The security evidence pack for enterprise deals

Enterprise procurement does not take your word for it. Before they sign, they ask for evidence: a security posture report, your certifications, your policies, and something dated they can file. Assembling that pack is what stalls deals for weeks. This is what belongs in it, and the one part you can generate in 60 seconds instead of chasing it.

What goes in a security evidence pack

  1. 1

    External posture report

    A dated scan of what attackers and auditors see from outside: TLS, certificates, security headers, DMARC, DNSSEC, exposed services. This is the part you can generate today, mapped to NIS2 Article 21 and ISO 27001 Annex A so it reads in control language.

  2. 2

    Certifications where you have them

    SOC 2, ISO 27001, or sector attestations. Buyers ask for these but do not always require them from smaller vendors. The scan report fills the gap when you do not yet hold a certificate.

  3. 3

    Policies and internal controls

    Access reviews, incident response, employee training, supplier management. This is your own documentation. The evidence pack references it; the scan does not produce it.

  4. 4

    A dated attestation and re-scan history

    Procurement trusts timestamps. A dated attestation plus a history of re-scans shows current state and progress over time, which is what a renewal or annual review wants to see.

The €39 Audit Pack is the ready-made external-posture evidence

Instead of assembling the external-posture section by hand, the Audit Pack gives you the control-mapped PDF, 90 days of re-scans, and a dated attestation in one purchase. Drop it straight into the evidence pack, the DDQ, or the data room. One-time, no subscription.

Frequently asked questions

What is a security evidence pack?

It is the bundle of proof a SaaS vendor hands an enterprise buyer to clear the security review: a posture report or scan, certifications where held, policy documentation, and a dated attestation. The goal is to answer the buyer security questions with verifiable artifacts rather than assertions, so the deal moves to signature.

How do I build a security evidence pack fast?

Generate the external-posture part first, because it is the most requested and the most automatable. Run a scan, fix the flagged issues, and export the dated control-mapped PDF. Then attach your policy docs and any certifications. The part that used to take a week, gathering external evidence, is done in minutes, and the rest is documents you already have.

Do enterprise buyers accept a scan report as evidence?

For the external-posture section, yes. A dated third-party scan report mapped to NIS2 Article 21 and ISO 27001 Annex A is stronger than a self-asserted answer because it shows the real configuration with a timestamp. Pair it with your internal-policy documents for the rows a scan cannot cover.

How is the Audit Pack different from a free scan?

The free scan shows your grade and findings on screen. The €39 Audit Pack adds the downloadable control-mapped PDF, 90 days of re-scans, and a dated attestation, which are the exact artifacts an evidence pack needs. If you are assembling a pack for a deal, the one-time Audit Pack is the fit.
