Incident Management and Virtual CISO

Company

A leading global payment company

Team

Security, IT

Use Case

We led the client through a structured, compliant incident response — contain, assess, investigate, and remediate. We then stayed on as their virtual CISO, developing security and privacy strategies and implementing compliance guidance.

Impact

By rapidly containing and remediating the incident, we cut average response time by 40% and prevented an estimated $500,000 in potential losses. We then hardened the client's security posture, raising their vulnerability patch rate by 75% and achieving full GDPR compliance. This helped them win 3 major new contracts and deepen customer trust, setting them up for their next stage of growth.

Use Case

The client's goal was clear: achieve SOC 2 certification. But navigating compliance platforms and the audit process itself was daunting. We stepped in — first clarifying the software requirements specific to their compliance scope, then preparing them thoroughly for the audit, and finally sourcing and managing a highly qualified, certified auditor from our network while guiding the client through every step.

Impact

We streamlined their SOC 2 certification, cutting audit prep time by 30% and saving $15,000. Certifying in 3 months secured 2 new contracts, with a projected 20% revenue boost.

Impact

SOC 2, GDPR, and HIPAA compliance achieved in 6 months, with compliance costs cut by 25%. Our trust center management boosted qualified leads by 15%.

Autonomous Driving

GDPR Compliance at Scale

Company

A leading autonomous driving technology company

Team

Security, Legal, Engineering, IT

With years of proven security, privacy, and R&D expertise, Kaamel's expert team acted as the catalyst, charting the project smoothly and delivering it on time to the satisfaction of all stakeholders.

Company

Team

Engineering

Use Case

With GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2 compliance nearly complete via a DIY approach, the customer brought in Kaamel as a consultant to resolve specific issues raised by their auditor and answer detailed questions from existing and prospective customers.

IoT

A Cost-Effective Managed Compliance Roadmap

Company

A fast-growing AI-powered smart device company

Team

Engineering, Compliance

Use Case

Business expansion required the customer to earn a sequence of certifications — SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, ISO 27001/27701, and more. The rising cost and limited results of a DIY approach built on AWS tooling and law firm consultations pushed them to explore other options. After trying Kaamel's privacy scanning product and achieving SOC 2 certification, they trusted Kaamel with all of their compliance services to keep pace with business growth.

Impact

Doing more with less: multi-fold savings on budget and resources while doubling the pace of compliance projects — and bridging the gap between compliance and product.
