Compliance engineered.

SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 and similar frameworks treated as engineering problems — not a panic project. Controls embedded in your stack so the audit becomes paperwork, not a sprint.

§ 01The problem

The problem we solve

§ 06Process

How an engagement runs

  1. 01

    Gap assessment

    Where you stand against the framework. Written report with prioritized remediation.

  2. 02

    Engineering controls

    Logging, access reviews, change management, encryption, secrets — built into your stack.

  3. 03

    Operational controls

    Policies, vendor management, incident process, training. Lived practice, not screenshots.

  4. 04

    Audit

    We liaise with the auditor, defend the evidence, and address findings as they come up.

§ 08Common questions

Frequently asked.

01Type I or Type II?

Type I shows you have controls; Type II shows they actually work over time. Most customer questionnaires want Type II. Plan for it.

02Vanta, Drata, Secureframe, Tugboat?

All competent. The platform matters less than how rigorously you implement the controls underneath. We have opinions and will share them.
