Totally on board with the goals, and I've done some similar work, though haven't gotten anything nearly as trim as this as the output.

I'm interested in if/how this has stood up in externally-audited scenarios, like SOC2/ISO27001 or similar. I get that it's successfully avoided some customer scenarios, but am thinking of more formal processes.

At a glance, it covers many of the bases at a high level, but wonder if it's missing the specifics that an external auditor might typically expect to see from a policy manual. Are there additional sub-documents/playbooks/etc for many of these that elaborate further?

We haven't yet gone through any audits [we're small/young], but we've began to prepare for SOC2. The policy itself is absolutely insufficient for anything of the sort and we expect that we will generate a ton of further documentation. After all, SOC2 is essentially all about documenting your processes in detail.
