⏚ Summary

What this engagement is, plainly.

Compliance is a side-effect of how you build. We wire controls into your engineering systems so audits become evidence queries and new frameworks are incremental work — not month-long fire drills.

Problems we solve

  • You're scaling into regulated industries or regions and need compliance fast.

  • Audit prep is a month-long ordeal that pulls senior engineers off the roadmap.

  • Your controls live in wikis and spreadsheets that drift from the running system.

⏚ Approach

How we run this engagement.

  1. 01Phase

    Map controls to frameworks

    Existing technical controls mapped to the frameworks you need (SOC 2, GDPR, APP, HIPAA, ISO 27001). Most teams already cover 60% — we close the gap with code.

  2. 02Phase

    Evidence pipeline

    Every control emits structured evidence automatically: change logs, access reviews, vulnerability scans, backup verifications. Auditors get a read-only view.

  3. 03Phase

    Continuous attestation

    Control drift is detected within hours, not at the next audit. New frameworks add deltas, not duplicated work.

⏚ Deliverables

What you get, signed off.

  • Control catalog + framework mapping

  • Evidence pipeline + auditor portal

  • Privacy impact assessments (DPIAs)

  • Data flow + retention policies (as code)

  • Continuous attestation dashboards

⏚ Stack we typically use

Tools, not religion.

We pick on workload and team shape, not on fashion. Anything below is a default — swappable when your context demands.

  • Drata
  • Vanta
  • OPA
  • GitHub Actions
  • Cloud Custodian
  • OneTrust

Outcome

Audits feel like running a query. New frameworks become incremental. Engineers ship instead of producing screenshots.

Have a hard problem worth doing once, well?

We take a small number of engagements per quarter. If your program needs serious operators, we'd like to hear about it.
