Built for small teams
Enterprise-grade trust, without enterprise overhead.
- You run a small B2B SaaS or technology company.
- Your team is small and nobody owns compliance full time.
- A customer, investor, or procurement team is asking for SOC 2.
- You want practical help implementing controls—not generic templates.
- You need support after the report to stay ready for renewals.
Why OneHorn
The controls must work in your environment—not only in a policy document.
OneHorn brings nearly two decades of infrastructure, cloud, and technology operations experience to the work. We understand the systems behind the evidence, work directly with founders and engineers, and keep the program proportionate to the risk and size of your company.
No layers of junior consultants. No oversized program. Just clear decisions, hands-on implementation, and steady support through the audit and beyond.
Engagement model
Start with the work you need now.
Small teams should not have to buy an oversized compliance program. We scope each engagement around your current stage, existing controls, audit target, and internal capacity.
Defined-scope projects
Readiness, control implementation, and audit-preparation work can be scoped around clear deliverables and an agreed statement of work.
Ongoing support
Managed compliance is structured as recurring support for evidence, reviews, risks, control changes, and future audit cycles.
SOC 2 FAQ
Questions small technology teams ask before they start.
Does OneHorn issue the SOC 2 report?
No. SOC 2 examinations and reports are performed by an independent licensed CPA firm. OneHorn helps you prepare, implement controls, organize evidence, and support the process leading into the examination.
Do we need a compliance platform first?
Not necessarily. We can help determine whether a platform makes sense for your size and stage. The platform can automate evidence collection, but it does not replace control design, ownership, or implementation.
Should we pursue Type I or Type II?
That depends on your customer requirement, timeline, and current maturity. Type I evaluates control design at a point in time; Type II evaluates controls over a review period. We help you plan the sequence, while your auditor determines the examination requirements.
How long does SOC 2 readiness take?
There is no responsible one-size-fits-all timeline. It depends on scope, existing controls, remediation work, team availability, and the type of report you are pursuing. The readiness assessment is designed to establish a realistic plan.
Can a very small company get SOC 2?
Yes. SOC 2 does not require a large security department. The controls need to be appropriate to your environment, consistently operated, and supported by evidence.
What happens after the first report?
SOC 2 is not a one-time project. Access reviews, risk reviews, vendor oversight, evidence collection, policy maintenance, and other recurring controls continue. Managed Compliance is designed to help a lean team maintain that operating rhythm.
