Security & Regulatory Compliance Services
Enterprise security and regulatory compliance are procurement gates before they are engineering goals. ERPStack builds custom security and compliance platforms that protect PostgreSQL data, audit every user interaction, and automate the reporting an assessor asks for. Off-the-shelf security packages rarely integrate cleanly with a legacy schema, which leaves blind spots exactly where the audit looks. Our security engineering services build tools and dashboards mapped to the frameworks you are assessed under (SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, GDPR, PCI DSS, and ISO 27001). Built on Next.js, PostgreSQL, and Drizzle ORM with strict TypeScript, we deploy encrypted schema partitions, Web Application Firewall policies, RBAC on 100% of routes, and hash-chained audit trails. You own the monitoring logs, the Terraform, and the AWS account they run in.

Quick Answer
In short: Security & Regulatory Compliance Services by ERPStack delivers hardened security systems built for SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and GDPR compliance with AES-256 data encryption, identity access management, and immutable audit logging, deployed to your cloud in 6 to 12 weeks.
Production Architecture Blueprint
The structured data-flow roadmap behind every security & regulatory compliance services engagement, delivered with 100% code ownership — hover over node segments to explore integration controls.
Systems Guarantees
Edge Routing Boundary
Every security & regulatory compliance services build pre-renders output at global edge runtimes. This decoupled model ensures sub-50ms user speeds.
Isolated Schema Enclaves
Databases for every security & regulatory compliance services engagement reside in dedicated VPC schemas, with Row-Level Security constraints securing record lookups.
Cryptographic Integrity
Ledger writes in each security & regulatory compliance services deployment map hashes to immutable tables — a secure event trail for regulatory reviews.
Key Features & Capabilities
pgcrypto column-level ePHI/PII encryption in Postgres
Arcjet Web Application Firewall threat protection
Cryptographically hash-linked immutable audit logs
Granular Identity Access Management (IAM/RBAC)
Automated Semgrep and OWASP security audits
Edge session validation and MFA middleware layers
How It Works — Timeline & Milestones
Compliance Audit & Asset Discovery
We audit your application databases, configurations, and API endpoints, identifying security gaps against compliance frameworks.
Database Partitioning & Encrypted Fields
We configure transparent column encryption (pgcrypto) for fields containing PII or ePHI, storing data in isolated schemas.
Next.js Middleware & Access Control
We write secure Next.js middleware with multi-factor authentication (MFA) and strict role-based access rules to guard API routes.
Tamper-Evident Audit Trails
We build database-level triggers to write access logs to cryptographically linked tables, preventing undetected audit changes.
WAF Configuration & Penetration Audit
We deploy Web Application Firewalls (Arcjet), run automated penetration tests, verify compliance, and launch the monitoring dashboard.
Transparent Fixed-Price Tiers
Compliance Shield Setup
Database column encryption, role-based access control (RBAC), basic audit logging, and secure security headers.
Security Monitoring Center
Automated compliance dashboards, real-time threat alerts, cryptographic audit verification, and container scanning.
Global Compliance Core
Isolated database structures across countries, automated disaster recovery testing, and controls documented against the HITRUST CSF for your assessor.
Off-the-Shelf vs Custom-Built: Cost & Control Compared
An architectural breakdown of the structural, cost, and licensing differences.
| Telemetry Metric | ERPStack Custom Build | Legacy SaaS Competitors |
|---|---|---|
| Audit log integrity | Append-only PostgreSQL tables with UPDATE and DELETE revoked for 100% of roles, rows hash-chained. | Editable text logs on a server, with 0 cryptographic protection against alteration. |
| API protection | Rate limiting, Zod schema validation, and RBAC asserted server-side on every Next.js route. | A 3rd-party proxy firewall bolted in front of an application that still trusts its own client. |
| Compliance evidence | One-action export of access records as JSON or CSV, mapped to SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, and ISO 27001 clauses. | Manual log collection across 4 or more tools, repeated at every audit cycle. |
| Source code ownership | 100% owned by your team, auditable at any time, with Terraform describing the AWS infrastructure. | Closed-source binaries and unverified vendor code inside your regulated data boundary. |
| Secret handling | Runtime injection from AWS Secrets Manager or Microsoft Azure Key Vault; 0 credentials in the repository. | Environment files copied between machines, with rotation nobody can evidence afterwards. |
Security Compliance Checklist
We compile code to satisfy rigorous procurement checks, guaranteeing easy validation under common auditing frameworks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are your security systems HIPAA compliant?
The systems are engineered against the HIPAA Security Rule; the compliance determination is not ours to make. Our services implement the technical safeguards at 45 CFR § 164.312 — server-side RBAC, AES-256 field encryption, append-only audit logging, and automatic session termination — and document each one for your assessor. ERPStack holds no HIPAA certification, and under 45 CFR § 164.306(a) the obligation runs to covered entities and their business associates rather than to a vendor.
How do you prevent data alteration in audit logs?
Database grants revoke UPDATE and DELETE on log tables for every role, including the application role, so tampering is impossible rather than merely detectable. Rows are chained with a hash of the previous entry and mirrored within seconds to write-once object storage. Compliance services treat the log as evidence rather than telemetry: if anyone can edit it, an assessor is right to discount it entirely.
What security frameworks do you support?
SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, GDPR, PCI DSS, and ISO 27001. The underlying controls overlap heavily — access control, encryption, logging, change management, backup — so our compliance services implement one control set and map it to each framework's clauses. ERPStack holds none of these certifications and cannot transfer one: the report or certificate is issued to your organisation by the CPA firm, certification body, or QSA you appoint.
Do you provide penetration testing?
We run automated testing continuously and coordinate the independent test rather than marking our own homework. Semgrep SAST scans every commit, dependency audits fail the build on a high-severity match, and OWASP ZAP exercises the deployed application. For the formal penetration test procurement asks for, our compliance services scope the engagement and remediate the findings, but an independent firm performs it — which is what makes the report worth anything.
How do you secure Next.js API endpoints?
Every route asserts authorisation server-side before touching PostgreSQL: a client-supplied role claim is treated as an assertion, never as a fact. Zod schemas validate input at the boundary, rate limits and a Web Application Firewall filter ingress, CORS allow-lists are explicit, and each JWT signature is verified against a rotating key. Compliance services add those boundary tests to the suite, so a regression fails CI rather than an audit.
