Tidal Control incident
Comparing compliance tools: why a false timeline is costly
Resolved on June 9, 2026.
Promises of ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certification in thirty days are a red flag because both standards require a demonstrably working management system, not just documentation. A SOC 2 Type 2 report cannot comply with the standard without an observation period of at least three months, and a small organisation pursuing ISO 27001 needs a minimum of three months working in a focused way. Tidal Control works exclusively with independent, accredited certification bodies and includes implementation support, automated evidence collection, and EU hosting in its platform.
