Security programs that clear enterprise procurement.
SaaS companies are judged in due diligence by the credibility of their control estate. We design programs that clear enterprise procurement inside a single quarter and hold up across every renewal.
01 — Landscape
The environment.
The modern SaaS threat model concentrates in multi-tenant architecture, sub-processor sprawl, secrets management, and identity federation with enterprise customers. Buyers now expect SOC 2 Type II, a published sub-processor list, a security portal, and a demonstrable vulnerability disclosure program — before commercial conversations advance.

04 — FAQ
Common questions.
How soon should a Series A SaaS company pursue SOC 2?+
As soon as one enterprise deal is contingent on it — typically between Series A and B. Pursuing it before the pipeline exists is premature; waiting until a specific deal is at risk is expensive.
Do we need SOC 2 and ISO 27001?+
Above $10M ARR with a global pipeline, yes — the marginal cost of the second is 30 to 40% of the first when scoped together.
