Build a compliance program that connects policy, technical controls, documentation, and audit evidence. Citrusbug's compliance consulting services help regulated organizations prepare for SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and other requirements while aligning compliance with how their systems actually operate.
SOC 2
ISO 27001
HIPAA
GDPR
Trusted by industry leaders
Certifications and Accreditations
Compliance responsibility split across IT, legal, and operations with no single accountable owner.
Applicable regulations identified late, after architecture decisions are already locked in.
Technical safeguards exist but were never mapped to the specific control language an auditor tests against.
A program built for one framework and one entity that breaks the moment the company adds a market or acquires another company.
A structured gap assessment tells you exactly what stands between your current systems and the certification you need.
Book a Compliance ConsultationCompliance works best when policy and engineering operate as one program. Our consultants connect control requirements directly to your systems, translating compliance obligations into controls your engineering teams can implement, validate, and maintain.
We map one shared control set across SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA simultaneously wherever their requirements overlap, so your team isn’t rebuilding the same access control policy three separate times for three separate frameworks.
We build the actual encryption, access control, and logging systems a framework requires, backed by a full security architecture review so controls match your real infrastructure, not a generic template.
We write the policy and procedure set an auditor tests against in language specific to how your systems actually work, not boilerplate with your company name swapped in.
We configure continuous evidence collection and control monitoring into your existing stack, so proof of compliance accumulates automatically instead of getting assembled by hand before each audit.
We stand up vendor risk programs that catch the risk and compliance exposure your own controls can’t reach, since most breaches now originate through a subprocessor, not the primary system.
We build the response plan and notification workflow your framework requires, then test it before a real incident forces you to find out it doesn’t work.
Enterprise security reviews routinely run into the hundreds of questions, and procurement teams increasingly ask for a current SOC 2 report or ISO 27001 certificate before a contract moves past legal. A deal that stalls at that stage doesn’t reopen when you’re ready; it reopens on the buyer’s schedule. The same pattern shows up at renewal time for cyber insurance, where carriers are pricing risk based on documented controls, not stated intentions.
Waiting rarely saves money either. Companies that delay compliance work until a deal forces the issue end up compressing a six-month control build into six weeks, which means paying rush rates for the same work and accepting a higher chance of failing the first audit attempt.
Every framework carries a different scope, a different audience, and a different current requirement. Trying to satisfy all of them with one generic control set is how companies end up redoing the same work twice.

Healthcare, fintech, and enterprise SaaS buyers face compliance obligations that generic IT consulting rarely accounts for, from HIPAA's technical safeguard requirements to the vendor due diligence banks run on every fintech partner before signing.
Discuss Your Compliance NeedsWe define the full regulatory universe that applies to your organization based on industry, data types, geography, and contractual obligations to clients and partners. Most companies undercount this list at the start, missing a framework a key client contract will later require, so we map it against your actual customer base and pipeline, not just your industry category.
We evaluate your current posture against each applicable framework, building a prioritized risk register that ranks findings by severity and remediation effort rather than handing you an undifferentiated list of a hundred issues with no sense of what to fix first.
We design and build the specific technical controls, policies, and procedures your target frameworks require, implemented inside your actual infrastructure and codebase rather than delivered as a document set you're left to translate into engineering work yourselves.
We manage evidence collection, control testing, and auditor communication, structuring the evidence trail around continuous monitoring so nothing needs to be manufactured retroactively in the weeks before the assessor arrives.
We hand off a compliance calendar, monitoring workflows, and defined internal ownership so your posture holds between audit cycles instead of decaying the moment the engagement ends.

We handle compliance readiness, remediation, and technical implementation. The formal SOC 2 examination or ISO 27001 certification is performed by an independent CPA firm or accredited certification body, keeping the assessment separate from the work required to prepare for it.
Compliance readiness should result in working controls, not a stack of policies. Our engineers can implement the access controls, logging, encryption, monitoring, and other technical safeguards that your compliance program requires.

An independent auditor evaluates whether your controls meet the applicable requirements. Our role is to identify gaps, implement remediation, and prepare your organization for that independent assessment, giving you one team responsible for moving the program from identified gaps to operational readiness.
Every gap found, ranked by severity and effort so your team knows what to fix first, not just what exists.
Written to match your actual environment, not a generic template swapped with your company name.
Built alongside our data privacy consulting work so GDPR, CCPA, and internal data handling policies stay consistent with each other.
A repeatable process for assessing new subprocessors before they touch your customers' data, not a one-time spreadsheet.
A structured evidence library mapped to your controls, so your team can retrieve audit evidence quickly without rebuilding documentation each time.
Direct communication with your chosen audit firm through fieldwork, so findings get resolved in days, not weeks of email back and forth.
Cost depends on framework count, current control maturity, and company size, but most single-framework engagements land between $15,000 and $60,000, with multi-framework or enterprise-scale programs running higher.
For teams with an internal engineering resource who need the gap assessment, policy set, and evidence structure, but plan to implement controls themselves.
The most common engagement. We assess, design, and implement the technical controls directly in your systems, then prepare the evidence trail.
For teams that need compliance running as an ongoing function, not a one-time project, with ownership handed off only once it's stable.

Read Article →No. We handle readiness and implementation. The formal audit must come from an independent CPA firm or accredited certification body, which is a requirement for auditor independence, not our preference.
An auditor tells you where you failed. A consultant fixes it first. Going to an auditor without readiness work often means a failed first attempt and a second audit fee.
Most single-framework programs reach audit-ready status in three to six months, depending on current control maturity and how much technical remediation the gap assessment surfaces.
We work alongside your team, implementing controls in your codebase and infrastructure directly rather than working around your engineers or requiring a separate integration phase.
We review the findings with your auditor, remediate the specific gaps, and rebuild the evidence trail for a follow-up assessment, typically within weeks rather than restarting the engagement.
Yes. Most control work overlaps significantly across SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA, so we scope shared controls once and layer framework-specific requirements on top.
Evidence collection is built into continuous monitoring workflows rather than a manual sprint-by-sprint task, so it runs in the background instead of pulling engineers off feature work.
Yes. Early-stage programs often move faster since there's no legacy documentation or conflicting policy to unwind first.
A compliance calendar, monitoring workflows, and defined internal ownership so your posture holds between audit cycles rather than lapsing the day the engagement ends.
Most single-framework engagements run $15,000 to $60,000, scaled by framework count, current control maturity, and company size. Multi-framework programs are scoped individually.
