same audit.
