GxP + SOC 2
FDA/GxP for biotech, SOC 2 for the Triangle's tech
The Research Triangle is one of the country's great science-and-technology hubs. Research Triangle Park — anchored by Duke, UNC, and NC State — is packed with biotech, pharma, and pharma-manufacturing companies, alongside a deep software and tech base (SAS, Red Hat, IBM, Cisco, and a fast-growing startup scene) and world-class academic medical centers. Add explosive growth and a steady stream of relocations, and you have a market built on regulated science, valuable IP, and research data.
Each of those worlds answers to something exacting — FDA quality systems and GxP (21 CFR Part 11) for biotech and pharma, SOC 2 and ISO 27001 for the software firms, HIPAA for the hospitals, and research-data and export-control requirements for the universities. Most local IT shops can't carry that weight. intSignal runs managed IT, a 24×7 security operation, cloud, and business communications under one roof — and produces the validation and compliance evidence the FDA, auditors, and IRBs expect.
We support businesses across Wake, Durham, and Orange counties and the wider Research Triangle. Senior engineers own your account, and because we operate our own geo-redundant infrastructure across three regions, we can place workloads where performance, cost, and compliance line up — and keep your recovery copy well outside the Carolinas' storm zone.
The services where being local actually changes the outcome — the region your data lives in, latency, on-site speed, the local climate, and a local phone number.
Regulated science and technology define this market. We lead every engagement with the obligation that matters to you.
Instead of juggling a helpdesk, a security firm, a cloud reseller, and a phone company, one team owns it all. When something breaks, there's one number to call and one team responsible — with real stake in keeping your business.
Between FDA/GxP for biotech and SOC 2 for the software firms, the Triangle runs on validated systems and audited controls. We speak both — building the evidence the FDA, auditors, and IRBs expect, run by senior engineers rather than a scripted call center.
We run geo-redundant enterprise hosting across three regions, so we can place each workload where performance, cost, and compliance line up — public, private, or hybrid — and keep your recovery copy well outside the Carolinas.
Remote-first for speed, with local technicians across the Triangle for hands-on work — and DR designed for a region that takes hurricanes inland and ice storms most winters.
Tell us your stack and priorities — we return scope, ownership, and a plan, at no cost.
A complete outsourced IT department for Raleigh businesses — or a co-managed extension of the team you already have.
A 24×7 security operation and the compliance work Raleigh's regulated industries actually need — run by senior analysts, not an alert forwarder.
Public, private, or hybrid — placed where performance, cost, and compliance line up, on infrastructure we run across three regions.
Put data and AI to work — automation, analytics, and vision that improve how Raleigh teams operate.
Replace an aging phone system with a cloud platform that travels with your team — voice, texting, video, and mobile, with AI built in.
The software that runs it all — our own security, network, and operations platforms, available managed or co-managed.
A short, low-risk path from first call to a running, monitored environment.
We map your Triangle environment and the compliance you carry — FDA/GxP for biotech, SOC 2 for tech, HIPAA for healthcare — at no cost.
A clear roadmap prioritized by the validations, audits, and research requirements that matter most, with resilience built in for Carolina hurricanes and ice.
We secure and stabilize first — identity, backups with a copy outside the Carolinas, endpoints, and monitoring — and stand up the validation and evidence the FDA and auditors expect.
24×7 operations, a named team, and quarterly reviews that keep you audit-ready and storm-ready.
On-site support across Wake, Durham, and Orange counties — the wider Research Triangle, including RTP and the university towns.
Yes. We're remote-first for speed, but we dispatch engineers across Wake, Durham, and Orange counties — Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, Cary, and RTP — for hands-on work like installs, cabling, hardware, and new-office builds.
Yes — in Research Triangle Park, it's a core engagement. We align IT and security to FDA quality systems and GxP (21 CFR Part 11), protect research and trade-secret IP, and deliver HIPAA-ready controls — designed so validation and lab and manufacturing systems aren't disrupted.
Yes. We build and monitor the controls, run the security program, and produce the evidence auditors and your enterprise buyers ask for.
Backups run locally for fast restores and are automatically replicated to a second region well outside the Carolinas — clear of the region's hurricanes, flooding, and ice. So a storm or outage can't take out both your systems and your recovery copy.
Yes. Our UCaaS platform is a full cloud phone system — calls, business texting, video meetings, a contact center, and business cellular — with AI transcription and IVR. We provision local 919 and 984 numbers, port your existing lines, and you can keep desk phones, go fully mobile, or both.
From small and mid-sized organizations — roughly 20 to 500 staff — to their compliance-heavy suppliers, plus multi-site and growing companies. Our security operation and cloud scale up cleanly as you grow and add locations.
