How long does it take to get compliant? It depends on the framework, org complexity, and level of automation:

SOC 2 Type I: ~1 month
SOC 2 Type II: 3–6 months (includes 3–12 month observation window)
ISO 27001: 3–6 months
HIPAA/PCI DSS: 2–4 months
CMMC, SOX, TISAX: 4–8+ months depending on scale

Startups using modern compliance platforms can achieve audit readiness in under 6 weeks. Larger or manual-first organizations may face extended timelines, rework, and cost overruns without clear control ownership and automation.
