SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is a widely recognized framework designed to evaluate the security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy of an organization's systems and data. SOC 2 compliance is essential for businesses that handle sensitive data, particularly in industries such as technology, healthcare, and finance, where trust and security are paramount.


What is SOC 2?

SOC 2 is a standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), focusing on five key trust service principles:

  • Security: The protection of systems and data from unauthorized access and cyber threats.
  • Availability: The accessibility of systems and data as agreed upon with clients.
  • Processing Integrity: Ensuring systems process data accurately and consistently.
  • Confidentiality: Protecting sensitive data from unauthorized access.
  • Privacy: Safeguarding personal information in accordance with privacy policies.
SOC 2 compliance is an important indicator of a company's commitment to upholding industry-leading standards in protecting client data and ensuring secure operations.

The SOC 2 Compliance Audit Process

1

Pre-Audit Assessment

The journey begins with an initial assessment to evaluate your current security practices. Our experts conduct a detailed review to identify any gaps between your existing processes and SOC 2's requirements.

2

Implementation of Controls

Based on the assessment, we work with you to implement the necessary security controls across your systems and processes to meet SOC 2 criteria. This step includes documentation and the establishment of best practices around data handling, user access, and system monitoring.

3

Internal Review

Before the official SOC 2 audit, an internal review is performed to ensure that all security controls are operational and that processes align with SOC 2 standards. This step helps identify any areas that need improvement before the external audit.

4

SOC 2 Type I Audit

The Type I audit focuses on whether your security controls are properly designed and implemented at a specific point in time. An independent auditor evaluates your controls and determines if they meet SOC 2 requirements.

5

SOC 2 Type II Audit

The Type II audit goes beyond a point-in-time assessment, evaluating whether the security controls are consistently operating effectively over a period (usually 6 to 12 months). This is a more in-depth audit, assessing the operational effectiveness of your security measures.

6

Reporting and Certification

Following the audit, you will receive a SOC 2 report detailing the results of the audit. If you pass, you will receive the SOC 2 certification, which you can share with clients to demonstrate your compliance.

7

Ongoing Monitoring and Improvement

Achieving SOC 2 compliance is just the beginning. Regular audits, continual monitoring, and refining your security practices are necessary to maintain certification and improve your organization's security posture over time.
