Proof, not promises
White Star Software
Operating the TechOps and SecOps layer behind enterprise growth
The situation
As White Star Software’s product ProTop moved deeper into financial services and healthcare, enterprise buyers began applying production-vendor expectations. A 200 question audit took eight months to close. Hiring a CISO ran $250K to $350K loaded; a full SOC 2 program ran roughly $140K per year and still would not stop the questionnaires. They needed an operator instead.
What we did
Cloud Sentry came in across all three tiers: managed operations, project work, and embedded CISO leadership. We migrated AWS into an organization owned by White Star, with Savings Plans intact, deployed GuardDuty across five regions, cleaned up stale IAM access, authored SOC 2 aligned policies, and built a repeatable enterprise security questionnaire response framework. All coordinated cleanly with their existing infrastructure partner.
The outcome
Two enterprise security cycles processed on the new framework instead of an eight-month one-off effort. SOC 2 aligned operating posture and 24x7 monitoring without the certification overhead. Quarterly access reviews and CISO-level reporting in place. Estimated cost avoided: roughly $140K per year in SOC 2 program overhead and $250K to $350K loaded annually for an in-house CISO.

Proof, not promises
The same proof, ready whenever a buyer asks.
The repeatable questionnaire turnaround in this story is not a one-off. It is how the platform works for every customer: the evidence that proves your security lives in one place, and you hand a buyer a scoped, time-bounded view through the Evidence Vault the moment they ask.
