INDUSTRY / SAAS & TECHNOLOGY
SaaS and technology companies grow or shrink one renewal at a time, and by the time a churn dashboard shows red, the customer has usually already decided to leave. On top of that, enterprise buyers now ask for a SOC 2 report before they'll sign anything. Cyber6 helps you spot churn risk while it's still fixable, get through security questionnaires faster, and put real controls behind the answers.

Account health
WE GET IT
Usage drops and nobody notices for weeks
A customer's product usage falls off a cliff, and the first person to notice is the customer, when they decide not to renew.
Onboarding stalls and the customer goes quiet
A new account gets partway through setup, hits a snag, and stops responding. Nobody follows up until the trial or contract is close to expiring.
Support tickets pile up during a growth spurt
A wave of new signups means support volume outpaces the team, and response times slip right when first impressions matter most.
An enterprise deal stalls on a SOC 2 questionnaire
Legal and security review at a big prospect asks for a SOC 2 report or a filled-out questionnaire, and the deal sits until someone can answer it.
Engineers ship fast and security review lags behind
New features go out under deadline pressure, and a security review of the code and cloud configuration happens after launch, if at all.
Customer data handled under a DPA nobody reviews again
A data processing agreement gets signed once at contract time and never revisited as the product and its subprocessors change.
Cloud misconfiguration nobody's watching for
A storage bucket or database gets set up quickly to hit a deadline, and the access settings are never reviewed again.
THE IMPACT
Revenue that leaves without warning
A churned account often gave clear signals, like dropping usage or stalled onboarding, weeks before the cancellation. Missing those signals costs the renewal and the referrals it would have brought.
Enterprise deals that stall in procurement
A deal that's otherwise ready to sign can sit for months waiting on a security questionnaire or SOC 2 report nobody's prepared.
Engineering time spent on last-minute compliance work
Answering the same audit findings and questionnaire questions repeatedly pulls engineers off product work every time a big deal appears.
A breach that involves your customers' customers
As a processor, a breach on your side can become a notification obligation for every customer whose data you hold, not just your own.
Support backlogs that become churn
A slow response during onboarding or a rough patch is one of the fastest ways a new customer decides your product isn't worth the trouble.
COMPLIANCE
This is general information, not legal advice.
THE FIX
AUTOMATE
The right customers find you on Google, AI search, and social, in your own voice.
Every call, text, form, and quote turns into booked work.
Customers hear from you at the right time, without your team chasing them.
Churn risk scoring
Signals like falling usage, stalled onboarding, and unanswered tickets combine into a risk score that flags accounts to customer success before they churn.
Money you've already earned comes in sooner, without awkward phone calls.
Less retyping and waiting, more time for the work that matters.
Support assistance
AI-assisted first responses and knowledge-base answers for common questions, with a human handling anything that needs judgment.
Onboarding drop-off recovery
A stalled onboarding step triggers a timely, helpful nudge and a flag to customer success for accounts that need a human.
PROTECT
We assess your current controls against the SOC 2 trust criteria, help you close the gaps, and set up ongoing evidence collection so next year's audit isn't a scramble.
What this means for you: The next enterprise questionnaire gets answered with a report instead of a delay.
Code and dependency scanning catches known vulnerabilities before they ship, and we help you build security review into your release process instead of bolting it on after.
What this means for you: Fewer emergency patches, and a cleaner answer when a customer asks about your development process.
We review your cloud environment's identity, storage, and logging settings against a known-good baseline and fix what's drifted.
What this means for you: The misconfigured storage bucket gets found by us, not by a researcher or an attacker.
Regular testing of your application and infrastructure, with a plain report on what was found and what to fix first.
What this means for you: You can hand a current pen test report to a prospect's security team instead of promising one later.

A DAY WITH CYBER6
8:00 AMAUTOMATE
An account with usage down 62% over 30 days is flagged to customer success with the specific drop-off point, before the renewal conversation.
10:00 AMPROTECT
A dependency scan catches an outdated library with a known vulnerability before the next release ships.
1:00 PMPROTECT
An enterprise prospect's security questionnaire is answered from a current library of SOC 2 evidence instead of starting from scratch.
3:30 PMEMPOWER
A support ticket about a data export request is handled correctly the first time because the team was trained on the process.
YOUR TOOLS
We work alongside the systems you already use. We'll confirm what connects during your assessment.
QUESTIONS
It depends on your starting point. A gap assessment tells you where you stand, and most companies can reach audit-ready within a few months of focused work.
The model combines several signals, not just one, and customer success reviews flagged accounts before reaching out, so it's a starting point, not an automatic action.
Yes. We typically support security review and testing alongside your developers rather than replacing their process.
Security practices are cheaper to build in early than to retrofit later, especially before your codebase and cloud footprint grow.
Most companies only need one to start, usually SOC 2 for U.S. and North American buyers. We help you decide based on who's asking.
Nothing. It's a free review of your churn risk and security posture, with a written summary of what to prioritize.
We work under the same data handling terms you'd expect from any vendor, and we can sign a data processing agreement before we touch anything.
