Compliance Program Management

SaaS companies serving regulated buyers end up running multiple compliance programs in parallel: SOC 2 for the standard procurement gate, ISO 27001 for European and APAC buyers, HIPAA for healthcare customers, PCI DSS if payments touch your stack, HITRUST for healthcare enterprise, and increasingly NIST AI RMF and EU AI Act for AI-enabled products. Running each as a separate program is 5x the engineering load. Crosswalk -- mapping a single set of underlying controls to multiple framework requirements -- is the only way to scale.

Our approach treats compliance as an engineering problem. The control library lives next to infrastructure code. A single AWS Service Control Policy that enforces MFA satisfies SOC 2 CC6.1, ISO 27001 A.9.4.2, HIPAA 164.312(d), and PCI DSS Requirement 8.3 -- one control, four pieces of audit evidence. We document the crosswalk in a control matrix, automate the evidence collection where possible, and review the gaps quarterly so audits don't become discovery exercises.

GRC platforms surface data, generate templates, and aggregate evidence -- they're useful, but they don't make the engineering decisions. We pair well with whichever GRC platform you bring (we work with most major platforms in the space) by doing the actual control implementation, runbook authoring, and audit liaison work. Or run with our team alone and we'll set up the same evidence pipeline using your existing observability and source control -- skipping the platform license entirely. Either way, your compliance program runs continuously instead of as a once-a-year scramble.
