Pilotcore

Pilotcore helps teams prepare for security reviews, compliance obligations, procurement requirements, and customer audits by making their systems, processes, and evidence easier to assess and defend.

Based in Ottawa and serving clients across Canada and the United States, we specialize in security and compliance readiness for startups, regulated teams, defence contractors, and organizations that need practical help turning requirements into working controls.

Our work is platform-neutral and implementation-focused. We help clients understand what is required, identify gaps, prioritize remediation, improve security operations, and produce clearer evidence for auditors, customers, insurers, and procurement teams.

Core service areas include:

Compliance Readiness: gap assessments, control mapping, remediation roadmaps, evidence planning, and implementation support for SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, CMMC, and Canadian Cyber Security Certification Program (CPCSC) readiness.

Security Program Support: security governance, risk assessment, policy alignment, access-control review, vendor/security questionnaire support, and practical operating procedures.

Technical Control Implementation: identity and access management, logging and monitoring, backup and recovery, vulnerability management, encryption, secure configuration, and evidence-friendly system design.

DevSecOps & Engineering Operations: secure CI/CD, infrastructure as code, change-control practices, observability, rollback planning, and security controls that fit how engineering teams actually work.

Technical Leadership & Enablement: fractional CTO/CISO support, architecture reviews, roadmap planning, vendor evaluation, and hands-on knowledge transfer.

Pilotcore is not an auditor, certification body, C3PAO, or 3PAO. We help teams close technical and operational gaps before audits, assessments, customer security reviews, and compliance-driven procurement requirements create urgency.
