Daedalus Compliance Roadmap
Advancing Toward SOC 1, SOC 2, ISO/IEC standards, HIPAA, HITRUST, GDPR (Europe), NIST and FedRAMP Readiness
Daedalus is pursuing SOC 1, SOC 2, and FedRAMP readiness; attestations will follow demonstrated operating effectiveness.
Our approach is disciplined: embed governance and security into system design first, formalize controls through documented processes second, and pursue independent validation once operating effectiveness can be demonstrated over time.
Daedalus is built for security and compliance-driven teams and public-sector organizations that require clarity, accountability, and operational rigor by default.
1. Current Alignment Foundations
Daedalus is designed around control principles common across major regulatory frameworks:
- Immutable records of agent actions and human approvals, tied to scope and rationale.
- Deterministic, policy-enforced change management
- Identity attribution and approval-chain preservation
- Structured, immutable audit logging for production systems
- Evidence-backed release artifacts
- Data minimization and confidentiality-by-design
These architectural decisions reduce retrofit risk and accelerate certification readiness.
2. Roadmap Milestones
- Near Term: SOC 1 & SOC 2 control documentation finalized
- Next Stage: SOC 2 Type I and SOC 1 Type I examinations
- Following Audit Period: SOC 2 Type II and SOC 1 Type II
- Ongoing: FedRAMP control alignment and readiness documentation
3. SOC 2 Roadmap
Phase 1: Control Formalization
- Policy documentation (access control, change management, incident response, vulnerability management)
- Risk assessment and control mapping to Trust Services Criteria
- Defined system boundaries and logging standards
- Formal remediation tracking and review cadence
Phase 2: SOC 2 Type I
- Independent audit of control design
- Demonstration of governance, traceability, and normalized evidence generation
Phase 3: SOC 2 Type II
- Demonstration of operating effectiveness over time
- Continuous monitoring and remediation evidence
4. SOC 1 Roadmap
Phase 1: ICFR Control Mapping
- Documentation of change governance affecting financial systems
- Release controls, approval traceability, and validation artifacts
Phase 2: SOC 1 Type I
- Independent validation of control design
- Evidence of authorized, tested, and traceable changes
Phase 3: SOC 1 Type II
- Demonstration of consistent control operation over a defined period
5. FedRAMP Readiness Pathway
FedRAMP requires documented implementation of NIST SP 800-53 (Rev. 5) controls and continuous monitoring.
Phase 1: Documentation & Control Alignment
- System Security Plan (SSP) development
- Control implementation mapping to NIST 800-53
- Architecture, access, and logging documentation
- Vulnerability management and POA&M tracking framework
Phase 2: Readiness Assessment
- Independent gap assessment
- Remediation of identified control gaps
- Formalized continuous monitoring procedures
Phase 3: Authorization Engagement
- Agency sponsorship pursuit
- Authorization package preparation
- Ongoing monitoring and annual assessment support
Daedalus continues to mature its governance, documentation, and monitoring posture so that formal certifications reflect a system engineered for regulated environments — not retrofitted to satisfy minimum requirements.
Timelines may adjust based on audit scheduling and assessment cycles.
