Your next enterprise deal is waiting on your security program
Arclight builds a security program that holds up through client security reviews and removes the barrier between your company and the revenue you have already earned. SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and more.
The Arclight Difference
You work directly with an expert. Not a team of juniors and a project manager
The People Doing the Work Are Senior
You work directly with the expert who runs your program, not a pushy sales team that doesn't understand it. The same senior GRC lead is on your account from kickoff through audit.
Built for Your Stage
2 to 500 employees, pursuing enterprise deals or government contracts. We know the compliance triggers that matter at your stage.
Full Framework Stack, Focused Niche
SOC 2, ISO 27001/27701/42001, HIPAA, CCPA, GDPR, NIST CSF, PCI DSS, NIST 800-171, and HITRUST readiness, all under one roof, without the sprawl of a generalist firm.
Our Methodology
The Arc Model: built to grow with you
Clients don't complete phases and move on. They graduate through them as their company scales. We meet you where you are and stay as long as you need us.
Phase 01
Foundation
Best for: Early-stage companies starting their compliance journey
We advise you through your first framework, lay the policy and control foundation, and show what comes next as you grow.
Phase 02
Growth
Best for: Scaling companies with expanding compliance needs
Frameworks are multiplying and your team is stretched. We step into the day-to-day and run the program.
Phase 03
Peak
Best for: A full compliance function without the full-time hire
Arclight runs the entire program: policies, controls, evidence, reporting, and ongoing management.
Phase 04
Evolution
Best for: Companies ready to hire their first internal lead
We help define the role, recruit alongside you, and transition into a strategic advisor.
