Policies adopted from the template library, as drafts with an owner. Meiyam, demo data.

Put a reviewed, approved policy in force

Adopt a template or bring your own policy. Edit it in Meiyam and keep every version. Approving a version puts it in force, and only the workspace owner can approve. Each template comes with an annual review cadence by default, and any version downloads as a Word document.

Included

  • Templates mapped to SOC 2 and ISO 27001
  • Every version kept
  • Owner approval of the version in force
  • Annual review cadence by default
  • Word download of any version

Know who has accepted each policy

Send each person their own link to read and accept the policies that apply to them. Each acceptance names the policy version it was given for, and the record is exportable for your auditor. Keep the people roster current from a CSV file or by syncing Microsoft Entra ID.

Policy questions

Does Meiyam provide SOC 2 policy templates?

Yes. Meiyam includes 23 security policy templates, each mapped to SOC 2 and ISO 27001, that you edit, version and approve in your workspace. Between them they address every SOC 2 criterion Meiyam tracks.

Does a policy template make a control pass in Meiyam?

No. A template is a starting point. A control rests on a policy only once you approve a version and put it in force, and for a Type 2 period you also attach the records that show the control operated. Whether the control is met is your auditor's judgement.

Can I use my own policies in Meiyam?

Yes. Bring your own policy instead of adopting a template, then edit, version, approve and track acceptance the same way.
