Close enterprise deals faster, answer security questionnaires with evidence, and keep customer data safe. Independent audits by CISA-certified auditors, with formal opinions you can share.

  1. First enterprise deal
    “When was your last penetration test?”
    Pen test and Opinion Letter
  2. Selling upmarket
    “Which framework does your program follow?”
    NIST CSF 2.0 assessment
  3. Platform and API growth
    “How do you test the API our data flows through?”
    Web app and API audit
  4. California and EU buyers
    “Show us your CCPA audit and GDPR safeguards.”
    CCPA/CPRA audit
  5. Shipping AI features
    “How is the AI in your product governed?”
    AI governance audit

Security Challenges Facing Technology & SaaS Organizations

Technology and SaaS companies build and run the platforms other businesses depend on. A vulnerability in your product does not stay inside your company; it reaches every customer who trusts you with their data. Enterprise buyers know this, which is why security reviews, SOC 2 requests, and penetration test reports now stand between you and the signed contract.

Recommended Security Services for Technology & SaaS

Match the service to the stage you are at. Most companies start with a penetration test and an Auditor Opinion Letter, then add a framework assessment as they move upmarket.

Common starting point

Penetration Test & Auditor Opinion Letter

As Certified Information Systems Auditors, we are authorized to issue formal audit opinions. Our penetration test simulates a real-world attack, and an Auditor Opinion Letter gives your sales team independent proof to share in security reviews.

Penetration test

NIST CSF 2.0 Maturity Assessment

NIST CSF is the framework enterprise customers most often ask about. In our Reviewed Assessment, a certified auditor reviews the evidence behind all 106 CSF 2.0 subcategories. Need more? Our full audit ends with an independent opinion that is ours, not yours.

Web Application & API Security Audit

Your application and its APIs are your product and your biggest attack surface. We test web apps and REST, GraphQL, and SOAP APIs for OWASP Top 10 flaws, broken authentication and authorization, and data exposure.

Web app security audit

ISO 27001 Internal Audit & Compliance

An independent ISO 27001 internal audit that satisfies clause 9.2, performed by auditors outside your team. If a customer specifically requires SOC 2, we handle the readiness work and our CPA partners issue the report.

Compliance audit

CCPA/CPRA Cybersecurity Audit

California requires an independent annual cybersecurity audit of businesses whose processing presents significant risk to consumers. We perform it, along with GDPR Article 28 and 32 processor audits for the data you process for customers.

AI Governance Audit

If your product uses AI, customers and regulators are starting to ask how it is governed. We review your AI policies, model inventory, and controls against the EU AI Act, the NIST AI RMF, and ISO/IEC 42001.

Built for Your Product and Your Customers

An early-stage startup preparing for its first enterprise deal and a mature platform with hundreds of customers need very different things. We do not sell a fixed package. We scope each engagement around your architecture, your customers’ requirements, and your team, and deliver findings your engineers can act on, not a generic checklist.

Scoped to Your Environment

Applications, APIs, mobile apps, cloud infrastructure, and Microsoft 365. We test what you actually run.

Mapped to Your Customers’ Requirements

Findings tied to NIST CSF, ISO 27001, GDPR, and the frameworks your customers reference, so you can answer security questionnaires with evidence.

Testing That Keeps Up With Releases

Re-testing after major releases shows customers that your security keeps pace with your product, not just last year’s version of it.

How We Help Technology & SaaS Organizations

Technology companies must protect not only their own data but also the data of every customer using their platform. Enterprise buyers increasingly ask for independent audits, alignment with frameworks such as NIST CSF or ISO 27001, and penetration test results before they sign, and a single breach can destroy customer trust and stall growth overnight. Our role is to find the weaknesses in your product and infrastructure before attackers or customers do, and to give you independent evidence that your security is real. As CISA-certified auditors, we are authorized to issue formal audit opinions, so the evidence you share carries an independent auditor’s opinion.

How We Fit Your Growth Stage

We start with the deal in front of you and the question your buyer actually asked. For a first enterprise customer, that is usually a penetration test and an Auditor Opinion Letter your sales team can share. As you move upmarket we add a NIST CSF 2.0 or ISO 27001 assessment, then API, privacy, and AI governance audits as the product and your markets grow. Each report is risk-rated with clear steps to fix what we find, and our support continues for three months after delivery.

Technology & SaaS Security, Explained

As Certified Information Systems Auditors, we are authorized to issue formal audit opinions and compliance letters. That means independent evidence you can share: an Auditor Opinion Letter after a penetration test or audit, a NIST CSF 2.0 assessment reviewed by a certified auditor, and an independent ISO 27001 internal audit. For SOC 2 specifically, only a licensed CPA firm can sign the report, so we handle readiness and our CPA partners issue it.

Independent evidence answers most of them. A web application security audit or penetration test documents how your product holds up to real attacks, and an Auditor Opinion Letter gives your sales team a document from a certified auditor to share during security reviews.

Yes. Our API security audit covers REST, GraphQL, and SOAP APIs, and our mobile application security audit tests the app itself. Mobile backends are often the weakest link because the API trusts the app, so many clients pair the two.
