Bastion Security & Compliance Services is a managed security and compliance offering that combines software tooling with human expertise. The service is structured around a Virtual CISO (vCISO) model, where a dedicated security expert is assigned to guide organizations through compliance frameworks and security programs. The service covers four main areas: 1. **Virtual CISO / Compliance Management:** A dedicated security expert handles policy creation, control implementation, risk assessments, and continuous monitoring. The vCISO serves as a single point of contact throughout the compliance lifecycle, from initial implementation to audit completion. 2. **Penetration Testing:** Expert-led penetration testing targeting web applications, APIs, networks, and cloud environments. Testers simulate real-world attack scenarios to identify exploitable vulnerabilities. Engagements include detailed remediation reports and retesting to verify fixes. 3. **Internal Audits (ISO 27001):** Experienced auditors evaluate an organization's Information Security Management System (ISMS) against ISO 27001 requirements, identify gaps and non-conformities, and assist with corrective actions prior to certification body review. 4. **Certification Audit Support:** The vCISO assists organizations in preparing for and navigating certification audits (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001) by organizing logistics, facilitating communication, tracking evidence requests, and managing timelines. Supported compliance frameworks include SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and HIPAA. The service is positioned for companies seeking certification or ongoing compliance maintenance without building an in-house security team.
