Compliance as a Service
Compliance readiness for SOC 2, HIPAA, NIST, and CMMC
Gap assessment, control implementation, evidence collection, and audit support across SOC 2, HIPAA, the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, CMMC, and PCI DSS. We get your environment audit-ready, then stand with you through the audit itself, and keep you that way afterward.
Compliance work for healthcare practices, law firms, financial services, defense contractors, and professional services firms.
What compliance readiness includes
Compliance work is more than a checklist. Here is what a readiness engagement actually includes, whether you are chasing a SOC 2 report, a HIPAA audit, or a CMMC assessment.
Gap assessment
We compare your environment against the specific controls in SOC 2, HIPAA, the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, CMMC, or PCI DSS, whichever applies to you. You get a documented gap list ranked by what your auditor will flag first, so you know exactly where to focus before the audit clock starts.
Control implementation
We do not just hand you the gap list. We implement the controls that close it: access controls, encryption, logging, multi-factor authentication, backup and recovery, and incident response. The actual engineering work between assessment and audit.
Evidence collection
Auditors do not take your word for it, they want evidence. We document the controls, capture configuration screenshots, pull logs, and assemble the binder of proof in the format your auditor will accept without revisions.
Audit support
We stand with you through the audit itself: pre-audit walkthroughs with your team, auditor question coordination, evidence delivery during fieldwork, and post-audit remediation if findings come back. You are not facing the auditor alone.
Frameworks we support
The standards most relevant to regulated organizations. Tell us which one your customers, your industry, or your contract requires, and we map the work to it.
SOC 2 compliance
For service organizations proving trust to enterprise customers. We support SOC 2 readiness for Type 1 and Type 2 audits across all five Trust Services Criteria: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. Our walkthrough of what readiness actually takes is in the field note below.
HIPAA compliance
For healthcare practices, billing companies, and any business handling Protected Health Information. We translate the HIPAA IT requirements into real controls, helping you meet the Security Rule, Privacy Rule, and Breach Notification requirements, with BAA support and OCR audit preparation.
NIST Cybersecurity Framework
For organizations building a risk-based cybersecurity program. We map your environment to the five functions of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover, aligned to the CSF 2.0 updates. It is also the backbone most other standards borrow from.
CMMC compliance
For defense contractors and suppliers in the DoD supply chain. We have already taken an organization through to CMMC compliance, implementing the underlying NIST SP 800-171 controls and assembling the evidence the C3PAO assessor expects. This is ground we have covered, not theory. We prepare you for the assessment, we do not certify it ourselves.
PCI DSS compliance
For any business that processes, stores, or transmits payment card data. We handle the 12 core requirements, from network segmentation and encryption through vulnerability management and access control.

Compliance as a service, not a one-time scramble
Passing an audit once is the easy part. Staying compliant through the next renewal, the next customer security review, and the next cyber insurance questionnaire is where most teams lose ground. We run compliance the way we run managed IT: continuously.
The same monitoring, logging, multi-factor authentication, access control, and tested backups we deploy as part of our cybersecurity and managed IT double as living compliance evidence. You do not pay twice for the same controls, and the binder is ready when the auditor or underwriter asks.
That is what makes a SOC 2 Type 2 surveillance period, an annual HIPAA risk analysis, or a CMMC reassessment a refresh instead of a rebuild. Many of the controls also satisfy what your cyber insurance carrier now requires to write or renew a policy.
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about SOC 2, HIPAA, NIST, CMMC, and getting compliant.
What is compliance as a service?
It is ongoing, managed compliance rather than a one-time scramble before an audit. We implement the controls, then keep the monitoring, logging, evidence, and documentation current month to month, so your next SOC 2, HIPAA, or CMMC cycle is a refresh instead of a rebuild. It pairs naturally with our managed IT and security.
Do you issue SOC 2, HIPAA, or CMMC certifications?
No, and be cautious of anyone who says they do. We get your environment genuinely ready, implement the controls, collect the evidence, and support you through the formal audit or assessment performed by the appropriate independent party, the CPA firm for SOC 2 or the C3PAO for CMMC.
Which compliance frameworks do you support?
SOC 2, HIPAA, the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, CMMC, and PCI DSS. If your industry or a client contract requires a specific standard, tell us during scoping and we will map our work to it.
What does meeting our cyber insurance requirements involve?
Most carriers now require the same core controls a framework does: multi-factor authentication, tested backups, endpoint detection, and an incident response plan. We implement them and document the proof your underwriter asks for. We break the common requirements down in our field note on cyber insurance requirements.
We have an audit deadline. Can you help in time?
Often, yes. The first step is a gap assessment so we both know the real distance to the finish line. From there we build a realistic plan, and we will tell you honestly what is achievable before the deadline and what is not.
Is compliance separate from your managed IT and security?
It is available on its own, but it works best alongside them. The monitoring, logging, access control, and backup we deploy as part of managed IT and security double as compliance evidence, so you are not paying twice for the same controls.
What does compliance readiness cost?
It depends on the framework, your current state, and the size of your environment. We quote it in writing after a gap assessment, so the number reflects the actual work, not a guess.
Know exactly how far you are from compliant
A gap assessment turns a vague deadline into a clear, prioritized plan. Tell us the framework and the timeline, and we will tell you the truth about what it takes.
