Riscosity’s CEO, a security veteran, sought an Agentic AI-powered, automated compliance solution
Riscosity sells its services to CIOs, CISOs and risk officers of its corporate customers who insist on dealing with vendors who are fully compliant. “Really, it’s a matter of demonstrating maturity by having established security processes and being able to prove it”, said Anirban. “So, it was a priority for us to achieve SOC 2 compliance quickly, without the time-wasters of taking endless screenshots and tracking everything in spreadsheets.”
“I am a security veteran, so I know how much time the compliance process can take. I did not want to have to go down the old-style compliance path of collecting evidence manually – we are a scrappy startup team. So we chose Akitra® because they could save us time by meticulously and automatically taking care of so many of the critical tasks of compliance for us.”

Co-founder and CEO, Riscosity
Riscosity selected Akitra Andromeda® compliance automation platform after evaluating alternatives, having been impressed by the Akitra® team and by positive recommendations from current Akitra® customers.
The implementation went very smoothly. “We were impressed by the nimbleness and responsiveness of Akitra®’s support team, who guided us at every step. They were really a good match for our company’s compliance needs.”
Anirban added that he was pleasantly surprised to find out the number of third-party integrations supported by the Akitra® platform for monitoring and evidence collection. “We used Akitra® for services like AWS and GitHub, but it is reassuring to know that Akitra® can support essentially any third-party cloud service we care to use now or in the future.”
Riscosity is now SOC 2 compliant, which has accelerated the sales process with key prospects by helping to build a strong foundation of trust with them.
Riscosity is also looking forward to taking advantage of the multi-framework support provided by Akitra Andromeda®. As the company grows and expands into new markets, Riscosity will use Akitra®’s capabilities to become compliant with other frameworks such as ISO 27001 and those required for selling to government agencies.
