SOC 2 · HIPAA · Information Security Risk

We recently completed our SOC 2 audit and assessment with C'S|3, a project that initially presented itself as a resource-intensive, almost unattainable task that would go on forever. But with the hand holding, expertise, and guidance from the team at C'S|3, we proceeded through this process at a very organized and controlled pace which resulted in our certification for being SOC 2 compliant.

Our next project is HIPAA compliance, and we are looking to the C'S|3 Team to help us through that certification as well.

How we work

The same four steps, whichever practice you came for

Both halves of the firm run the same way, because both are the same problem: find out honestly where you are, agree what to change, and stay long enough for it to hold.

  1. A 30-minute call

    You tell us what’s being asked of you — a framework, or a team that isn’t working. We tell you honestly what the gap looks like. No charge, no obligation.

  2. Assess

    Controls measured against the framework, or people measured with a validated instrument. Either way you get findings, not impressions.

  3. Roadmap

    Prioritized actions with owners and dates. We work alongside your team rather than over them, because your people are the ones who have to live with the result.

  4. Stay

    Through the audit and into the annual cycle, or through the check-ins that keep a team’s momentum past the quarter. Certification isn’t a finish line and neither is a workshop.

Who you’ll work with

We run SDI on ourselves

It would be hard to sell relational intelligence with a straight face without having been through it. We know our own strengths, and more usefully our own overplayed ones — which is where friction starts on any team, including this one.

The practical version for you: senior consultants directly, and the same people from assessment through remediation to audit.
