About the firm

One standard of rigor, two ways to apply it.

Trusol Assurance pairs accomplished CPAs with cybersecurity specialists. Our assurance practice turns unverified controls into independently attested trust; our accounting practice — founded as Agarwal Associates — delivers comprehensive, value-added tax and financial solutions with boutique, year-round attention.

Every client is unique, so we build a custom system around you — whether that's an audit calendar your customers can rely on, or an accounting workflow that ends tax-time surprises for good.

”

Ethically bound to excellence

Our team works cohesively and is ethically bound to provide unparalleled service — in the audit room and at the ledger alike.

Both practices run on the same four principles

01
Understanding

We learn what each client needs through focused, attentive listening.

02
Planning

We shape the value-added solutions best suited to your requirements.

03
Implementing

We deliver our solutions with an integrative, team-based approach.

04
Reviewing

We review extensively with you to assess how well it worked.

What we do

Two practices, one standard of rigor.

Independent security & compliance audits — and comprehensive accounting, tax, and advisory. Everything below is delivered by the same firm, under the same four principles.

Practice 01

Security & compliance audits

Attestation

SOC 1 · SOC 2 · SOC 3

The reports your customers actually ask for — Type I and Type II examinations that prove your controls operate, not just exist.

SOC 2 — the enterprise passport

  • Type I: design of controls at a point in time
  • Type II: operating effectiveness over 3–12 months
  • Trust Services Criteria: security, availability, confidentiality, processing integrity, privacy
  • Report language your customers' security teams accept

SOC 1 & SOC 3

  • SOC 1 for controls relevant to financial reporting (ICFR)
  • SOC 3 general-use report for public distribution
  • Bridge letters between reporting periods

How we run it

  • Fixed scope and fee agreed up front
  • Remote-first fieldwork across AWS, GCP, Azure
  • Readiness assessment available before first audit
Certification

ISO 27001 & family

Internationally recognized certification of your ISMS — plus the cloud, privacy, and AI extensions.

ISO/IEC 27001

  • Stage 1 & Stage 2 certification audits of your ISMS
  • Surveillance and recertification cycles
  • Statement of Applicability and risk-treatment review

Extensions

  • ISO 27017 — cloud security controls
  • ISO 27018 — PII protection in public cloud
  • ISO 27701 — privacy information management
  • ISO 42001 — AI management systems

Why it pairs with SOC 2

Much of the evidence overlaps. Run them as a blended audit and collect it once — one calendar, one team, two credentials.

Healthcare

HIPAA

Assessments built for regulated health data — HIPAA Security Rule, Privacy, and Breach Notification compliance for covered entities and business associates.

HIPAA

  • Security Rule risk assessments
  • Privacy and Breach Notification review
  • Business associate compliance programs

Built for regulated data

CPA-level documentation discipline applied to PHI — findings mapped to remediation you can actually schedule.

Privacy

GDPR & CCPA

Privacy program assessments that map how personal data actually moves through your business.

GDPR

  • Readiness assessments and gap analysis
  • Records of processing & data mapping
  • DPIAs for high-risk processing
  • Cross-border transfer mechanism review

CCPA / CPRA

  • Consumer-rights workflow audits
  • Notice, opt-out, and disclosure review
  • Service-provider contract assessment

Privacy as posture

We assess how personal data actually moves through your business — not just what the policy PDF says.
