Dedicated Support for Annual Compliance Reviews

Annual Compliance Reviews, Minus the Scramble.

Once a year, the evidence requests, policy refreshes, and control questions all arrive at once. If your team is small, those tasks land on the same people already running security, IT, and everything else with a power cord.

Auditwerx gives you extra hands exactly when you need them. We work alongside your team as a service provider and partner, helping you prepare, gather, organize, and close gaps so your annual review runs on a plan instead of adrenaline.

Virtual GRC Services

What are Virtual GRC services? Virtual GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) services give you access to a seasoned GRC team on a flexible basis, without the cost of building a full-time department. Think of it as a GRC bench you can call in when it counts.

How is that different from a traditional consultant? A consultant often delivers a report and heads for the door. Our Virtual GRC engagement is designed to work as an extension of your team, so the program you end up with is one your organization owns and can keep running.

Governance Roadmap

Clear compliance goals, policies, and workflows tied to business priorities.

Risk Assessment

Identifying and prioritizing risk across infrastructure, vendors, and processes.

Framework Alignment

One set of mapped controls instead of four separate to-do lists.

Leadership Reporting

Clear summaries your executives and board can actually read.

Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) Services

MSSP Services

What is a Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP)? An MSSP is an outside partner that manages parts of your security program so your team doesn’t have to carry all of it. Unlike a general Managed Service Provider (MSP), which keeps IT running day to day, an MSSP focuses specifically on security.

Where Auditwerx fits: We focus on the security work that supports your annual compliance review. We are not a 24/7 monitoring service, and we’re happy to work alongside the one you already have.

Vulnerability Assessment

Internal and external scans to find and fix weaknesses before review time.

Safeguards Review

Making sure technical configurations line up with framework requirements.

Response Planning

Building and refreshing response plans and documentation to meet regulatory expectations.

Control Alignment

Technical guidance so your hardware, software, and administrative settings satisfy the controls you’re measured against.
