Compliance Readiness
Readiness is the process of evaluating an organization's existing controls, policies, and procedures against SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria, PCI DSS or ISO controls, or additional frameworks applicable to your unique requirements in preparation for successful external assessments. Concerto assists by identifying gaps, providing expert guidance, and helping organizations strengthen their security posture to meet the required criteria.
What is a Readiness Assessment?
A Readiness Assessment evaluates an organization's preparedness for an external audit or desired framework, identifying gaps in controls and providing guidance on meeting required controls, processes, and policies.
- Mapping existing controls to relevant Trust Services Criteria
- Comprehensive gap analysis to uncover control deficiencies
- Customized remediation plan with specific timelines and deliverables
- Support for both external audits and self-assessments
- Ensuring proper documentation and evidence for each control
