Why this works
Built around the reality of small business.
Whether you are chasing your first enterprise deal, responding to a procurement team or preparing for certification, Cyber Veda gives you the structure and senior guidance to move without overbuilding.
Commercial outcomes first
We anchor the work to the deal, tender, audit or customer requirement that is creating pressure for the business.
Right-sized roadmap
We separate what is essential now from what can mature later, so compliance improves without swallowing your team.
Evidence that unlocks deals
We turn security work into buyer-ready answers, policies, reports and evidence that support procurement conversations.
Who we help
For teams bidding above their weight.
Startups and SMEs often need enterprise-grade trust signals before they have enterprise-grade teams. We keep the approach pragmatic while still holding the line on evidence, risk and audit expectations.

Common questions
Start with the gap, not the guesswork.
Where should we start?
We work with you to understand which framework you actually need, what it means for your current business and what a realistic timeframe looks like. No unrealistic promises, just a clear path and honest expectations.
We are small and stretched. Can this still work?
Yes. The point is to right-size the work. We focus on the controls, evidence and decisions that matter most now, then sequence the rest so your team is not buried in compliance busywork. On average, we aim to keep your input to around two hours per week while we handle the heavy lifting.
Can you help us prepare for government tenders?
Yes. We help interpret security and compliance requirements, identify gaps, prepare evidence, strengthen policies and turn technical controls into clear responses.
Can you help with SOC 2 or ISO 27001?
Yes. We support readiness, evidence collection, internal audit, remediation planning and coordination with external auditors.
Do you do one-off projects or ongoing support?
Both. We can deliver a focused assessment, penetration test or internal audit, or act as an ongoing vCISO and compliance partner.
Is VedaLink required?
No. VedaLink is available when a client needs a live evidence and audit workflow layer. The consulting engagement can also work with your existing tools and compliance platforms, including Drata, Vanta and similar systems.
