EximPe Compliance Toolkit

A self-hosted GRC and work-management platform that replaced Sprinto and ClickUp.

The console EximPe runs its ISO 27001:2022 programme on. Employees accept policies, finish security training and request access or hardware. Compliance managers run frameworks, controls, evidence, access reviews, drills and the regulatory calendar. Auditors get a read-only view that leads with what would fail. People can also file requests from Claude through its own MCP server.

What it does

  • Access requests

    Multi-stage approval chains, permalinks, evidence with due dates, risk ratings.

  • Custom request types

    Owner-built forms and approval chains on one request engine.

  • Policy document control

    Parallel reviewers and an approver, signed in turn, with version history.

  • Acknowledgements

    Re-attestation cycles with append-only acceptance history.

  • Frameworks and controls

    ISO 27001:2022, 100 requirements, Statement of Applicability, evidence review.

  • Automated checks

    Nightly tests against Google Workspace, Jamf and Sophos, adopted per control.

  • Access reviews

    Quarterly recertification: keep, revoke, reduce or except, signed off as evidence.

  • Audit view

    Leads with defect counts, treats unknown as its own severity, minimises personal data.

  • Asset register

    Lifecycle, Jamf sync, end-of-life risk assessments, QR stickers.

  • Exercises and CAPA

    Tabletops and DR drills, corrective actions, approver-decided risk acceptance.

  • Compliance schedule

    Regulatory calendar with reminder ladders, participants and findings.

  • Training and campaigns

    Versioned modules with quizzes; one email per campaign, not per item.

Engineering decisions

One service per domain

Every authorization rule lives in a single service file. The web routes and the AI tools are thin adapters over it, so Claude cannot bypass a rule the UI enforces.

AI integration that cannot do harm

Seven read tools and one create tool, no approve tool. User-written text reaches the model marked as untrusted, and API keys are HMAC-hashed with a dedicated pepper.

One security wall, fail-closed

MFA and password-expiry enforcement lives in one module that every page, API and admin route passes through. A test lists every file allowed to bypass it.

History is append-only

Accepting v3 of a policy adds a row instead of overwriting v2, so the proof an auditor needs is never erased.

Status is derived, never stored

Control status and whose turn it is in an approval chain are computed on read, from one pure function shared by the page, the inbox and the nightly chase.

Guard tests as architecture

Source-scanning tests pin route guards, PII minimisation, safe secret deletion, CSV-injection safety and email escaping.

Most of my work lives in private company repositories. These are the totals.

    Website and growth

    • Led the complete migration of eximpe.com from WordPress to Vite to Next.js on my own, end to end, keeping search rankings with about 260 managed redirects.
    • Designed and built both the frontend and the backend, for a smooth experience and an architecture that stays easy to maintain.
    • Grew daily organic traffic from 10 to 15 visitors to about 2,000 with SEO-led content, comparison pages and four language editions.
    • Built six free trade tools, including an HSN finder with about 19,000 programmatic pages generated from government tariff data.
    • Built the lead pipeline behind 500+ qualified leads: validated forms, AES-256-GCM field encryption, sales alerts and a one-click follow-up.
    • Made the site readable by AI answer engines with llms.txt, structured data on about 39 page types and a grounded Ask AI feature.

    Compliance and security products

    • Designed and built the EximPe Compliance Toolkit, which replaced Sprinto and ClickUp and runs the company's ISO 27001:2022 programme: 121 tables, 152 API endpoints, 162 production releases.
    • Built EximPe DLP: a Swift macOS agent, a Chrome extension and an SMTP gateway sharing one detection engine with real checksums.
    • Wrote the MCP server and Claude skills that let anyone at EximPe file a compliance request from a chat, with no ability to approve one.
    • Set up the AWS infrastructure in Terraform: ECS Fargate, RDS, Cognito, S3 and SES, deployed from GitHub Actions with OIDC and no stored keys.

    Audits and regulatory compliance

    • Run audit readiness for PCI DSS v4.0.1 as a payment service provider, the RBI-mandated annual system and cyber security audit by CERT-In empanelled auditors, and ISO 27001:2022.
    • Conduct EximPe's internal ISO 27001 audits myself, covering clauses 4 to 10 and the Annex A controls, and report the findings to management.
    • Prepare the evidence and work alongside the assessors: quarterly ASV scans, VAPT, access reviews, policy reviews, DR drills and incident-response tests.
    • Track EximPe's RBI Payment Aggregator (PA-CB) obligations, from quarterly InCA and OCA bank certificates to monthly cyber incident reports, in a compliance calendar I built.
    • Close audit findings through corrective actions backed by proof, with every accepted risk approved by a named approver and given an end date.

    IT and operations

    • Run the company's Mac fleet on Jamf: enrolment, configuration profiles, FileVault, patching and self-healing agents.
    • Manage endpoint security on Sophos and Google Workspace administration, including quarterly access reviews.

    Marketing and automation

    • Planned, designed and ran Google and Meta ad campaigns on controlled budgets, with ad creatives built in After Effects.
    • Automated weekly news publishing with Relay.app, Make.com and Ghost CMS: an RSS trigger publishes every Tuesday with no manual work.
    • Automated lead workflows with webhooks, homepage forms and email sequences, so every lead arrives CRM-ready.
    • Ran design audits, content creation and marketing optimisation, keeping product, brand and growth aligned.

  • A pot of biryani I cooked

    Biryani, cooked by me

    So the whole site has a cat mode.
