Questions

Straight answers.

What's the difference between Compliance-as-a-Service and vCISO?

Compliance-as-a-Service keeps your controls monitored and your evidence audit-ready. vCISO gives you the executive who owns the strategy behind them and reports to leadership. Most clients bundle both.

Which framework should we start with?

NIST CSF 2.0 is the broadest foundation. CMMC applies if you touch the DoD supply chain; HIPAA for healthcare data; GDPR if you handle EU residents' data. We'll map it on your readiness call.

Can you work with our existing auditor?

Yes — on Growth and Enterprise tiers we maintain the audit-readiness folder and liaise with your auditor directly.

What does 'capped at 30 seats' mean?

We limit active subscription clients so each one gets genuine executive attention. When seats are full, new clients join a waitlist.

Industries we serve

Compliance mapped to the frameworks your industry is actually held to.

One organisation can answer to five regulators, three customers and an insurer at once. Choose your sector to see how we turn that into one program.

Audit-ready, every day — not just the week before the assessor arrives.

Providers, payers and life-science companies answer to HIPAA, state privacy laws, payer contracts and, for many, FDA and HITRUST expectations at the same time. Enforcement now looks for a current, documented risk analysis and evidence that policies are actually followed.

Where we come in
Run the HIPAA risk analysis and management program as a living system, with evidence captured continuously instead of reconstructed under pressure
Map overlapping obligations — HIPAA, state law, payer and partner contracts, HITRUST — into one control set your team can maintain
Prepare you for OCR inquiries, payer audits and cyber-insurance renewals with documentation already in hand
What you walk away with
One compliance program that answers every regulator, partner and insurer — maintained, not improvised.

A compliance program built for the exam cycle you actually face.

Financial institutions are examined on cyber and operational risk by multiple regulators, must evidence vendor oversight and board engagement, and are now subject to incident-disclosure deadlines measured in days. Gaps are findings, and findings follow the institution.

Where we come in
Build and maintain the risk assessments, policies and board reporting your examiners test against — mapped to the frameworks they use
Run third-party risk management that actually evaluates your core, fintech and cloud providers
Keep incident-reporting and disclosure procedures rehearsed so a deadline never becomes a violation
What you walk away with
Exams with fewer findings, a board that is demonstrably engaged and vendors you can defend.

Meeting the compliance conditions tied to your funding, data and public trust.

Public bodies must satisfy the frameworks attached to federal data, grants and criminal-justice systems while answering public-records, privacy and audit requirements — usually without a dedicated compliance team. A failed assessment can cut off data access or funding.

Where we come in
Translate NIST, CJIS, state and grant requirements into a single control baseline your IT team can operate
Produce the system security plans, assessments and POA&Ms oversight bodies expect, in their language
Support audits and attestations so leadership is never surprised by a finding
What you walk away with
Funding and data access protected by a compliance posture you can demonstrate on demand.

Turning customer security clauses and CMMC requirements into a program you can certify.

Manufacturers now inherit compliance from their customers: CMMC for defense work, ISO 27001 and SOC 2 for commercial contracts, and OT standards for connected production. Each is a prerequisite to bid, and most plants have neither the staff nor the documentation to meet them alone.

Where we come in
Assess against NIST SP 800-171 and chart the shortest credible path to CMMC Level 2 certification
Build an ISO 27001 or SOC 2 program sized to a manufacturer, not an enterprise IT department
Document OT security and supply-chain controls so contract flow-downs stop being a scramble
What you walk away with
Contracts you can win and keep, with certifications maintained rather than rebuilt each cycle.

Compliance that protects students, research and the funding that depends on both.

Institutions must satisfy FERPA, GLBA safeguards tied to federal student aid, research-security conditions on grants, state privacy laws for minors and accessibility obligations — while every department runs its own systems. Audit findings put aid and grants at risk.

Where we come in
Build one institution-wide program that covers student, financial, research and health data without duplicating effort
Meet the research-security and CMMC requirements that federal sponsors increasingly attach to awards
Produce the documentation financial-aid auditors and grant officers expect
What you walk away with
Protected funding streams and a compliance posture that supports the mission instead of competing with it.

