Introduction

In today’s digital economy, cloud platforms run the backbone of business operations. But with opportunity comes risk. Customers demand proof that their data is secure, and regulators set strict requirements.

That’s why The Cloud Marketplace Company SAS, based in Lyon, France, decided to pursue ISO 27001 and GDPR compliance. With a fast-growing platforms, WeTransact, they knew certification was the key to unlocking bigger contracts and building long-term trust.

The challenge? They had just six weeks to prepare for both frameworks without slowing down their rapid pace of innovation. To make it possible, they turned to Axipro as their advisory partner and Prescient Security as the independent audit partner.

About The Cloud Marketplace

The Cloud Marketplace Company is a software development company helping businesses drive revenue through Azure Marketplace. Their flagship platform, WeTransact, streamlines marketplace operations , making it easy for companies to transact big deals and move faster – with confidence.

With a team of 50 employees, they run operations on Azure. This cloud approach gives them flexibility but also adds layers of complexity when it comes to managing compliance and security.

For their leadership team, ISO 27001 and GDPR compliance weren’t just about certifications. It was about credibility. It was about showing every customer, from startups to enterprises, that their platforms are secure by design.

Challenge: Scaling & Upgrading Compliance

As a scaling cloud marketplace provider, the company faced a set of urgent challenges:

  • Client pressure: Enterprise customers required ISO 27001 and GDPR compliance before signing long-term contracts.
  • Tight deadline: They needed to prepare for certification within just six weeks.
  • Complex infrastructure: Running on Azure meant doubling the effort for documenting and aligning security controls.
  • Growing responsibilities: With a lean team, every hour spent on compliance was an hour not spent improving their platforms.

The stakes were high. Without certifications, they risked stalled deals and lost opportunities. With them, they could accelerate growth and enter new markets with confidence.

Solution: Axipro’s Guided Transition

The Cloud Marketplace Company didn’t want compliance to slow them down. They needed structure, clarity, and accountability. That’s where Axipro came in as the advisory partner.

We guided their leadership team through a clear roadmap for ISO 27001 and GDPR compliance. Every milestone was mapped out. Every responsibility was clarified. Instead of guessing what auditors would ask for, the team had a checklist and coaching at every step.

At the same time, Prescient Security, the independent audit partner, provided oversight and assurance. Together, the advisory and audit approach gave the company the confidence to move forward without derailing day-to-day operations.

Jack, one of the leaders at The Cloud Marketplace Company, summed it up perfectly:

The process felt less like a burden and more like a growth step. With Axipro’s guidance, we didn’t just prepare for certification; we understood why it mattered to our business.

Results: Smooth Audit, Stronger Governance

Six weeks later, the effort paid off. The Cloud Marketplace Company reached critical milestones:

  • Demonstrated full GDPR compliance for data protection.
  • Built a scalable security framework across AWS and Azure.
  • Increased client trust, leading to stronger enterprise relationships.
