Three practices, one file of evidence

Engage one practice or combine them. A SOC 2 programme, a cloud migration and a Pillar Two assessment all depend on the same thing: records you can trust.

  1. Cloud & DevOps

    Landing zones, migrations, infrastructure as code and the pipelines that ship it, on whichever cloud you run.

    • Landing zones and account structure
    • Migration and modernisation
    • Infrastructure as code
    • CI/CD and release engineering
  2. Security & compliance

    SOC 2, ISO 27001 and regional frameworks, with the controls built into your platform rather than bolted on before the audit.

    • SOC 2 readiness
    • ISO/IEC 27001
    • Regional frameworks
    • Cloud security posture
  3. Tax

    Zakat, corporate and international tax, Pillar Two and tax due diligence for groups operating in and through the Gulf.

    • Zakat and corporate income tax
    • Pillar Two
    • International tax and structuring
    • Withholding tax and transfer pricing

Whichever cloud you run on

We are not resellers and have no platform to push. We work in the cloud you already use, or help you choose one based on where your data must live and what your team can operate.

  • Landing zones and account structure, built in code
  • Migrations between clouds, or out of the data centre
  • One set of security controls across every provider
  • Cost and data-residency reviews before you commit
  • AWS
  • Microsoft Azure
  • Google Cloud
  • Oracle Cloud

How an engagement runs

  1. Assess

    We read your environment, filings and contracts, then tell you plainly where the exposure is and what it would take to close it.

  2. Build

    Our engineers and advisers fix what we found: infrastructure in code, controls in the pipeline, computations with their workings attached.

  3. Evidence

    Every change and every position is documented so you can hand it to an auditor, a regulator or a buyer without a scramble.

  4. Run

    Stay on with us for operations, compliance cycles and filing seasons, or take the handover and run it yourself.

Tell us what is due, and when.

An audit window, a filing deadline, a migration date or a deal signing. We will come back to you with whether we can help and what it would involve.
