Compliance automation
Audit-ready security, checked every hour.
Wardline connects to the tools you already run, tests 81 common controls against SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, PCI DSS and NIST CSF, and keeps the evidence your auditor will ask for.
Wardline prepares you for the audit. Your SOC 2 report comes from a licensed CPA firm and your ISO 27001 certificate from an accredited certification body.

How it works
Connect, monitor, fix, audit. Then keep going.
Compliance isn't a project with a finish line. The same tests that get you ready for a first audit keep running afterwards, so the second year is a normal week, not a scramble.
01
Connect
Link your cloud accounts, identity provider, HR system, code host and device management with read-only access. Most teams are connected in an afternoon.
02
Monitor
Wardline tests every mapped control each hour and records the result with a timestamp, so evidence builds up while you work.
03
Fix
A failing test opens a ticket for the right owner, with the setting to change and the deadline from your own policy.
04
Audit
Give your auditor a read-only workspace with every control, test and document in one place. They do the audit; you skip the screenshot hunt.
Frameworks
One control library. Six frameworks.
Most security controls serve more than one framework. Wardline maps each control once, so the work you do for SOC 2 counts toward ISO 27001, HIPAA and the rest.
SOC 2
United States, recognized worldwide
The report most US buyers ask for. Type I looks at control design on one date; Type II tests how controls operated over an observation period of usually 3 to 12 months.
