What is Copla?
Copla is a compliance automation platform designed to help companies maintain continuous alignment with key cybersecurity and regulatory frameworks, including ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIS2, DORA, PCI DSS, MiCA, and Cyber Essentials. Formerly known as CyberUpgrade, the Lithuania-based company rebranded to Copla in 2025 and closed a €6M Series A round in February 2026 to accelerate its European expansion.
At its core, Copla combines predefined control-based workflows built by experienced CISOs, an AI-powered chatbot (Copla Stream) that guides users through compliance tasks, and centralized evidence storage. Its framework cross-mapping capability lets teams complete compliance work once and apply it across multiple regulations – reducing duplicated effort by up to 90% when certifying for additional standards.
Beyond the platform, Copla pairs every client with a dedicated CISO who customizes policies, guides implementation, and represents the company during audits. This hybrid approach of automation plus expert human support sets Copla apart from tools that rely solely on software. Additional products include Copla Registry, a standalone DORA ICT register starting at €600/year, vulnerability scanning, penetration testing, and employee awareness training.
By cutting manual compliance effort by 80 to 90% and saving over €60,000 annually in overhead, Copla helps security leaders stay audit-ready year-round without scaling their teams. The platform is trusted by companies across Europe, from startups preparing for their first ISO 27001 certification to regulated financial institutions managing DORA and NIS2 obligations simultaneously.

Copla supports major industry and regulatory frameworks, including ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIS2, DORA, PCI DSS, MiCA, Cyber Essentials, and GDPR-related controls. The platform also supports custom or “bring your own” frameworks for organizations with specific regulatory requirements.
By automating tasks like evidence collection, control mapping, vendor assessments, policy distribution, and audit preparation, Copla can automate 80 to 90% of compliance work, drastically reducing manual effort for teams.
That means faster audits, lower overhead, and less reliance on spreadsheets or disconnected processes.
Yes. Copla includes Vendor Risk Management capabilities – letting you assess, monitor, and audit third-party vendors and external partners according to your security standards. This helps you ensure that your vendor ecosystem stays compliant and secure.
Absolutely. Copla offers a policy management module that gives you a library of ready-to-use templates aligned to major frameworks (ISO 27001, SOC 2, DORA, etc.), or lets you build custom policies. Once policies are created, Copla can distribute them to employees, track acknowledgments, and manage updates – all via automated workflows.
It also ensures accountability by assigning tasks to specific people and tracking progress.
Besides the software platform, Copla pairs clients with experienced CISOs (CISO-as-a-service) who help tailor compliance strategy to your business, guide implementation, and – as needed – represent you during audits. This hybrid “tool + expert” approach helps especially companies without a dedicated security team.
Copla is designed to scale with you. Their offering targets a wide range – from startups and SMEs to larger enterprises. The modular structure, templates, automation, and fractional CISO support make it a fit for smaller companies as well as more regulated, enterprise-level organizations.
With Copla, all evidence, logs, policies, vendor assessments, incident history, and audit records are centralized in one place – often eliminating the need for spreadsheets or disconnected documentation. This makes audits smoother and faster.
Because compliance is not a one-off but ongoing, Copla supports continuous GRC: real-time risk monitoring, periodic reviews, awareness training, and compliance updates – so organizations stay audit-ready 24/7.
Using Copla lets you get a full compliance infrastructure – automation, documentation, risk management, vendor oversight, audit readiness – without hiring a large in-house security or compliance team. That saves costs, accelerates compliance timelines, and reduces administrative burden.
Plus, you also get expert CISO support as part of the service, which can be especially valuable if your company is new to compliance.
Copla uses framework-based annual pricing. Plans start at €2,999/year for ISO 27001 (special offer), €3,500/year for NIS2, SOC 2, and PCI DSS, and €4,500/year for DORA. All plans include a €499 one-time onboarding fee. Teams with more than 50 users receive custom pricing. Each additional framework comes with a 20% discount. Optional CISO services range from €6,000 to €24,000 per year depending on engagement level.
Copla Registry is a standalone product designed specifically for DORA’s ICT register of information requirements. Starting at €600/year, it provides an automated registry with built-in checks for accuracy and completeness. Financial institutions subject to DORA can use it independently or alongside Copla’s full compliance platform.
Yes. Copla is the rebranded name of CyberUpgrade. The company completed its rebrand in 2025, transitioning from CyberUpgrade to Copla to better reflect its expanded focus on compliance automation across multiple frameworks. The platform, team, and core technology remain the same.
