We prepare the evidence. Accredited bodies issue the certification.

TruSecure is not a certification body and doesn't perform ISO 27001, SOC 2, or CMMC attestations. What it does is prepare evidence — continuous, provenance-tracked, mapped to the exact controls an auditor will test.

Why the separation matters

Certification only carries weight when the party who prepared the evidence is not the party who attests to it. TruSecure deliberately stays on the preparation side of that line. The platform's own status pages state plainly that no certification is held — the audit relationship exists precisely so that clients can pursue one through the proper channel, with an accredited body, on clean evidence.

What prepared evidence looks like

Evidence in the platform is collected continuously, not assembled in a pre-audit scramble. Every artifact carries provenance — where it came from, when it was collected, what collected it — and is mapped to the specific control and framework requirement it satisfies. When you test a control, the client's evidence view shows you the current state and its history, not a folder of exports someone swears is current.

Exceptions are visible too: where a control is partially satisfied or carries an accepted risk, that is recorded rather than papered over. An audit that starts from honest state is shorter for everyone.

How the relationship works

In practice the relationship runs in both directions: TruSecure clients pursuing certification are introduced to accredited audit partners, and audit partners who encounter clients whose evidence is a shoebox of screenshots send them toward preparation. Neither side invoices the other for the introduction.
