Get SOC 2 ready. Close enterprise deals.
Your product is ready for enterprise customers. Your security posture isn't. Fix that in weeks, not months—without hiring a CISO.
The problem
Enterprise revenue is waiting. Security is the blocker.
Every startup founder knows the pain. You've built something great, but procurement won't move.
Enterprise deals blocked by security
You've built the product they want, but procurement won't sign off without SOC 2. The deal sits in limbo while competitors move in.
Can't afford a full-time CISO
Security consultants charge $300/hour. A CISO costs $250K+. You're pre-Series A—that's not in the budget.
Security questionnaires derail your roadmap
Every enterprise prospect sends a different 200-question assessment. Your engineers are answering security questions instead of shipping features.

Common questions
What startups ask us
Type I assesses whether your controls are properly designed at a specific point in time. Type II evaluates whether those controls operated effectively over a period (typically 3-12 months). Most startups begin with Type I to satisfy enterprise clients quickly, then pursue Type II for deeper trust. vCISO Lite helps you achieve Type I readiness in 6-8 weeks, setting you up for a successful Type II observation period.
vCISO Lite connects directly to your tech stack—AWS, GCP, Azure, GitHub, GitLab, Okta, Google Workspace, and 50+ other tools. We continuously pull evidence like access logs, configuration settings, and security events. When it's time for your audit, all evidence is organized and ready to export. No more manual screenshots or last-minute scrambling.
Findings are normal—they're observations from your auditor about gaps that need attention. vCISO Lite helps you track findings, assign owners, and document remediation efforts. Most of our customers complete their first audit with zero or minimal findings because our gap analysis catches issues before the auditor does.
Absolutely. We offer one-click investor data room exports that include your security policies, compliance status, risk analysis, and control evidence—everything a VC's security team wants to see. This is also valuable for M&A due diligence when you're being acquired or acquiring other companies.
Our risk analysis engine evaluates each risk based on likelihood, impact, and your specific business context. It recommends which risks to accept (low impact, expensive to mitigate), which to mitigate (high likelihood, reasonable cost), and which need immediate attention. You get actionable intelligence, not just a list of vulnerabilities.
