What their customers say
Quotes from people at Cognisys's customers.
“For early-stage startups, there isn’t any way to do it faster than this and still be fully compliant.”
““Joanna’s report was exceptionally thorough and enabled us to set several key actions in motion promptly””
““I found the audit delivery very friendly; it wasn’t like an interrogation or simply going through a dry list of questions.””
““I found the entire team very helpful, especially during our weekly check-ins, where they provided excellent guidance and pointers.””
““We at Sekura prioritise security and compliance while building the missing identity layer for the Internet, making the world a SAFr place.

““You gave us a very clear start date, set the expectation that it would be six weeks long, and what I really appreciated was the clear timeline of what we were going to do each week.””
““We found that by going through the process, we ended up with about a 50% to 60% increase in speed in terms of our deal cycle and ability to close customers compared to before.””
““Steve and the team worked diligently, crafting policy documents, defining reviews, and conducting risk assessments all within just a few days.””
““Any questions we had were answered within 24 to 48 hours.””
““I believe we achieved the fastest possible turnaround without compromising quality.””
““We completed all of the SOC 2 Type 1 requirements within the first week. Everything that depended on both us and Cognisys was accomplished with lightning speed, essentially within a week.””
““Naturally, since we’re working with video data and enterprises, security is a major concern for them. Achieving SOC 2 compliance became essential to meet these security expectations and provide the necessary assurance to our enterprise clients.””
““They were always ready to jump on a call, tackle complicated questions, and even have a laugh, which made the work much easier.””
““The team’s experience on calls was invaluable, especially with auditors’ expectations often unclear. Their expertise guided our responses effectively.””
““Cognisys’ expertise didn’t just solve my immediate questions; it often led to deeper dives into related areas, uncovering valuable insights.””
““The understanding and respect Cognisys showed towards our business complexities, coupled with their professional approach in moving the process forward, were exemplary. It was a perfect ten-out-of-ten experience.””
““I was personally satisfied with the support. Questions were promptly answered, often within minutes or hours, and always within the relevant scope.””
““We’ve finally got patching under control,” says LGC’s Cyber Operations Manager . “We’re at 99% for Patch Tuesday. Next step is mean time to patch. Cyber Essentials mandates 14 days for critical and high vulnerabilities.””
““Something might be a 10, but not exploitable. It might be behind a firewall. Tools don’t always take that into account. Nucleus can.””
““I want to go to my infrastructure team and say ‘I need this fixing,’ not have them come back saying it’s a false positive or doesn’t affect us.””
““We’re at 99% for Patch Tuesday. Our next steps are to report on ‘mean time to patch’ as this will be beneficial for ensuring compliance with our Cyber Essentials certification.””
““Every interaction with you was very structured.””
““You were very clear about what we need to do and what we need to continue doing””
““From the beginning, Steve was very clear on everything, and seemed to be very knowledgeable””
““The pressure by Cognisys provided the right motivation to promptly address issues, conduct thorough training assessments, and refine our vocabulary, definitions, and policies.””
““If any company is selling digital products, I would absolutely recommend they get penetration testing done … it takes somebody with fresh eyes to look at it and find areas for improvement””
““[The Cognisys team] actually went over what you should look for in a penetration testing company… you want to be wary of rubber stamp companies that might just give you a signed report that didn’t really mean a whole lot””
““It really wasn’t that scary, and it’s very achievable. I feel very prepared for the next time we have to do this,””
““Cognisys demonstrated exceptional professionalism and flexibility, accommodating our schedules and executing the project swiftly.””
““Achieving the certification quickly was a major benefit, and working with Cognisys made the entire process a very positive experience.””
