Security Compliance

Gap analysis through certification and beyond. We guide you through the full compliance lifecycle across EU and international frameworks — with particularly deep experience in financial services and crypto regulation that most firms have never touched.

Overview

Every framework. One partner.

Compliance shouldn't mean juggling consultants, auditors, and templates that never quite fit. We act as your single accountable partner from gap analysis through certification — and stay on for the surveillance audits and ongoing maintenance that come after.

We design your ISMS, run the risk assessment, write policies that match how you actually operate, prepare you for Stage 1 and Stage 2 audits, and coordinate directly with your auditor or QSA. The result holds up under scrutiny — from investors, regulators, and customers alike.

Our experience spans the full landscape of international standards and emerging regulation, including financial-services mandates and virtual-asset frameworks like MiCA and VARA.

“Certification that reflects real security, not just paperwork.”

Phase 03
Implementation

Policies, controls, and evidence built with your team, milestone by milestone.

Phase 04
Reporting

Audit readiness review and direct coordination with your auditor through certification.

Phase 05

FAQ

Security compliance FAQ

Common questions about scope, cost, and timing.

Which compliance frameworks do you support?
ISO 27001, SOC 1 and SOC 2, NIS2, DORA, PCI DSS, Cyber Essentials, GDPR, and the crypto regimes MiCA and VARA, plus CSA STAR for cloud providers.
How much does compliance cost?
From around €1,500 flat for Cyber Essentials to €2,500–5,000 per month for frameworks like ISO 27001, SOC 2, and DORA. Use our estimator for a tailored figure.
How long does certification take?
Typically 1–2 months for Cyber Essentials, 2–4 months for NIS2 or PCI DSS, and 3–6 months for ISO 27001, SOC 2, or DORA.
Do you perform the audit?
No — for independence the audit is performed by an accredited certification body or licensed CPA. We prepare you fully and coordinate the audit end to end.
Which framework do we actually need?
It depends on your customers, sector, and region — e.g. SOC 2 for US enterprise buyers, ISO 27001 internationally, DORA/MiCA for EU finance and crypto. We help you decide during scoping.
Can you do several frameworks at once?
Yes — the control sets overlap heavily, so we run frameworks like ISO 27001 and SOC 2 together to avoid duplicate effort.
Do you help maintain compliance after certification?
Yes — we support surveillance audits, evidence collection, and continual improvement so your certification stays valid year after year.
Do you support crypto regulation like MiCA and VARA?
Yes — deep crypto and digital-asset compliance experience is a core part of our practice, including MiCA (EU) and VARA (Dubai).
