Can we get SOC 2 and ISO 27001 at the same time?

Yes — and it is the most cost-efficient approach for Pune Auto Tech and FinTech companies that need both. SOC 2 and ISO 27001 share significant control overlap, so CyberSapiens delivers both certifications in a single integrated engagement — saving time, cost, and internal effort compared to running them separately. Global OEM procurement teams in particular require both certifications simultaneously.

What cloud infrastructure is supported for Pune companies?

CyberSapiens supports all major cloud environments used by Pune's technology sector — AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud (GCP), and Microsoft 365.

Is SOC 2 mandatory for Indian companies selling to the US?

SOC 2 is not a legal requirement — but it is effectively mandatory for Pune companies selling SaaS, FinTech, or data services to US enterprise clients, Fortune 500 companies, US banks, healthcare organisations, and global investors. Most US procurement teams require a valid SOC 2 report before signing contracts involving access to customer data. Without it, deals are delayed, declined, or subject to lengthy security questionnaire processes.
