Frequently Asked Questions
Why do we need CMMC compliance as a DoD subcontractor?
- Eligibility to bid on Department of Defense (DoD) contracts.
- Protection of sensitive data (e.g., Federal Contract Information for Level 1, Controlled Unclassified Information for Level 2).
- Enhanced cybersecurity posture to reduce risks.
What compliance frameworks do you support?
We provide comprehensive support for SOC 2, CMMC, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and other industry-specific standards. Our team customizes solutions based on your organization’s needs and regulatory requirements.
What is the difference between SOC 2, CMMC, ISO, and HIPAA?
- SOC 2: Focuses on security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy of customer data, primarily for service providers.
- CMMC: A Department of Defense (DoD) framework to ensure cybersecurity maturity for contractors handling federal contract information.
- ISO 27001: An international standard for establishing, implementing, and maintaining an Information Security Management System (ISMS).
- HIPAA: A U.S. law requiring safeguards for protecting sensitive patient health information (PHI). We can help you understand which applies to your business and how to achieve compliance.
How long does it take to achieve compliance?
- SOC 2: 3-12 months (Type 1 faster, Type 2 includes a longer audit period).
- CMMC: 6-18 months, depending on your target maturity level.
- ISO 27001: 6-12 months for certification.
- HIPAA: 3-9 months, depending on existing controls. We’ll conduct an initial gap assessment to provide a tailored timeline.
What is a gap assessment, and why do I need one?
A gap assessment identifies weaknesses in your current processes, policies, and controls compared to the requirements of your chosen framework. It’s the first step to building a roadmap for compliance and ensures we address all deficiencies efficiently.
Can you help us prepare for an audit?
Yes! We assist with pre-audit preparation, including documentation, policy development, evidence collection, and staff training. For SOC 2 and ISO 27001, we also coordinate with auditors to ensure a smooth process.
Do you provide ongoing compliance support after certification?
Absolutely. Compliance is not a one-time event. We offer managed services like continuous monitoring, regular risk assessments, policy updates, and incident response to maintain your compliance over time.
What is your industry focus?
We work with businesses in healthcare, defense contracting, technology, SaaS, finance, and more—any sector requiring robust compliance with SOC 2, CMMC, ISO, or HIPAA standards.
How much does compliance support cost?
Costs depend on your organization’s size, complexity, and the framework(s) you’re targeting. After an initial consultation and gap assessment, we provide a detailed quote tailored to your needs. Our pricing is transparent, with no hidden fees. We do not charge fees on hardware or software licenses.
What happens if we fail an audit?
If you don’t pass an audit, we’ll analyze the auditor’s findings, help you remediate gaps, and prepare you for a re-audit. Our goal is to ensure you achieve and maintain compliance.
Do we need to hire additional staff for compliance?
Not necessarily. Our team acts as an extension of your organization, handling the heavy lifting of compliance tasks. However, we may recommend designating an internal point of contact to streamline communication.
How do you ensure our sensitive data stays secure during the process?
We follow strict security protocols, including encryption, access controls, and non-disclosure agreements (NDAs). Our own systems are compliant with industry standards to protect your information.
Can you help with multiple compliance frameworks at once?
Yes, we specialize in aligning overlapping requirements across frameworks (e.g., SOC 2 and ISO 27001) to save you time and resources while achieving multi-framework compliance.
What kind of documentation will we need to provide?
This varies by framework but typically includes policies, procedures, risk assessments, employee training records, and evidence of technical controls (e.g., logs, configurations). We’ll guide you on exactly what’s needed.
How do you stay up-to-date on compliance regulations?
Our team continuously monitors updates from regulatory bodies (e.g., AICPA for SOC 2, DoD for CMMC, OCR for HIPAA) and participates in industry training to ensure our expertise remains current as of March 17, 2025, and beyond.
