When founders reach out

Most Nulon engagements start at one of three moments.

01

A big deal is stalling on security

A customer has sent a security questionnaire and wants SOC 2 or ISO 27001 before they will sign, and no one inside owns the answer.

02

The board wants someone accountable

Security has become a leadership question, and a full-time CISO hire is months and a six-figure salary away.

03

A raise is in diligence

Investors are asking for policies and evidence, and the data room needs answers that stand up to scrutiny.

What Nulon does

Four ways in, matched to where you are.

Policy & foundation build

For companies with no security function yet. Nulon puts the policies and structure in place, then hands them over.

Security awareness training

Practical training so your team stops being the easiest way in.

Fractional CISO (virtual CISO)

Ongoing senior security leadership, part-time, guiding your security, privacy and compliance, from SOC 2 and ISO 27001 readiness onward.

Why Nulon

Senior judgement, right-sized for your stage.

✓

Senior-led, start to finish

Every engagement is run by a CISM and CISA certified lead with more than fourteen years in security and compliance, not handed to a junior analyst.

✓

Built to hold up in year two

A security program you can actually run and defend, not a one-time checkbox for an audit.

✓

Independent, never a reseller

Nulon works alongside Vanta, Drata and whatever you already use. You get independent judgement, not software anyone is paid to sell.

✓

Scaled to where you are

A 20-person startup and a 150-person scale-up have different risks, so they get different programs.

✓

Quick to a plan

A written plan in about ten working days, shaped around your deal or diligence deadline.

✓

Light on your systems

Much of the work runs from a view-only evidence pack, so your systems, code and customer data stay untouched.

Who Nulon works with

We know what your buyers will ask.

Growing Canadian companies that hold sensitive data and sell to demanding buyers, teams that have outgrown handling security on the side but are not ready for a full-time Chief Information Security Officer.

Canadian fintech Health technology B2B software

Selling into the US, or operating across borders? Nulon also covers HIPAA, and Nigeria's NDPA for teams with African operations, so one set of policies can carry you across markets.

What this looks like in practice

A sense of the work.

When a fintech is preparing for its first enterprise review

Nulon runs a posture assessment, builds the missing policies, and supports the team through the customer's security questionnaire, so the deal keeps moving.

When a health-tech company faces heavier privacy reviews

Nulon sets a prioritised roadmap and provides part-time security leadership to work through it, at a pace the team can carry.

FAQ

Questions we get asked most.

Do I really need a full-time CISO?

Usually not yet. Most growing companies need senior security judgement and the right foundations, not a full-time hire. That is exactly what a fractional arrangement gives you, at a fraction of the cost.

How fast can you get us ready for SOC 2 or ISO 27001?

It depends on your starting point, but the first step, a posture assessment and written plan, takes about ten working days, and the readiness work is scoped to your deal or diligence deadline rather than an open-ended timeline.

Which frameworks do you cover?

SOC 2, ISO 27001, and Canadian privacy law including PIPEDA, PHIPA and Alberta's Health Information Act. For cross-border teams, HIPAA for the US and Nigeria's NDPA as well.

Do you need access to our systems?

Often not. A lot of the work runs from a view-only evidence pack and written answers, which keeps your systems, code and customer data untouched.

How does pricing work?

Most engagements start with a fixed-fee assessment, with no long-term commitment, and the rest is scoped from what it finds. Book a short call for a clear number.
