WHAT IS SOC 2 COMPLIANCE?
Enhance Credibility With SOC 2 Compliance Reporting
SOC reports are independent audits performed by Certified Public Accountants (CPAs) under AICPA
standards. These assess how well an organization safeguards data, ensures privacy, maintains
integrity, and manages controls. SOC 1 is for financial reporting, SOC 2 evaluates security and
operational controls, and SOC 3 offers a public SOC 2 summary. Reports are issued as Type 1
(point-in-time) or Type 2 (over a period).

Quick Guide To SOC 2 Compliance Report
SOC 2 is an independent audit framework evaluating how well an organization’s
controls protect client data, maintain privacy, and uphold security, availability,
processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy criteria.
Any service organization that stores or processes client data, especially SaaS, IT,
finance, and healthcare providers, should pursue SOC 2 to prove trust and security
in vendor selection.
SOC 2 examines five core criteria: Security (mandatory), Availability, Processing
Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy. Organizations choose which criteria fit
their operations.
Type 1 audits controls at a single point in time. Type 2 assesses their operating
effectiveness over a set period.
Independent Certified Public Accountants (CPAs) qualified in SOC standards conduct
the audit under AICPA guidelines.
Timelines vary; most organizations need several months for readiness assessments,
implementation, and the audit reporting period (especially for Type 2).
A readiness assessment reviews your current controls, policies, and processes,
identifies gaps, and provides actionable steps to prepare for the audit.
Challenges include incomplete documentation, unclear processes, lack of continuous
monitoring, and non-compliant vendor management. Preparation and expert guidance
minimize these.
Evidence includes policies, procedural documentation, logs, incident reports, and
system screenshots showing implementation and effectiveness.
Yes. Organizations use SOC 2 reports to demonstrate reliability, build trust, and
satisfy customer due diligence requirements.
SOC 2 Type 2 audits should be performed annually to maintain ongoing compliance and
trust.
Many SOC 2 controls overlap with other frameworks (e.g., ISO 27001, GDPR), allowing
organizations to reuse evidence and streamline audits.
