Your enterprise deal stalled because of a security questionnaire.

I help B2B SaaS companies get SOC 2, FedRAMP, and HIPAA ready — so security stops killing deals and starts closing them.

The problem

Enterprise procurement is a gauntlet. Most SaaS companies aren’t ready.

Your product is ready. Your pricing is right. But the moment a Fortune 500 procurement team sends a security questionnaire, the deal freezes — sometimes for months, sometimes forever.

Deals stuck at security review

Enterprise buyers require SOC 2, FedRAMP, or HIPAA compliance before signing. Without it, you wait indefinitely.

Failed vendor assessments

Security questionnaires from banks, telecoms, and government agencies expose gaps that kill the conversation.

No internal security expertise

You’re a 50–200 person SaaS company. Hiring a full-time CISO is premature. A generalist can’t navigate audits.

Services

Everything you need to pass enterprise security.

Fixed-fee engagements. No retainer lock-in for assessments. No surprises.
