Managing compliance for a single framework is already too difficult—doing it for three at once can be totally overbearing. Companies following SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA principles usually have problems with shared controls, redundant proof gathering and the hard task of document flow being updated. Drata removes these problems by integrating compliance processes into a fully automated platform, thus allowing teams to grow with no restrictions and also to be in possession of good security methods without incurring extra costs.

Introduction

Grasping the Difficulties of Multi-Framework Compliance

In general, SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA are on the same page when it comes to the main objectives: data protection, security control application, and operational integrity maintenance. Nevertheless, it is still a fact that each one of them has a different set of terms, structure, and reporting requirements.

• First of all, SOC 2 is all about Trust Services Criteria like security, availability, and confidentiality.
• On the other hand, ISO 27001 deals with the development of a certified Information Security Management System (ISMS).
• Last but not least, HIPAA provides the legal framework for the protection of health information (PHI) in a regulated manner.

The lack of a common compliance platform leads to many teams having to do the same work three times that is, creating the same policies over again, having separate places for evidence, and conducting audits for controls that are very similar, but still, they are not done once.

How Drata Streamlines Multi-Framework Compliance

Drata makes the whole process much easier by eliminating the need for human intervention through its automated mapping of overlapping controls across the different frameworks. To cite one instance, access management, encryption, vulnerability scanning, and secure development policies are areas where all three frameworks usually coexist. Rather than producing distinct documents and proving compliance for each control separately, with just one effort, Drata allows you to comply with numerous controls at once.

Key Features That Allow Multi-Framework Compliance:

• Unified Control Mapping

With Drata’s control library, the requirements of SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA are automatically aligned. If your organization uploads evidence or meets a control once—like enabling MFA or implementing logging—it is counted for all the applicable frameworks. This process not only greatly reduces the amount of work done but also clarifies for the teams where the gaps still exist.

• Continuous Automated Monitoring

Drata does not let anyone rush through their preparations for the audit; instead, it keeps a strict watch of cloud infrastructure, identity providers, repositories, and security tools all the time. If any part of the process strays away from compliance, the team will be notified through real-time alerts so that they can fix the problem before it affects the certification processes of more than one framework.

•  Evidence Collection Without Manual Work

Drata is the one that takes care of the audit evidence by itself; it draws logs, configurations, screenshots, and security data from your systems that are connected. The engineers will not have to hunt down the artifacts for three different audit streams anymore—everything will be stored, tagged, and mapped in one central place.

• Policy Management That Gets Reduced to Essentials

The customizable policy templates that Drata supplies are designed in compliance with the requirements of the three frameworks. The documentation of the entire compliance program is kept up to date with each standard through the propagation of updates.

• Reports for Auditor Ready

Exporting audit-ready documentation for SOC 2, ISO 27001, or HIPAA with Drata just needs one click. Instead of spending weeks preparing reports manually, teams deliver to auditors organized and consistent evidence packages directly.

The Outcome: Quicker Certifications, More Secure Systems

Through the unification of compliance operations, the company, Drata, eliminates the barrier between the engineering, security, and compliance teams. Organizations not only get the accreditations sooner, but also keep their continuous readiness and enhance their security posture-all this with the saving of hundreds of hours of manual work.

Drata, whether you’re a startup in the scaling stage or an enterprise-level requirements manager, provides you with the insight and automation necessary to handle SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA compliance together—without the complexity.
