THE COMPANY

Diesta’s journey to compliance leadership

Diesta streamlines insurance operations with automation but faced strict UK compliance challenges. Achieving ISO 27001, SOC 2, and GDPR compliance was crucial for trust, European expansion, and establishing itself as a security-first leader.

THE CHALLENGE

Unlocking opportunities through compliance

  • Managing complex compliance workflows:Diesta’s compliance team faced fragmented, manual processes that lacked centralization, making it difficult to track multiple frameworks efficiently and increasing operational overhead.
  • Ensuring continuous audit readiness:Audit preparation was time-intensive, often involving last-minute efforts. Spreadsheet-based tracking and siloed processes made maintaining continuous compliance a persistent challenge.
  • Aligning teams for compliance success:Company-wide compliance required structured training and well-defined policies. Sustained compliance depended on role clarity and alignment with regulatory requirements.
  • Establishing trust and competitive differentiation:In fintech, compliance is non-negotiable. Diesta needed to demonstrate its security commitment to gain a competitive edge and earn the trust of vendors and investors.

THE SOLUTION

A precision-driven approach to compliance

As Diesta scaled rapidly, maintaining airtight compliance across multiple frameworks became critical. With Scrut, they adopted a unified, expert-guided approach that brought clarity, control, and confidence to their compliance journey.

ALL FRAMEWORKS

One system, multiple frameworks—backed by expertise

Scrut’s Unified Controls Framework mapped Diesta’s ISO 27001, SOC 2, and GDPR requirements under a single system. Real-time dashboards provided a single source of truth, allowing Diesta to identify potential compliance gaps instantly. What truly set the process apart was Scrut’s deep partnership – Customer Success Managers and Infosec specialists worked closely with Diesta from the initial gap assessment to audit preparation. CSMs built personalized compliance roadmaps, while Infosec experts reviewed controls and ensured they met the strictest audit standards.

RISK MANAGEMENT   Evidence Management

Proactive gap management and audit readiness

Scrut transformed Diesta’s audit prep from reactive to proactive. Automated evidence collection and smart reminders ensured that no task fell through the cracks. Gaps were flagged early, giving the team time to fix issues long before audits. Scrut’s experts stayed hands-on, helping Diesta quickly resolve any roadblocks and stay aligned with evolving frameworks. The result? Dramatically reduced last-minute stress and stronger, audit-ready controls.

Trust Vault   SECURITY TRAINING

Transparency that built stakeholder confidence

With Scrut, Diesta gained full visibility into compliance training, policy attestations, and individual employee progress. Customizable quizzes and live dashboards drove accountability, pushing the organization to a 100% training completion rate. A custom trust page helped Diesta showcase their posture altogether. This not only satisfied audit requirements but also built lasting confidence with stakeholders and regulators alike.

THE IMPACT

Why compliance became key for Diesta’s growth

  • Securing a seat at the EU table:For Diesta, entering the EU insurance market required strict compliance—ISO 27001, SOC 2, and GDPR weren’t optional but essential. Achieving these standards signaled a strong commitment to data security.
  • Building trust, winning clients:In an industry where trust is currency, Diesta’s strong compliance posture and dedicated trust page reassured vendors and potential clients that their sensitive data was secure—no guesswork, no gaps.
  • Continuous compliance as a growth engine:Aligning with global standards not only satisfied regulators but also standardized reporting, reduced compliance gaps, and eliminated redundant processes, enabling more efficient and smoother scaling of operations.
  • Always a step ahead:With constantly shifting regulations, Diesta avoided a reactive approach by automating compliance, staying ahead of changes and preventing penalties and operational issues before they arose.
“At Diesta, consolidating every framework under one roof transformed compliance into a genuine growth enabler.”
