Meet Brad, Founder and Security Leader

After 30 years in security and compliance, Brad had seen enough certifications treated as marketing, audits performed instead of passed, and attestation letters that meant nothing. He founded BrightLine to change that. Real security, done right, so the work your organization puts in actually stands for something.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers about our process, timelines, and how BrightLine helps companies achieve meaningful certification.

How long does it take to get certified?

+
It depends on where you’re starting. If you’ve already begun and hit a wall, we can usually get you audit‑ready in about 8–12 weeks. Starting from scratch? Expect roughly 4–6 months for SOC 2 Type I or ISO 27001. During our initial assessment, we’ll outline a realistic timeline based on your environment and goals — no guesswork, just clarity.

Do you handle implementation, or guide our team through it?

+
We work alongside your technical team to put controls in place. You get executive‑level guidance without paying for hands‑on work. We advise, you execute, we validate — simple, transparent, and built for accountability.

What certifications do you help with?

+
SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, FedRAMP — and other frameworks that align with your environment and goals.

Do you work with companies outside Colorado?

+
Yes. BrightLine is Colorado‑based but works with clients across the U.S. and internationally.

What makes BrightLine different from other compliance consultants?

+
BrightLine brings thirty years of security leadership and a hands‑on advisory model. We don’t perform for audits — we help leaders build lasting trust with customers and regulators.
