Where teams typically get stuck.
Compliance-tool theater
Automated tools flag checkboxes but skip the hard controls (change management, incident response, vendor risk). You look ready — until the auditor asks questions.
First audits that fail
Teams walk into Type I audits with 40% of controls half-implemented. The audit becomes a $30K remediation exercise instead of an attestation.
No evidence trail
Controls exist but nothing proves they ran. Auditors need artifacts — access reviews, change tickets, vulnerability scans — not screenshots.
Everything you get with SOC 2 Readiness Assessment.
Full scope & Trust Services Criteria mapping
We align your systems, teams, and data flows to CC1–CC9, plus optional Availability, Confidentiality, Processing Integrity, Privacy criteria.
Control gap analysis
Interview-driven review of every applicable control, ranked by audit risk and remediation effort.
Evidence collection playbook
Exactly which artifacts your auditor will ask for, how to capture them, and where to store them.
Policy & procedure templates
Auditor-approved templates for access control, incident response, change management, and vendor risk — customized to your stack.
