Compliance done right.
By people who mean it.

Johanson Group is a security and compliance audit firm built on a simple premise: every client deserves the same level of expertise, attention, and accountability — regardless of size, industry, or geography. That principle shapes everything we do.

Who We Are

A firm built on expertise, not overhead.

We were founded on the belief that compliance firms too often prioritize process over outcomes. Our clients come to us not just for a report — but for a compliance program that holds up when auditors, regulators, and enterprise procurement teams look closely. Everything we do is designed to that standard.

A Customer Success Manager on every engagement

Every client — regardless of scope — is assigned a dedicated Customer Success Manager who owns the entire engagement from scoping through annual renewal. You have one point of contact. You tell your story once.

Multiple frameworks, one conversation

If you're considering more than one framework, talk to us before scoping them separately. Overlapping controls and shared evidence often mean concurrent audits take far less time than sequential ones — and your Customer Success Manager and auditors can map out exactly where those efficiencies exist for your environment.

Assessors who specialize, not generalize

Every framework in our catalog is covered by assessors with specific, deep expertise in that standard — not generalists applying the same approach to every engagement.

Global reach, consistent standard

Our team operates across time zones and geographies — serving clients in the US, Latin America, Europe, and the APAC region with the same methodology, the same rigor, and the same accountability regardless of where the work happens.

Our Values

The principles that govern how we work.

These aren't aspirational statements. They're the standards we hold ourselves to on every engagement — and the basis on which our clients should evaluate us.

Integrity

We tell clients what they need to hear — not what they want to hear. When a gap exists, we identify it clearly. When a framework doesn't apply, we say so. Our assessments are honest, our findings are documented, and our recommendations are in the client's best interest — not ours.

Innovation

The compliance landscape changes faster than most firms adapt. New standards emerge, regulations expand, and the frameworks clients need evolve. We invest continuously in staying ahead of that curve.

Communication

Compliance engagements fail when clients don't know where they stand. We believe in clear, consistent communication at every stage — what's in scope, what's been tested, what was found, and what comes next. Your dedicated CSM proactively keeps you informed, not waiting for you to ask.

Accountability

We stand behind our work. Every assessment we issue, every score we document, and every recommendation we make carries our name and our professional reputation. We take that seriously — and so should you. If something isn't right, we own it and we fix it.

Our Team

The people behind every engagement.

Johanson Group is more than a team of auditors; behind every engagement is a full suite of professionals dedicated to your success — experienced practitioners, GRC specialists, dedicated Customer Success Managers, and an administrative team that makes the whole thing seamless. Every person here shares the same standard: get it right, and take care of the client.
