How Thoropass' security audit experience paved the way for Wayleadr's SOC 2 compliance
CHALLENGE
Effectively communicating compliance posture to key customers
Trusted by world leading employers like Indeed, CBRE, Colliers International, Factset & CEPSA, Wayleadr’s award-winning software solves employee parking & transportation issues for companies all over the world. Wayleadr has everything your company needs to make managing employee parking as easy as possible, including: allocation management, access management, communications, occupancy management, and data & reporting.
Before we worked with Thoropass, we weren’t able to really disseminate and communicate information on our compliance posture to our enterprise customers.
We were getting a lot of security questionnaires that were cumbersome, so we started our own due diligence journey to find a vendor that would bring us through an audit and help us answer questionnaires.

SOLUTION
A hybrid compliance platform combining software and expertise
After performing their own due-diligence, Wayleadr chose Thoropass (formerly Laika) as their trusted compliance platform due to the hybrid model of software and human expertise.
Thoropass was massive in helping us understand the ‘why’ behind so many of the technical and non technical pieces of security controls that we didn’t have much context over.
I also can’t speak highly enough about the quality of service and the incredible attention to detail that came from our team of Thoropass experts.

COMPLIANCE ARCHITECTS
Thoropass’s team of compliance experts guided Wayleadr through every step of the SOC 2 process, from implementation to post audit and DDQ assistance. Whenever any challenge came up, Thoropass was there to give counsel in real time and provide assurance immediately. In fact, Wayleadr was able to onboard onto the Thoropass platform and complete the necessary technical controls to answer a security questionnaire all within a week.
Along with help from the compliance architects, Wayleadr used Thoropass Playbooks to move their SOC 2 Type 1 that tested against the security and confidentiality trust services criteria. Playbooks guided them through a step-by-step task list to implement necessary controls that were required for SOC 2 after an initial gap analysis.
“The product is exceptional. Between the ease of uploading evidence, getting tangible tasks that tell us what to do, and understanding the percentage metrics as you work towards obtaining the different accreditation, the software was quite self-serving.”
SECURITY AUDIT EXPERIENCE
Because of the security audit experience with Thoropass, Wayleadr was able to receive their report in 3 weeks with minimal back and forth.
“The audit process was absolutely painless, and Thoropass made our 3 weeks less of a headache. Once we kicked off the audit, there was one technical follow up call and a draft report meeting. We were incredibly impressed and satisfied with the entire process.”
RESULTS
Ongoing compliance for continued growth and security
Thoropass continues to be Wayleadr’s compliance command center for managing controls, policies, vendor risk and more. As they work towards SOC 2 Type 2, Thoropass team of compliance experts are there to guide them through their implementation, audit, and growth journey.
Looking at this retrospectively, the SOC 2 process would have been a lot more manual without Thoropass.
And to have our product, solution, and techstack up to standards with SOC 2 is excellent, especially for being a young startup. It’s a huge enabler for our sales team as well to communicate that we are up to scratch with SOC 2.
