EVIDENCE SYSTEM
04 / PROOF
Strong security advisory leaves behind more than recommendations. It creates artifacts, ownership and evidence that teams can actually operate.
DEMO ENGAGEMENT / B2B SaaS
The company had security policies and technical controls, but customer security reviews were handled inconsistently and evidence was scattered across teams.
Mapped systems, existing controls, policies, ownership and available security evidence.
Defined control ownership, evidence expectations and a repeatable security review process.
Created a working operating model for maintaining evidence and responding to enterprise customer requests.
