It’s no longer just a good thing to have,” says Pallav Tandon, CEO, ControlMap. “Our customers are emerging as winners and fast-tracking growth by deploying our cybersecurity compliance platform and leveraging our comprehensive partner network to achieve compliance in days and weeks, which in the past took months.”

ControlMap offers comprehensive out of box compliance packages for standards such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, CMMC, and FedRAMP. However, its ability to support any cybersecurity standard across geographies and business domains are what truly sets it apart from the competition. ControlMap supports more than 25 regulations and has a unique cross-framework mapping solution to consolidate all the work.

“This last year has been a break-out year for ControlMap, with triple-digit growth and new clients and partners leveraging ControlMap’s cloud security platform week-in and week-out,” said Tandon. “With this seed round funding, we intend to continue expanding our support and development efforts of the needed cybersecurity-as-a-service solution for our client base and partner network.”

“Top Down Ventures provides the unique experience to help ControlMap build upon what it started and help effectively scale its business and service MSPs and cybersecurity channel partners around the globe,” said Tandon.

“The MSP community, including the software vendors and cybersecurity niche service providers, can all benefit from using a service like ControlMap, both in-house and for their clients,” said Chris Day, principal investor at Top Down Ventures. “We believe there is an opportunity for all organizations to improve their cybersecurity posture and ControlMap helps do just that.
