Read the blog →Enterprise security teams use traztech for specialist depth: AI red-teaming, offensive testing, vendor risk, and board-ready reporting that augments the internal program.
Enterprises have security teams, but specialist demand outpaces internal bandwidth, and the board wants assurance the internal team cannot always provide on its own.
A large vendor stack means continuous third-party risk assessment, and regulators and customers expect it to be rigorous.
The board wants clear, defensible reporting on security posture, and increasingly an independent voice behind it.
AI red-teaming, offensive testing, and emerging-threat work often exceed what an internal team can staff.
An outside expert who can challenge assumptions and validate the internal program adds credibility that internal sign-off cannot.
We augment the internal team where specialist depth or an independent voice is worth more than another headcount.

IR Retainertraztech is run by a published security researcher with five published CVEs, including CVE-2024-45163 (CVSS 9.1), the kill-switch for the Mirai botnet covered by CyberInsider. We bring the AI red-team and offensive depth internal teams are rarely staffed for, plus the independent voice the board values. That is the specialist depth enterprise teams bring us in for.
See the full research and CVE record, or read how we work with our partners. Once you are engaged, our auditor management & advocacy and vulnerability management services keep the program moving, tracked through your existing traztech Workspace.
For specialist depth your team is not staffed for, such as AI red-teaming and offensive testing, and for the independent assurance the board and your customers value. We augment rather than replace.
Yes. Independent offensive testing, delivered with our offensive-security partner, validates your internal program and gives you a credible third-party report.
A fractional CISO engagement can produce board-ready security reporting and provide an independent voice on posture, risk, and program maturity.
Yes. We threat-model the AI surface against the OWASP LLM Top 10, and our offensive-security partner runs the adversarial testing, including prompt injection and agent abuse.
We help build or strengthen the third-party risk program: tiering, assessment cadence, and reporting, so a large vendor stack stays under control.

Book a callEvery readiness programme needs a control library, an evidence register, policies and a score for the board. Being quoted five figures a year for that is normal. Paying it is not.
| traztech Workspace | Other GRC platforms | |
|---|---|---|
| Licence cost | $0. Free forever, no card, no paid tier | $7,500 to $50,000 a year, on an annual contract |
| Control library, evidence register, policy templates, risk register, vendor questionnaires, readiness scoring | Included | Included |
| What it costs inside an engagement with us | $0. You need a workspace either way | Unchanged. The subscription sits on top of the fee |
| What it does to your audit quote | $11,000 off a five-figure quote on one engagement, for a documented readiness position | Nothing. The audit firm prices your readiness, not your tooling |
Pricing in the right column is what compliance automation platforms are publicly reported to charge; none of them publish a number, so treat it as a range rather than a quote. The $11,000 came off the audit firm's own number once the readiness position was documented (the engagement). Where a paid platform is the better buy, and the fuller comparison, is on the Workspace page.
Track record
We are deliberately not a large firm, and we would rather show you the work than a wall of logos. Here is what is behind the advice.
Five published CVEs. CVE-2024-45163 (CVSS 9.1) is a flaw in the Mirai botnet itself, which gave defenders a way to shut down attacker infrastructure. CVE-2026-42626 takes HP ENVY 5000 printers offline from any unauthenticated device on the same network.
The printer is the one that matters on a compliance page: an asset nobody counts as a computer, on a flat network, downed by a device that never had to log in. Auditors ask how controls fail. We have found out first-hand.
At Humera, a venture-backed US security company, Jacob built the compliance programme in-house from nothing: no report, no policies, no documented controls. It ended in a Type II attestation across 76 controls with zero exceptions, on a team of 15.
The platform held 99.9% uptime throughout, which is the part most readiness projects get wrong: controls are easy to design and hard to retrofit onto a system people already depend on.
For a Waterloo data centre operator we ran SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001:2022 together rather than one after the other, across a production campus, an AI compute platform and a self-hosted collaboration stack. Scoped so further Ontario and Quebec sites enter as they reach production. Findings delivered and remediated.
For an Ontario medtech company putting an AI clinical assistant in front of practitioners, we ran the gap analysis and built the evidence programme behind their SOC 2.
