Standards that make your engineers faster, not slower.
We treat ISO, NIST, SOC2, and sector-specific rules as design materials: if the control is real, the implementation should be testable. If the control is only paper, the audit is expensive theater—and the bad actors do not read your policy PDF anyway.
What we did before
The legacy AlphaVerify CMMC program (Level 1/2, SPRS, C3PAO preparation) is still a dedicated offering for the defense supply chain. The CTO consultancy uses the same seriousness about evidence, but applies it to product and platform velocity.
What we are doing now: standards-integrated architecture
- Control mapping, not control dumping: A matrix that names one system of record (CI, IDP, log store) per family of requirement—so evidence can be re-used across renewals.
- Testable security properties: e.g. “separation of duties for prod deploys” as branch protection + key ceremony + log correlation—not a slide.
- Data classification as code: Annotations, retention policies, and DLP that align to how data actually moves—not only how the policy manual says it should.
- Resilience evidence: SLOs, change records, and incident runbooks that satisfy both operational excellence and auditor expectations.
Frameworks we work with (non-exhaustive)
Horizontal assurance
ISO 27001/27017-flavored control sets, SOC 2 Type I/II, GDPR- and CCPA-relevant data handling, vendor risk questionnaires with honest answers (and fixes). ISO 42001, AIMS A.I. Governance and compliance.
US public sector & critical infrastructure
NIST SP 800-53/171, FedRAMP-shaped builds (customer-owned responsibility models), and crosswalks for defense-adjacent SaaS.
Healthcare & life sciences
HIPAA technical and administrative mapping to cloud-native patterns, FDA - ISO 62304, ISO 13485 software-as-a-device considerations when you touch clinical workflows (always with qualified regulatory counsel in the loop for submissions).
Product-led evidence
Pen-test remediation as a backlog, secure SDLC in tools developers already use, and “evidence bundles” for renewals that do not re-invent the wheel every year.
