Challenge

A Series B fintech needed SOC 2 Type II to close enterprise contracts. They had no security program, no CISO, and a 9-month runway to their first audit.

What we did

  • Engaged as vCISO and built the security program from zero
  • Implemented Drata for continuous evidence collection
  • Hardened Microsoft 365, Okta, and AWS
  • Stood up the full policy suite and ran the audit alongside the client’s team

Outcome

  • SOC 2 Type II achieved with zero qualifications
  • Unlocked $4.2M in previously gated enterprise contracts
  • Cyber insurance premium reduced 31% at renewal
  • The vCISO now presents quarterly to the board
