Get a SOC 2 Type 2 audit and maintain an InfoSec program without security expertise
Fable was looking to level-up their security posture to meet and exceed the security needs of their Fortune 500 customers.
Naturally, there were concerns the company wouldn’t have the bandwidth or resources to commit to a full SOC 2 project. They needed a tool that would integrate with the team and reduce lift.
A company that sells to enterprise companies, Fable was also overwhelmed by security questionnaires.
According to Abid Virani, the COO at Fable: "Every time we had to fill out a new security questionnaire, it felt like we were starting from scratch."
The company wanted to increase efficiency during the tech due diligence process, so they could spend more time building relationships and less time processing paperwork.
A single source of truth for information security
Fable now has what Virano calls a single source of truth for all their information security program documentation.
They can easily manage policies, from assigning policy reviewers to versioning. Instant reminders enable them to stay on top of all their security and compliance tasks, which means they can confidently share their program with customers when needed.
By automating security questionnaires and relying on the platform to surface the right answers, Fable’s account executives can cultivate stronger relationships with customers, pursue more opportunities, and increase sales output.
