A level above Express Comply
Managed Comply is a significant level above Express Comply: a full security and compliance operating platform with a virtual CISO, not a single-framework prep program. If you need one framework prepared and maintained at a flat rate, Express Comply is the smaller program; Managed Comply is for companies that want security and compliance operated, led, and reported on continuously.

In plain terms
Managed Comply costs $5,000 per month for companies with 1–100 employees, $12,000 per month for companies with 101–200 employees, and $15,000 per month for companies with 201–350 employees; companies with 351 or more employees receive a custom quote. Every tier includes a full virtual CISO and up to three standard frameworks. Dedicated, exclusively-assigned full-time engineers can be added from $15,000 per month, advanced frameworks like FedRAMP, CMMC, and HITRUST are quoted at scoping, and Agency can manage your existing security and compliance employees under the same program.
Agency is a master reseller of Vanta and Drata, has served 1,000+ companies, is rated 4.9/5 on G2, and operates a U.S.-based team.
The full virtual CISO
Every Managed Comply tier includes a complete virtual CISO — not advisory hours. The vCISO owns security program leadership, framework strategy, audit readiness, vendor and customer security reviews, and board-level reporting. When your customers, auditors, or investors ask who runs security, there is a named answer with an operating program behind it.
Frameworks: three standard, advanced by quote
Up to three standard frameworks are included in every tier — SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, and similar — run concurrently under one program, with cross-framework mapping so work done once counts everywhere it can.
Advanced frameworks — FedRAMP, CMMC, HITRUST — are added by scoped quote, because their boundaries, assessors, and timelines vary too much for a flat number to be honest. See FedRAMP with Agency for how those engagements run.
We can run your existing team
Agency can manage your existing security and compliance employees under the Managed Comply vCISO — your people, Agency’s leadership and program structure, included in scoping rather than billed as an add-on. Companies rarely find this capability elsewhere: it means hiring one platform instead of choosing between “outsource everything” and “build a department.”
Dedicated full-time engineers
When the program needs full-time hands — a FedRAMP push, a heavy remediation quarter, an enterprise security review season — dedicated, exclusively-assigned, forward-deployed engineers are added from $15,000 per month per engineer. They work only on your environment for the duration.
What’s included — and what’s priced separately
Scope— the full managed compliance and security platform: program operation, monitoring, evidence, remediation coordination, and audit management, sized to your headcount tier.
Deliverables— a complete virtual CISO, up to three standard frameworks run concurrently, security reviews, and board-level reporting.
Support— a named Agency team operating continuously, plus vCISO availability for customer, vendor, and diligence conversations.
Timeline coverage— continuous monthly operation, through every audit window and observation period while the engagement runs.
Platform compatibility— runs on your GRC platform of choice; Vanta and Drata preferred and available through Agency at negotiated partner pricing.

Who this is for
How vCISO pricing usually works — and why this page has numbers
Virtual CISO pricing across the market comes in four shapes: hourly consulting, a monthly retainer, project-based work, and leadership bundled with execution. Scope drives cost far more than the model does, which is why most providers quote instead of publish.
Managed Comply publishes anyway, because the scope is standardized: a full vCISO plus up to three standard frameworks, operated. What moves a quote off the published tiers is what you would expect — headcount above 350, advanced frameworks, dedicated engineers, or absorbing an existing internal team into the program.
Conditions
Published tiers are standard published pricing through Agency for the stated headcount bands and up-to-three standard frameworks; final scope and price are confirmed in your Order Form/SOW, and per the published program terms, a fully executed MSA and Order Form/SOW are required before any benefit under the Program can be claimed. Managing your existing security and compliance employees under the vCISO is included in scoping.
Worked examples
Illustrative example, not a quote
Illustrative example, not a quote — 80-person company, SOC 2 + ISO 27001 + GDPR: $5,000 per month — $60,000 per year — for the operated program, full virtual CISO included, all three frameworks inside the tier.
Illustrative example, not a quote — 150-person company: $12,000 per month for the 101–200 employee tier — virtual CISO, up to three standard frameworks, and continuous operation.
Illustrative example, not a quote — 250-person company adding one dedicated engineer: $15,000 per month for the 201–350 tier + $15,000 per month for the exclusively-assigned engineer = $30,000 per month total.
How this compares
The alternatives are a full-time CISO hire or a fractional CISO stitched to a separate compliance vendor. A full-time CISO costs a senior-executive salary plus benefits and equity — and still needs tooling and a team to operate anything. A fractional CISO plus a separate compliance vendor means two contracts, two roadmaps, and a seam down the middle of your program exactly where auditors look.
Managed Comply is one platform: leadership, operation, and up to three frameworks from $5,000 per month — a fraction of the fully loaded cost of one senior security hire, with the execution layer already attached.
