A BETTER WAY TO NAVIGATE MULTI-FRAMEWORK COMPLIANCE
Organizations working toward SOC 2, ISO 27001/27701, HITRUST, PCI DSS, and other frameworks often face the same challenge: every audit feels like a brand-new project. Evidence is collected multiple times. Teams repeat the same conversations. And each engagement comes with its own request list, timeline, and preparation cycle.
The Audit Once, Report Many methodology is designed to streamline the entire experience by consolidating the overlapping requirements across frameworks and conducting a single, comprehensive audit that supports all the needed reports. We gather evidence once, validate controls once, and then map the results into each relevant framework for delivery.
The result? A more efficient, predictable, and less disruptive audit experience.
BUILDING EFFICIENCY INTO PROJECT MANAGEMENT
1. A Single Client Experience, No Framework Guesswork
Rather than feeling like separate SOC 2, ISO, or HITRUST engagements, clients experience one aligned audit cycle. We collect evidence holistically, and clients don’t need to track which requirement belongs to which framework. This reduces meeting fatigue and makes timelines easier to manage.
2. One Fully Cross-Trained Audit Team
Our auditors are trained across the frameworks we assess, supported by internal Advanced Centers of Excellence that reinforce consistency and expertise. This allows our unified team to handle preparation, fieldwork, and reporting to eliminate handoffs and improve efficiency.
3. A Streamlined Process for Our Ecosystem Allies
vCISOs, GRC platforms, MSPs, and external advisors appreciate this approach because it reduces redundant requests and provides a clearer, more predictable audit rhythm for the organizations they support.
4. Clearer Insights Across the Entire Compliance Landscape
By seeing all in-scope frameworks at once, we gain a comprehensive view of the client’s compliance posture. This often leads to recommendations for simplifying scope, aligning documentation, or reducing unnecessary framework overlap, all of which saves time and money while improving audit readiness long-term.
5. Lower Fees Driven by Real Efficiency
Because the work is performed once instead of multiple times, clients benefit from meaningful time savings and lower overall assessment fees where unified audit efficiencies can be applied. This evolution allows assessment firms to deliver deeper technical insights and more efficient review cycles, while helping CSPs maintain stronger, real-time security postures. For organizations preparing for FedRAMP under 20x, working with firms experienced in automation-supported assessment processes will be essential to effectively navigating the new landscape.
WHY THIS MATTERS TODAY
More organizations are pursuing multiple compliance frameworks as customer requirements, vendor due diligence, and regulatory expectations expand. At the same time, teams are stretched thin, balancing internal security priorities with increasing audit demands.
As multi-framework compliance becomes the norm rather than the exception, unified audit models like Audit Once, Report Many give organizations a practical way to stay efficient while maintaining a strong compliance posture.
By reducing redundancy and providing a smoother, more integrated client experience, 360 Advanced helps organizations focus on what matters most: running their business with confidence in their security and compliance readiness.
Frameworks Commonly Supported in a Unified Audit
Typical Multi-Framework Combinations
SOC 2 + ISO 27001
SOC 2 + ISO 27001 + ISO 27701
SOC 2 + HITRUST
SOC 2 + PCI DSS
ISO 27001 + ISO 42001 (AI)
SOC 2 + CMMC (DIB vendors)
HITRUST + Privacy frameworks (NIST 800-53, ISO 27701)
Why Combine Them?
Most frameworks share 50–80% control overlap, making unified audits faster and more efficient.
