Whether for the first time or for an ongoing journey, navigating waters such as SOC can be a daunting task, even for the largest of enterprises.

What is SOC 2?

System and Organization Controls (SOC) is a suite of service offerings developed by the AICPA.  A SOC 2 engagement is designed to provide service organization management (you), user entities (your customers), business partners, and other parties with information about controls at your company relevant to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, or privacy to support users’ evaluations of their own systems of internal control.

Who needs a SOC 2

Is your organization a service provider that plays any role in collecting, processing, transmitting, storing, organizing, maintaining, securing, housing, and/or disposing of sensitive information and/or systems for other organizations? Do your customers require you to meet certain service level commitments in regard to the security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and/or privacy of sensitive information and/or systems? If so, you are a great candidate for a SOC 2 report.

A SOC 2 report, which is the deliverable after completion of an audit, is typically required by your customers, which they use in their vendor management lifecycle, internal audit, and compliance initiatives. The SOC report provides these “user-entities” important information regarding processes, risk, and controls relevant to security, availability, confidentiality, processing integrity, and/or privacy.

By undergoing a SOC 2 assessment, you will set yourself apart from your competition and signal to your customer’s that you are sound stewards of internal controls.
