grc platform configuration

Vanta & Drata configuration & optimization

Turn your GRC investment into a working compliance engine — not a dashboard of red. Platform license is client-paid ($10K–$30K+/yr). This fee covers configuration, automation setup, and training.

Most GRC platforms fail because nobody configures them properly

Companies purchase Drata or Vanta and discover that getting integrations working, evidence collecting automatically, and controls showing green requires significant configuration work that no one on their team has time for. That is what we do.

Platform license for Drata or Vanta is client-paid (Drata est. $15K–$40K/yr, Vanta est. $10K–$25K/yr). This service fee covers our configuration, automation setup, and training time — not the platform itself.

In active SOC 2 or ISO 27001 preparation — platform needs full configuration
