SOC2 Compliance Defense — Automated Controls & Audit Trails

The Challenge

InsurTech startup needed SOC2 Type II to close a $2M enterprise contract. No existing compliance framework with audit deadline in 45 days.

✗No existing compliance policies or controls
✗Sensitive PII data (SSN, health records) with no encryption at rest
✗No access logging or audit trails
✗Enterprise buyer requiring SOC2 Type II as condition of contract

Our Solution

Deployed Vault with auto-unsealing and secret rotation
Configured Azure Policy initiatives for 40+ compliance controls
Set up Drata for automated evidence collection
Implemented end-to-end encryption for all PII data
Created incident response runbook and tested with tabletop exercise
Results & Impact

Enterprise contract closed within 2 weeks of certification. Ongoing compliance maintained with zero manual effort.
