WHAT AUDITORS EVALUATE
Most compliance frameworks check these 4 areas. NordLayer delivers them all.
Whether you’re preparing for SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, NIS2, PCI-DSS, or GDPR, auditors often ask the same 4 questions. Here’s how NordLayer helps you answer them.
Access Control
Who can access what, and where’s the proof?
Sync your identity provider (Okta, Entra ID, Google, OneLogin, or JumpCloud) and enforce MFA at the network layer. SCIM handles provisioning automatically, so when someone joins or leaves, access updates with them. From there, segment by role and lock resources down to the user level with Cloud Firewall.
Encryption & Threat Prevention
How do you protect data and block threats?
Every connection is encrypted via NordLynx (AES-256/ChaCha20), and the Always On VPN feature ensures no session goes unencrypted. DNS Filtering blocks harmful or non-compliant websites by category, Web Protection stops malicious domains, and Download Protection scans files before they land.
Visibility & Audit Trails
What happened, when, where, and by whom?
Every session is logged with full details: user, device, timestamp, gateway. Device Posture Monitoring tracks OS version, firewall status, and disk encryption across your fleet. Everything feeds into a centralized dashboard, and when your assessor asks for evidence, the logs export in the format they need.
Device Trust & Compliance
Which devices can connect, and how are they qualified?
Before a device connects, NordLayer checks the OS version, firewall status, and disk encryption. If it doesn’t meet your policy, it’s blocked automatically. Always On VPN keeps every session encrypted, regardless of the network, and jailbreak detection catches compromised devices before they reach your resources.
COMPLIANCE-READY PLANS
Controls that scale with your team, starting at $8/user/month
All plans include encrypted access, MFA, and SSO. Core adds dedicated IPs and Device Posture Monitoring. Premium unlocks more granular Network Segmentation, and the full set of controls that auditors expect. No surprise costs. No lock-in.
COMPLIANCE TRIGGERS
4 situations that bring companies to this page. Which one is yours?
“A client asked for proof of our security controls.”
Enterprise clients and partners increasingly require security documentation before signing. SOC 2 reports, ISO 27001 certificates, completed security questionnaires. NordLayer gives you implemented controls you can point to, not just a policy document.
Common in:
- IT services
- SaaS
- Business consulting
“We had an incident. Now, leadership wants answers.”
A compromised account. An unauthorized access attempt. A near miss. Whatever happened, the next question is, “What controls do we have?” NordLayer gives you access control, device trust, and activity logging, so the answer is a dashboard, not silence.
Common in:
- Finance
- Health services
- Any company post-breach
“Our SOC 2/ISO 27001 audit is approaching.”
You know what the framework requires. You need a platform that covers access control, encryption, device posture, and audit trails without a 6-month implementation. NordLayer deploys in days and maps directly to the controls your assessor will evaluate.
Common in:
- SaaS
- Finance
- Companies selling to enterprises
“We’re growing fast, and our security is still informal.”
Shared passwords, a consumer VPN, manual access management. At 50+ employees, informal security becomes a liability. NordLayer takes you from informal to auditable before the first auditor arrives.
Common in:
- Startups scaling to 50–150 employees
- Companies formalizing remote work
