Frequently Asked Questions

What is internal audit and compliance readiness?

Internal audit and compliance readiness is the process of preparing your organization for ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certification: gap assessment, control mapping, policy documentation, evidence collection, and audit preparation.

Can you issue the ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certificate?

No. ISO certification requires an accredited certification body, and SOC 2 reports require a licensed CPA firm. We prepare you for the audit: gap assessment, control implementation, evidence collection, and documentation, so you pass when the auditor arrives.
