Vanta SOC 2 Rapid Start by Uzado

Accelerate Customer Trust & Build Competitive Advantage

Uzado’s Vanta SOC 2 Type 1 Rapid Start service is designed for smaller organizations with low to moderate risk environments and limited tech stacks, ideal for businesses operating within a single cloud provider and not handling sensitive PII. Uzado streamlines SOC 2 Type 1 compliance using automation, prebuilt integrations, and structured onboarding.

This includes HR/access scoping for up to 20 users, integration of one core technology, policy setup using built-in Vanta templates, and deployment of key tools like SentinelOne EDR (up to 20 devices), Lansweeper ITAM (up to 100 assets), and HacWare PhishPro awareness training (up to 20 users). First SOC 2 Type 1 with MHM CPA is also included. With fast setup, reduced audit prep time, and centralized compliance visibility, this service delivers a cost-effective way to establish trust, reduce manual effort, and prepare for future Type 2 expansion.

Core Objectives

  • Accelerate SOC 2 Type 1 compliance using Vanta’s automation platform
  • Reduce manual audit burden with pre-built policy templates, automated evidence collection, and pre-scoped integrations

Why Type 1 and Not Type 2?

A SOC 2 Type 1 is the fastest, lowest-friction path to proving security maturity. It’s a snapshot of your control design — ideal for new or scaling businesses. As your business grows or you handle more sensitive data, Type 2 builds on this foundation by validating your operations over time.

  • SOC 2 Type 1 provides an audit of your design and intent today, not historical performance.
  • It’s faster, more affordable, and ideal for early-stage companies just formalizing their security practices.
  • Establishes baseline credibility and reduces delays in partner/vendor onboarding.
  • Type 2 is a natural next step once operations stabilize and monitoring controls mature.
