How Augment Code got 15x lead growth after closing SOC 2 Type 2 gaps with YSecurity
Augment Code is an AI-powered development platform built for engineering teams working with large, complex codebases. Designed to boost team productivity, it delivers personalized completions, ripple-aware edits, and Slack-integrated codebase Q&A—all context-aware and deeply tuned to how a team actually builds software.

The problem
Augment’s product was gaining traction, but security concerns kept stalling procurement. They had the engineering talent—but not the bandwidth or expertise to lead compliance in-house. To win enterprise deals, they needed a partner who could own execution and move fast without breaking focus.
The solution
From day one, YSecurity operated as Augment’s security team: mapping gaps, prioritizing what mattered, and running execution end-to-end. Our approach is built for speed, clarity, and outcomes. Five months later, Augment wasn’t just compliant—they were closing enterprise deals and turning security into a competitive advantage.
We built a roadmap.
They got momentum
Augment had a strong start with Product Security, but key compliance areas were missing. Together, we reviewed 18 core security policies, flagged gaps in cloud infrastructure, privacy, vendor risk, and built a roadmap that gave every team clarity and direction from day one.
We executed.
They stayed focused
To stay on track, Augment brought us in to work alongside their team. We met in person weekly, automated critical controls, and built audit-ready workflows without disrupting engineering. In just 2 months, their 40-person team was fully SOC 2 ready. We entered maintenance mode to manage the 3-month audit window.
The results
Augment passed their audit with zero deviations — clean, fast, and ready for scrutiny. That won new enterprise sales calls and drove 15x growth in security-qualified leads in the first 3 months after achieving SOC 2 Type 2. Security became a sales enabler. We still support Augment on DDQs, diligence calls, and GTM reviews to keep that edge sharp.
