Canadian alternative

A Canadian alternative to Cynomi

Lavawall® is a Canadian alternative to Cynomi for compliance and GRC. It is a multi-tenant RMM and remote support platform for MSPs and IT teams, with patching, security monitoring, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace breach detection, and compliance built into the same agent and console, fully Canadian-owned, hosted in Canada, and billed in Canadian dollars.

Support comes from ThreeShield staff in Canada, and compliance mapping covers PIPEDA, Quebec Law 25, and more than 20 Canadian laws and frameworks in all.

What makes Lavawall® Canadian

Canadian ownership, hosting, billing, payment, support, and law, in one platform.

Fully Canadian-owned

Lavawall® is built and owned by ThreeShield Information Security Corporation, a Canadian corporation based in Calgary, Alberta. Its terms are governed by the laws of Alberta and of Canada.

Hosted in Canada

Data is hosted in Canada by default: on AWS in Montréal today, moving to a Canadian-owned hosting provider in Vancouver in Q4 2026. Where a client's obligations call for it, data can be placed in the United States, Europe, or Australia instead.

Billed in Canadian dollars

Canadian-dollar pricing with GST, HST, PST, and QST handled, month-to-month, with no high-water-mark billing.

Canadian ways to pay

Pay in Canadian dollars by Interac, Canadian pre-authorized debit, or Canadian credit card.

Supported from Canada

Support and Tier 3 escalation come from ThreeShield staff in Canada, the CISSP- and CISA-credentialled team that builds the product.

Canadian law built in

Compliance mapping covers more than 20 Canadian laws and frameworks, including PIPEDA, Quebec Law 25, Alberta PIPA and the Health Information Act, BC PIPA, FIPPA, and the E-Health Act, Ontario PHIPA, CPCSC, CIRO, and FINTRAC, alongside SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, and CMMC. See Canadian GRC.

What Lavawall® covers compared with Cynomi

Lavawall® covers the GRC and compliance work Cynomi is used for, and more, on one agent and console:

  • 70+ compliance frameworks with one control set mapped across them. They include more than 20 Canadian laws and frameworks, including PIPEDA, Quebec Law 25, Alberta PIPA and the Health Information Act, BC PIPA, FIPPA, and the E-Health Act, Ontario PHIPA, CPCSC, CIRO, and FINTRAC.
  • Evidence collected automatically from the same agent that patches and monitors each computer: patch state, disk encryption, endpoint protection, and administrator rights, dated for auditors.
  • Policies, business impact analysis, vendor risk, and continuity plans, plus an audit by ThreeShield's CISSP and CISA team when you want one.
  • A full RMM on the same agent, so security questionnaires become a lookup instead of a fire drill.

Where Cynomi may fit better

If SOC 2 is your only framework and you plan to keep a separate RMM indefinitely, a SOC 2-focused tool such as Cynomi may be enough on its own.

Switching, or running both

Start the GRC module, pick your frameworks, and install the Lavawall® agent through your current RMM so evidence starts collecting on its own. GRC and RMM work together but can be used separately.
