Client feedback
Yves approaches cybersecurity with a practical mindset, emphasizing solutions that integrate into daily operations. His thoroughness ensured our strategies aligned with regulatory standards while remaining streamlined and accessible, avoiding unnecessary complexity.
We went from a scattered policy library to a working compliance program in under twelve weeks. The audit went exactly as expected — no surprises, no last-minute scrambles. The ability to translate complex requirements into plain language our engineers could act on made all the difference.
We had Vanta purchased and sitting mostly idle. Within three weeks, every integration was live, evidence was collecting automatically, and our control pass rate went from 40% to over 85%. The difference between having the platform and actually using it well is enormous.
Why not alternatives?
Most companies evaluate four paths. Here is an honest comparison.
Estimates. Actual costs vary by scope and company size. ISPH fees include hour estimates and overage rates disclosed upfront.

Common questions
Straight answers before you book the call.
Most compliance consultants deliver a binder of policy templates and a gap report, then invoice. We build the program with you — configuring the GRC platform, writing customized policies that reflect how your company actually operates, coordinating the auditor, and managing evidence collection. The deliverable is a working compliance program, not a set of documents requiring your team to execute everything.
Most companies that buy a GRC platform discover getting integrations working, evidence collecting automatically, and controls showing green requires significant configuration work no one on the team has time for. The Vanta and Drata Configuration service (starting at $2,800) is designed exactly for this situation — getting your existing platform from idle to audit-ready.
Total cost depends on scope, but here is a realistic range for a typical Series A SaaS company: ISPH fee $18K–$28K (Growth tier), plus GRC platform license $10K–$25K/year (Vanta or Drata), plus audit firm fee $15K–$40K. Total budget typically falls in the $50K–$100K range for a first SOC 2. We disclose all three numbers at every scoping call — no surprises.
For a single-product SaaS company with a clean cloud environment: SOC 2 Type I in 10–14 weeks. Type II requires an additional observation period of three to six months after Type I. The biggest variables are evidence access speed, cloud complexity, and whether policies need to be built from scratch. We give you a realistic timeline at the scoping call based on your actual situation.
No. InfoSecProsHub provides compliance program management and security implementation — not legal advice or legal representation. For HIPAA and GDPR engagements, OCR inquiries, breach notification letters, DPA negotiations, and supervisory authority interactions should involve legal counsel arranged and paid by the client.
Most compliance programs collapse after the SOC 2 report drops. Evidence stops collecting, policies go unreviewed, and by the next audit cycle you are starting over. The Compliance Maintenance Plan (starting at $1,600/month) prevents that cliff — keeping evidence current, controls active, and the GRC platform healthy year-round so your next audit is a continuation rather than a restart.
Yes — and we recommend it. Enterprise health system procurement increasingly requires both. There is significant control overlap between HIPAA and SOC 2, meaning the combined cost of doing both together is substantially lower than two separate engagements. The multi-framework approach is available at Professional and Enterprise tiers.
