Compliance Reporting From Existing Security Findings

Customer Type: MSSP Managing Multiple Client Environments

Primary Framework(s): SOC 2

Workflow Type: Findings → SOC 2 Control Mapping

Customer Profile

  • MSSP delivering EDR, vulnerability management, and cloud monitoring
  • Clients often request SOC 2 support after security services are in place
  • Needs to translate technical findings into compliance outcomes

The Challenge

  • Security tools generated findings but not compliance context
  • Clients asked which findings impacted SOC 2 controls
  • Manual mapping across frameworks was impossible at scale
  • MSSP needed compliance differentiation to justify premium pricing

How They Used CMAI

  • Aggregated findings from security tools (SIEM, EDR, vuln scanners)
  • Normalized into JSON/OCSF-style payloads
  • Sent findings into CMAI API
  • Returned SOC 2 control mappings per finding
  • Produced compliance dashboards showing control coverage and violations

Implementation Pattern

SIEM + Scanner Findings → CMAI API → SOC 2 Tags → Client Dashboard + Audit Reporting

Results Delivered

  • Compliance Differentiation without changing tool stack
  • Faster Time-to-SOC2 for existing security customers
  • New Upsell Motion: compliance-as-a-service

Why This Was a Fit

They already had the security data—they just needed a mapping layer to translate findings into audit-aligned compliance value.

Drop-In Compliance Annotation (Universal Pattern)

CMAI is deployed as a stateless API inside existing pipelines to automatically tag findings, policies, and questionnaires with structured control mappings—without requiring platform migration or centralized data storage.
