GRC Services · IT Governance Policy
Governance documentation your team will use
Policies nobody reads do not protect you. We develop governance documentation that is clear, compliant, and usable by the people responsible for following it.

Policies built for how you work
A lot of companies have policies copied from a template that do not reflect actual operations and were never reviewed after being signed. Auditors notice. More importantly, your team cannot follow a policy that does not make sense for your environment.
We start by understanding how things run at your company. Then we build or update documentation that reflects reality, meets compliance requirements, and gives your team clear guidance on what to do.
Every policy includes an implementation guide so there is no ambiguity about what changes with the new documentation.
Security
Information Security Policy
Access control, acceptable use, incident response, and data classification aligned with SOC 2 or your applicable framework.
ITGC
Change Management Policy
Formalized change control covering development, testing, approval, and deployment. Aligned with ITGC expectations for SOX and SOC audits.
ITGC
Access Control & User Provisioning
Onboarding, offboarding, access review, and privileged access procedures. Written so your admins can run them day to day.
Risk
Vendor & Third-Party Risk Policy
Vendor assessment process, SOC report review requirements, and ongoing monitoring. Covers the SOC 2 vendor management criteria.
Response
Incident Response Policy & Runbooks
Detection, escalation, containment, and post-incident review procedures. Includes notification requirements for regulated data environments.
GRC
Risk Management Policy & Framework
Risk identification, assessment, response, and monitoring process documentation. Supports SOC 2 risk assessment criteria and enterprise GRC programs.
Policies that collect dust are not policies. They are liability.
We have reviewed enough audit findings to know what policy failure looks like. Cookie-cutter templates, procedures that do not match your systems, and documents nobody has read since they were signed. We fix that before an auditor finds it.

Not sure what you have?
We offer policy gap reviews as a standalone engagement. We assess your existing documentation against the applicable framework, identify what is missing or outdated, and give you a prioritized list of what to build or fix first.
Document collection
We review existing policies, procedures, and standards, including anything informal your team relies on.
Gap analysis
We map your documentation against framework requirements and identify gaps, outdated content, and operational mismatches.
Prioritized roadmap
A clear report showing what to build, what to update, and what is already solid, with priorities based on audit risk.
03 · Is This You?
Who needs this work
- Preparing for a first audit
- You are going through SOC 2 or a SOX ITGC review for the first time and realize your policy documentation does not reflect how your systems operate.
- Policies from a template
- You bought a policy package or downloaded something from the internet. It does not reflect your environment and your team has no idea what it says.
- Audit findings around documentation
- Your last audit cycle produced findings related to missing, outdated, or non-operational policies. We remediate those findings and make sure they stay closed.
- Building a GRC program
- You are establishing a formal governance structure and need the foundational policy documentation in place before your first compliance review or customer security questionnaire.
