How we work

Every engagement is scoped to your situation

We don't publish fixed price tables because no two companies start from the same place. Instead, we scope every engagement to your environment, timeline, and goals — then give you a fixed-fee proposal so you know exactly what you're investing before we start. Most clients invest significantly less than working with a traditional consulting firm.

Start here

Vanta Kickstart

Already have Vanta (or just bought it) and stuck? Kickstart is a fixed-scope sprint to get your instance configured correctly and deliver a clear roadmap to audit readiness.

Fixed fee · 5–10 business days

  • Review of current Vanta environment (or license provisioning if new)
  • Core integration setup (Google Workspace, AWS/Azure, GitHub, HRIS)
  • Analysis of failing tests and misconfigurations
  • Control gap review aligned to SOC 2 scope
  • Prioritized remediation roadmap
  • Fixed-fee proposal for full readiness engagement (if needed)

If we don't believe you need a full readiness engagement, we'll tell you.

Flexible monthly retainer

  • Continuous control monitoring and alert review

Our approach

How pricing works

Fixed-fee, scoped to you

Every engagement starts with a scoping conversation. We learn about your environment, your goals, and your timeline — then present a fixed-fee proposal with a clearly defined scope. No hourly billing surprises. No scope creep. You know what you're investing before we start.

Most clients find that working with Cyberneza costs significantly less than a traditional consulting engagement — and moves faster, because you work directly with a senior consultant from day one.

What factors affect your quote

  • Your target framework (SOC 2, ISO 27001, or both)
  • Current state of your security program and existing controls
  • Team size and environment complexity
  • Your timeline and any hard deadlines (customer deals, procurement requirements)
  • Whether you already have Vanta or need it provisioned

What's Included

  • Gap assessment and readiness planning
  • Policy and procedure templates tailored to your environment
  • Control implementation guidance and evidence preparation
  • Tool setup support (e.g., Vanta implementation) and evidence workflow guidance
  • Audit coordination and auditor communication support
  • Async support via email and scheduled working sessions

What's Not Included

  • Providing audit or certification services
  • Audit or certification body fees (paid separately by you)
  • Third-party tool subscriptions (Vanta, security software, etc.)
  • Penetration testing or vulnerability assessments
  • Legal review of contracts or NDAs
  • On-site or full-time embedded consulting

Independence & Audit Integrity

Cyberneza does not perform audits or issue certifications. We prepare your organization for independent third-party audits by helping you build, document, and maintain effective controls. You will engage and pay your auditor or certification body separately. This ensures auditor independence and maintains the integrity of the certification process.
