Who it is for
How we work
Most clients arrive with a customer review or an audit already on the calendar.
We identify real risk and prioritize remediation to reduce actual exposure, not to fill a checklist.
A customer requirement gets a dated plan with costs, usually the same day.
When there is no security hire, we do the work: access reviews, admin cleanup, endpoint rollouts.
We take the auditor's thread and work findings before the report is drafted.
One status email a week: phase, done, risks, next and accountability.
How it fits together
Drata holds the evidence. Your systems feed it every day. Your vCISO sits in the middle, reads the whole picture every week and answers customers, auditors and the board with one story.
Recent engagements

A SOC 2 program, pen test and Drata subscription scoped at $16,100 against a $25,000 estimate.
