Guardian tightens the cycle from monthly to every fourteen days, adds chat to the support channel mix, and gives you a quarterly board-ready security narrative your CEO can read in one sitting. Same framework scope as Sentinel — NIST CSF and CMMC 2.0 live today; SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and GDPR by request — with twice the cycle frequency and the right level of write-up for your board pack.
What Guardian adds on top of Sentinel
- Bi-weekly cycle. The gap between “a control drifted” and “you have a deliverable that reflects the drift” gets cut in half. Two evidence-binder refreshes per month. Two risk-register updates. Two POA&M reconciliations.
- Email and chat support. Reach
[email protected]by email or chat during business hours. Same-business-day reply in writing on any question about the work product. - Quarterly board narrative. Your board pack gets a one-page security update every 90 days: current control coverage for your in-scope frameworks, top risks with owner and target date, year-over-year posture trend, and the next quarter’s remediation roadmap.
- Everything in Sentinel. Same control matrix scope (NIST CSF + CMMC 2.0 live; others by request), evidence binder, risk register, POA&M, audit-ready exhibits.
The bi-weekly rhythm
- Minute 0. Stripe processes your subscription. Welcome email + intake link.
- Minutes 5–15. Intake. Connectors. Read-only, revocable in 30 seconds.
- Hours 1–8. First scan. First deliverable bundle: control matrix mapped to your chosen framework, evidence binder, risk register, POA&M, executive summary.
- Day 14. Second cycle. Drift since the last cycle is flagged; new evidence captured; the POA&M reflects what closed and what slipped.
- Day 28. Third cycle. Card on file charged $8,500 for month two unless you cancel in Stripe’s billing portal.
- Day 90. First quarterly board narrative lands in your inbox — one page, executive-readable, ready to drop into your board pack.
Who Guardian fits
Security leaders at one-entity SaaS, fintech, or healthcare companies where a single audit cycle isn’t the whole story — you also need to brief a board or audit committee at a regular cadence. The bi-weekly rhythm is the most common “serious about it” cadence for security leaders who own the program but don’t have a full SOC team behind them.
Not on Guardian
- Multi-entity scope. Guardian covers one legal entity. If your control plane spans subsidiaries, Vanguard (up to 3) or Fortress (up to 10).
- Weekly or continuous cycle. Vanguard is weekly; Fortress and Sovereign are continuous (daily).
- Named CSM, Slack Connect, audit-defense exhibit assembly. Those start at Vanguard / Fortress.