PCI and privacy compliance that reduces cost and scope instead of adding overhead.

Retailers must maintain PCI DSS 4.0 across stores, e-commerce and call centers while honoring consumer-privacy rights across a patchwork of state laws. Every new channel, app or vendor widens the compliance perimeter.

Where we come in
Reduce PCI scope through architecture and tokenization so compliance gets cheaper as you grow
Operationalize privacy obligations — rights requests, consent, retention, vendor contracts — across all channels
Keep evidence current so annual attestations and customer audits become routine
What you walk away with
Lower compliance cost, fewer surprises from new privacy laws and attestations completed on schedule.

Compliance with teeth — handled with the rigor the penalties demand.

Energy and utility operators face mandatory standards with significant financial penalties, directive-driven requirements for pipelines and growing scrutiny of OT security. Evidence must be precise, current and defensible in an audit.

Where we come in
Operate NERC CIP and sector-directive compliance as a continuous program with evidence ready for audit
Align OT security documentation to IEC 62443 and NIST guidance so assessments confirm what operations already does
Prepare leadership for regulator interactions with clear, honest reporting
What you walk away with

Trade, customer and security compliance that keeps your trucks, ships and contracts moving.

Logistics providers carry customs and trade-security obligations, customer-imposed security standards and payment-data responsibilities, all audited by different parties. Falling short slows cargo and loses contracts.

Where we come in
Maintain CTPAT, customs and partner-security requirements with controls that fit how your operations run
Answer customer audits and RFP security sections quickly with an evidence library kept current
Manage vendor and partner compliance so weak links do not cost you certification

Compliance that satisfies clients, regulators and insurers — without a compliance department.

Firms face professional-conduct rules, the FTC Safeguards Rule for tax and financial work, client-imposed security standards and rising cyber-insurance requirements. Clients now expect written information-security programs and proof they are followed.

Where we come in
Build the written information-security program and policies your clients and insurers ask for
Prepare for SOC 2 or ISO 27001 where client contracts make it necessary
Handle client audits and questionnaires from one maintained evidence set
What you walk away with
Client trust and insurance pricing that reflect a firm with its house in order.

Grant, donor and data compliance that keeps funding flowing and the board confident.

Nonprofits must satisfy funder requirements, federal grant rules, payment-card standards and privacy laws covering donors and beneficiaries, usually with no dedicated compliance staff. Lapses jeopardize funding and the trust the mission depends on.

Where we come in
Map funder, federal and privacy requirements into one practical compliance program
Maintain the policies and evidence boards, auditors and grant officers ask for
Prepare you for financial and program audits with security documentation already in order

Meeting the compliance conditions in bids, contracts and property regulation.

Owners, lenders and public agencies increasingly require security and data-handling commitments from contractors and property firms. Public and federal work brings formal frameworks, while property operations face tenant-privacy and fair-housing rules.

Where we come in
Build the security program and documentation public-sector and institutional clients require to award work
Satisfy CMMC and NIST requirements for federal projects without derailing operations
Keep property and tenant data practices within privacy and fair-housing law

Compliance across properties, brands and borders.

Hospitality groups must maintain PCI compliance at every property, honor privacy rights across multiple jurisdictions and meet brand and franchise standards, all with high staff turnover. One non-compliant property exposes the group.

Where we come in
Standardize PCI and privacy controls across properties with evidence collected centrally
Meet brand, franchise and OTA partner requirements with a repeatable program
Keep up with privacy obligations in every market where guests book from

SOC 2, ISO 27001 and the next framework — run as one program that keeps selling.

Technology companies live or die by trust evidence: SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA for health customers, FedRAMP for public-sector deals and now AI governance standards. Each framework alone is a project; together they must be a system.

Where we come in
Build a unified control set that satisfies SOC 2, ISO 27001 and customer-specific requirements from one evidence base
Prepare for HIPAA, FedRAMP or ISO/IEC 42001 as your market demands, without starting over
Keep compliance continuous so audits confirm rather than disrupt
