By combining AI-powered compliance automation with personalized expert guidance, Akitra helped
Amanah Tech streamline its first SOC 2 journey, strengthen customer trust, and remove a key barrier to enterprise sales.
Operating in the highly security-sensitive data center industry, Amanah Tech understood that enterprise customers increasingly expected independent security certifications from their infrastructure providers. To meet these expectations and strengthen its competitive position, the company partnered with Akitra to achieve SOC 2 Type II through a streamlined, AI-powered compliance process.
After evaluating multiple compliance automation platforms, Amanah Tech selected Akitra Andromeda®, Akitra’s AI-native compliance automation platform, for its personalized approach, intuitive user experience, and responsive support. Within approximately four months, Amanah Tech successfully completed its SOC 2 Type II attestation, strengthening its security posture and improving its ability to compete for security-conscious customers.
Before pursuing SOC 2 Type II, Amanah Tech faced several business and compliance challenges:
Enterprise Customer Expectations: Prospective enterprise customers increasingly required SOC 2 Type II certification before engaging with Amanah Tech.
Lost Business Opportunities: The sales team missed potential deals because the company could not demonstrate its security and compliance posture.
First Compliance Journey: As Amanah Tech’s first SOC 2 initiative, the team needed expert guidance to navigate the certification process with confidence.
Need for a Trusted Partner: Amanah Tech sought a compliance partner that could simplify a complex audit while providing personalized, responsive support throughout the engagement.
We evaluated multiple SOC 2 compliance providers, but Akitra clearly stood apart. They significantly reduced our time to certification, lowered the overall cost, and minimized the internal resources we needed to dedicate to the project. The entire process was smooth, well-managed, and delivered exactly what we set out to achieve. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome.
