Home/Services/Compliance & GRC
Compliance that's always ready. Not an annual fire drill.
Stay aligned to SOC 2, HIPAA, FTC Safeguards, NIST CSF 2.0, ISO 27001, GLBA, SEC Reg S-P, and the other security standards your industry cares about. We don't just help you pass an audit — we help you build a security program that holds up all year, not just on audit day.
Why it matters
Compliance isn't a project. It's a way of working.
Most small and mid-sized businesses treat compliance as a one-time exercise: review, fix, get the certificate, move on. Six months later, things have slipped, controls have lapsed, and the next audit is a fire drill all over again.
We bake the standards into how your IT runs every day — so controls stay in place, evidence collects automatically, and you can prove where you stand at any moment. Not just on audit day.
What we support
Ten standards. One way of working.
We document your controls once and use them to satisfy multiple standards — because most controls overlap, and duplicate work is wasted work.
What's included
From first review to year-round readiness.
We meet you where you are — whether that's starting from zero or keeping an existing program in shape.
Gap review
A structured look at where you stand today against the standards that apply to your industry. Written-up findings, a ranked to-do list, and a realistic timeline for closing the gaps.
Policies and documents
Security policy, acceptable-use policy, incident response plan, business continuity plan, vendor management policy. Customized to your business — not generic boilerplate.
Putting controls in place
The technical and operational measures that satisfy each standard's requirements — installed, set up, and tested. Not a spreadsheet of intentions.
Always-on checking
Automatic checking of your controls, alerts when something slips, and reports on where you stand. We catch problems before your auditor does — and fix them before they become findings.
Evidence collection
Logs, screenshots, configuration exports, access reviews, training records — collected as we go, organized by control, and ready for any auditor.
Audit support
We work directly with your auditors — answering questions, providing evidence, and walking them through your setup. Your audit goes faster and costs less.
Common questions
Frequently asked.
Do we actually need to be SOC 2 or HIPAA certified to work with you?
No. Many of our clients aren't pursuing a formal certificate. We build your security around the relevant standard so you're ready if you ever need to prove it — to a customer, an insurer, or a regulator — without starting from scratch.
How long does it take to become SOC 2 ready?
For most small and mid-sized businesses starting from scratch, 4-9 months to be ready, depending on how complex your setup is and how many gaps need to be closed. SOC 2 Type I (a snapshot at a point in time) is faster than Type II (which requires 3-12 months of evidence that your controls actually held up). We give you a realistic timeline after our review.
We're an auto dealer. What does FTC Safeguards actually require?
The Safeguards Rule requires a written information security plan, a person formally in charge of it, regular risk reviews, sign-in security with a second verification step, encryption, ongoing monitoring, oversight of your vendors, and a plan for incidents — among other things. We've built our compliance service around these requirements so dealerships can move from gap to documented compliance without disrupting day-to-day operations.
