theatre.

§ 01 — Method

The audit is not a checklist. It is a narrative — a careful reading of how a system actually behaves under stress, scrutiny, and time. Our reports are written to be read, not merely filed.

01
Scope

We agree on what is in and out of scope in writing, before fieldwork begins.

02
Evidence

Controls are tested against live artifacts — not screenshots, not assertions.

03
Report

A written attestation defensible to your board, auditor, and customers.

They asked harder questions than our previous auditor and produced a report our board actually read end to end. The findings were specific enough that we could fix them on Monday.
