As an emerging consultancy provider, AssuranceLab entered the market at the right time for their SOC 2 cyber security services. However because of this, they couldn’t keep up with the demand for their services. Consultants in cyber security, assurance, and audit, often rely on a good understanding of each client’s business which involves a very broad operational focus and relies on multiple, often many, client contacts.

Collecting that information manually is time consuming, prone to error, and is full of ambiguity. Consultants get lost in detail and then are unable to make sense of it all. The common criticisms of consulting providers are; they’re expensive, not available when you need them, and hit or miss on quality. Clients find it hard to verify if their outputs are complete and appropriate. CEO Paul Wenham describes this as “a leap of faith.”
