Frameworks that pass scrutinyand reduce risk.
Audit season shouldn't be a fire drill. SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, ISO 27001, AI governance, whichever framework is on your calendar. We design controls auditors actually accept and evidence patterns your team can collect without rebuilding the program every year.
A control is only as good as the evidence behind it, and we design for what auditors actually accept.
A program designed for evidence, not just policy.
Six deliverables that turn compliance from a fire drill into a capability. Each one owned by the same senior practitioner from gap assessment through the audit floor.
- 01Framework gap assessment
Honest baseline against the framework you need to pass. No maturity-model theater, just gaps and the sequenced path to close them.
- 02Control design & evidence collection
Controls that work in your environment, with evidence auditors will accept. We design once; your team collects forever.
- 03Audit prep & response
Lead-up coaching, fieldwork support, finding response. We sit through the audit if we built the program. No outsourced spectator.
- 04Continuous compliance monitoring
Quarterly control reviews, evidence-freshness checks, drift detection, so next year's audit isn't a fire drill.
- 05Risk register & treatment plans
A register your team can actually maintain. Treatments with owners and dates. The board reviews it on a real cadence.
- 06AI governance program
NIST AI RMF and ISO 42001 alignment, AI use-case inventory, model-risk policy, LLM threat modeling, vendor AI assessments.
Control matrix
Three situations where this fits.
First-time compliance
You're chasing your first SOC 2 or HIPAA attestation. We get you from zero to audit-ready without the consulting-firm bloat. Controls your engineers can live with, evidence your team can sustain.
Multi-framework mid-market
You're SOC 2 today, ISO 27001 next year, PCI DSS already. We design controls that satisfy all of them without duplicating evidence, and keep the program coherent as new frameworks land.
AI-era compliance
You're shipping AI features and the board wants assurance. We stand up an AI governance program that satisfies legal, risk, and engineering, mapped to NIST AI RMF and ISO 42001.
From gap to attestation, end to end.
Most framework engagements run 3 to 12 months; multi-framework programs run continuously. The cycle repeats per framework: assess, design, build, attest.
We have been on both sides of the audit.
- 01
Senior, all the way through.
The person scoping the engagement is the person sitting in the audit room. No partner-to-associate handoff, no template factories. Controls designed by practitioners who have operated them.
- 02
Built for evidence, not policy.
A control is only as good as the evidence behind it. We design for what auditors actually accept, with collection patterns your team can sustain quarter after quarter. No more frantic week before fieldwork.
- 03
Cross-framework, not single-stamp.
We map controls across SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and NIST CSF so each piece of evidence does work for multiple frameworks. One control, many audits.
- 04
Software-enabled, not software-dependent.
Where it helps, we use our own platforms: Scout for third-party risk and vendor evidence, Command for program tracking and board reporting. The leverage of running on tested platforms without being locked into one.
A 30-minute conversation, not a sales call.
Tell us which framework is on your calendar. We'll tell you whether you're realistically ready, and what it takes to close the gap.
