Practical Assurance

Practical Assurance provides specialized services focused on penetration testing and compliance readiness for startups and small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs). The company aims to streamline the often confusing and costly processes associated with achieving security compliance. Their offerings include:
1. Adaptive Penetration Testing: Instead of traditional one-off assessments, Practical Assurance employs an iterative testing process that focuses on ongoing project management and targeted assessments throughout the year. This approach helps to align with the unique needs of SaaS companies, enhancing their security posture while ensuring compliance with standards like SOC 2 and ISO 27001.
2. Compliance Management: The company simplifies complex compliance processes through efficient, software-driven methods. They provide support for managing compliance programs, making it easier for businesses to maintain their compliance status.
3. Virtual Compliance Management: This service offers ongoing support post-SOC 2 readiness, providing expert guidance and compliance management at a fraction of the cost of hiring full-time personnel. Clients can leverage dedicated resources and regular assessments to stay on top of their compliance needs.
4. Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) Support: Practical Assurance also offers fractional CISO services to provide strategic oversight and guidance for companies looking to enhance their security frameworks.
By focusing on partnership and innovation, Practical Assurance delivers real-world value and practical solutions, ensuring businesses can protect client data and meet rigorous compliance standards effectively.
