How MSSPs Can Answer Security Questionnaires Faster
Build one approved answer library, back it with a current SOC 2 report or ISO 27001 certificate, and answer most questions by pointing to it. Questionnaires then take days, not weeks.
Start from proof, not prose
Many questionnaire items are already answered in a SOC 2 report. Attaching the report under NDA closes those items without writing new text.
Keep a library of approved answers
- One owner who approves every answer
- Each answer points to a policy or control ID
- A review date on every answer, checked every 6 months
Do not over-share
Answer what was asked. Share network diagrams and pen test details only under NDA and only when the deal needs them.
Quick answers
With an answer library and a current SOC 2 report, most questionnaires take 2 to 5 business days instead of several weeks.
Yes. Questionnaire support is part of the fixed monthly price, which starts at $1,195 a month and includes the CPA audit.
