Case Study: 6sense achieves SOC 2 Type 1 compliance and protects customer data with Threat Stack

Protecting Customer Data and Meeting SOC 2 Compliance with Threat Stack

6sense, a San Francisco–based B2B predictive intelligence engine running on AWS with 50+ servers, needed to secure a rapidly growing cloud infrastructure and meet SOC 2 requirements without slowing DevOps. With a small team and limited time, 6sense sought a simpler, faster alternative to building and tuning IDS/audit tooling and selected Threat Stack to address those challenges.

Threat Stack was deployed via a one‑line command to provide IDS, File Integrity Monitoring, Network Monitoring and TTY session replay, continuously scanning 6sense’s environment. Using Threat Stack as primary audit evidence, 6sense simplified and accelerated SOC 2 Type 1 certification, avoided weeks of manual setup and vulnerability-scan workarounds, detected previously unknown network activity, and gained full audit trails and faster customer onboarding — delivering measurable compliance and operational peace of mind.
