The compliance road: from Non-Compliant through Risk Assessment, Implement & Remediate, Audit Ready, and SOC 2 Compliant to Impact Managed Compliance

Practical Compliance. Real Impact.

Get Compliant.
Stay Compliant.

Impact Risk Advisors helps organizations build, implement, and maintain practical cybersecurity compliance programs across SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, NIST, and GLBA.

Whether you need to establish a compliance program or keep an existing program operating, we provide experienced support from initial readiness through ongoing compliance management.

Your compliance journey - Where are you today? Organizations that need to get compliant (SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, NIST, GLBA) move through Readiness & Implementation, a project-based engagement. Organizations that are already compliant and need help managing the program going forward go directly to Impact Managed Compliance. Both paths lead to Impact Managed Compliance: ongoing compliance support for your organization.

Build the Right Compliance Program From the Start.

Impact Risk Advisors helps organizations assess requirements, identify gaps, develop policies and controls, manage risk, address readiness issues, and establish the documentation and processes needed to operate an effective compliance program.

Implementation services are tailored to your actual environment rather than built around generic policies and checklists.

Pricing & Scope

Implementation starting prices are one-time project fees based on one framework, organizations with 1–20 employees, one primary in-scope environment, and typical small-business technology and operational complexity.

Final pricing is based on scope and may increase for larger organizations, multiple entities or environments, additional frameworks, additional SOC 2 Trust Services Categories, complex infrastructure, significant remediation requirements, or other material increases in scope. Organizations outside the standard scope should contact us for a customized quote.

Independent audit, certification, penetration testing, GRC platform, and other third-party costs are separate and are not included in the implementation pricing shown above.

Impact Managed Compliance

Getting Compliant Is Only the Beginning.

Controls need to operate. Policies need to stay current. Risks change. Vendors need review. Evidence needs to be maintained. Findings need remediation. Auditors and customers come back.

Impact Managed Compliance provides ongoing support to keep your compliance program operating, current, and ready throughout the year.

Managed Compliance is optional and can begin after implementation or be used by organizations that have completed their initial compliance effort but need ongoing help managing the program.

Managed Compliance pricing is based on one primary compliance framework, organizations with 1–20 employees, one primary in-scope environment, and a defined standard scope.

Standard framework scope generally includes SOC 2 Security only, HIPAA Security Rule, FTC GLBA Safeguards Rule, an agreed NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 baseline, or one defined ISO 27001 ISMS scope.

Additional frameworks, SOC 2 Trust Services Categories, entities, environments, significant vendor volumes, extensive security questionnaires, or other material increases in scope are priced separately.
