Compliance doesn't end when the audit does
Most companies treat compliance like a project with a finish line: pass the audit, get the report, move on. Six months later nobody remembers which controls are theirs. We manage the program after the certificate is signed, tracking ownership, catching drift, keeping evidence current so the next audit isn't a fire drill.
Here's what actually happens after a SOC 2 or ISO 27001 audit: the team that built the program gets reassigned, the person who owned each control changes jobs, and eighteen months later your compliance platform is quietly lighting up red. Nobody did anything wrong. Nobody did anything at all. That's the problem.
We run the program as an ongoing job, not a one-time push. Every control has a named owner and a status we're actually watching. Policies get updated when your stack changes, not frozen the day the auditor left. Evidence stays current, so when renewal season comes around, you're not gathering nine months of screenshots in a week.
If you've already done the hard part, gotten certified once, this is how you don't have to do it again from scratch. It's cheaper than a full-time compliance hire and more reliable than whoever has spare time this quarter.
What's included
Control ownership & monitoring
Every control assigned to a real owner, with a status we track, not a spreadsheet nobody opens after week one.
Remediation tracking
Failing controls get triaged and driven to resolution instead of sitting in the platform accumulating.
Policy maintenance
Policies updated as your team, tools, and processes change, not frozen the day the audit ended.
Audit & renewal prep
Evidence stays current so annual recertification is routine, not a scramble the week before.
Living risk register
A risk register reviewed on a real cadence, not a PDF created once to satisfy the auditor.
Frequently asked questions
We already passed our audit. Why do we need this?
Because the audit is a snapshot, not a warranty. New hires need offboarding. New vendors need review. A code change touches a control you forgot existed. Without someone actively watching, controls drift out of compliance between audits, and you find out during the next one, at the worst possible time to find out.
Do you work inside our GRC platform, or do we need something separate?
Whatever you're already running. If you want platform-specific work, configuration, integrations, failing test triage, that's our GRC Platform Management service specifically. This service is the operating discipline underneath it, tool or no tool.
How much of our team's time does this take?
Not much, and that's the point. We handle monitoring, tracking, and remediation coordination directly. Your team gets looped in when something needs their access or their judgment call, not for the day-to-day upkeep.
Ideal for
- Companies that passed SOC 2 or ISO 27001 and need someone to own it going forward
- Teams whose GRC dashboard shows failing controls with no one driving them to zero
- Organizations heading into a Type II observation period or annual recertification
- Companies bolting a second framework onto an existing program
