The Operating System for Continuous Trust
Stop treating compliance like a quarterly fire drill. We build the operational cadence with evidence collection, policy updates, and access reviews that keep you audit-ready every single day.
The Fire Drill Approach Kills Velocity
When operations lag behind, quarterly reviews turn into "find everything we missed" sprints. This burns out your team and delays critical deals.
Where It Breaks Down:
The Evidence Gap: Logs and screenshots are scattered across tools, making them impossible to find when an auditor asks.
The "Zombie" Policies: Rules exist on paper but aren't built into day-to-day work, failing the "Design Effectiveness" test.
The Ownership Void: No one knows who owns the risk—Security, Engineering, or Legal—so it falls through the cracks.
The Result: Even strong controls fail during review because you can't prove they were happening yesterday.
We Turn Panic Into Process
We know how quickly operations fall behind when you are shipping product or fundraising. We handle the heavy lifting so you don't have to.
How We Help: Aetos manages the operational layer. We handle the versioning, logs, vendor oversight, and documentation updates informed by SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and more. We keep the lights on so your team can focus on the roadmap.
Controls vs. Operations: The System
-
Controls
The Rule
What you are expected to do (e.g., encrypt data).
-
Processes
The Action
How your team actually does it (e.g., AWS KMS Settings).
-
Operations
The Heartbeat
How it is maintained, updated, and documented over time. This is where Aetos lives. We ensure the evidence exists to prove Step 1 and Step 2 happened.
