Understanding SOC 2

What is SOC 2 Compliance?

SOC 2 is a voluntary compliance framework developed by the AICPA for service organizations. It defines criteria for managing customer data based on five trust services principles: Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy.

SOC 2 Type I

Point-in-time assessment of your security controls design.

  • Controls properly designed
  • Policies documented
  • 4-6 week audit
  • Stepping stone to Type II

SOC 2 Type II (Recommended)

Evaluates operating effectiveness over time.

  • Controls operating effectively
  • 3-12 month observation period
  • Continuous evidence collection
  • Preferred by enterprises
Trust Services Criteria

The Five Trust Principles

Security is mandatory. The other four are optional based on your business needs.

Security (Required)

Protection against unauthorized access, both physical and logical. Includes access controls, firewalls, intrusion detection, and encryption.

Availability

System uptime, performance, monitoring, and incident response. Critical for SaaS providers with uptime SLAs.

Processing Integrity

System processing is complete, valid, accurate, timely, and authorized. Important for financial or data processing services.

Confidentiality

Protection of confidential information from unauthorized disclosure. Required if you handle proprietary customer data.

Privacy

Collection, use, retention, disclosure, and disposal of personal information. Essential for companies handling PII under GDPR or CCPA.

FAQ

Common Questions

What is the difference between SOC 2 Type I and Type II?

SOC 2 Type I is a point-in-time assessment that evaluates whether your security controls are properly designed. SOC 2 Type II evaluates whether those controls are operating effectively over a period of time (typically 3-12 months). Most customers and prospects prefer Type II because it demonstrates sustained compliance, not just proper design.

How long does a SOC 2 audit take?

SOC 2 Type I audits typically take 4-8 weeks from kickoff to report delivery. Type II audits require a 3-12 month observation period followed by 4-8 weeks of audit work. With our automated evidence collection and continuous monitoring, we significantly reduce the manual effort required during the audit period.

Which trust services criteria do I need?

Security is mandatory for all SOC 2 audits. The other four criteria (Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, Privacy) are optional and should be selected based on your business model and customer requirements. Most SaaS companies need Security + Availability at minimum. We'll help you determine the right criteria during your assessment.

Can you help us pass our first SOC 2 audit?

Absolutely. We specialize in first-time SOC 2 audits. We'll conduct a readiness assessment, identify gaps, implement necessary controls, establish automated evidence collection, and guide you through the entire audit process. Our goal is to make your first audit as smooth as possible while building a sustainable compliance program.

Do you provide auditor services or just consulting?

We provide compliance consulting and automation services. We are not a CPA firm and do not perform SOC 2 audits. However, we work closely with several reputable SOC 2 auditing firms and can recommend auditors that fit your budget and timeline. We'll help you prepare for the audit and manage the audit process from start to finish.

How much does SOC 2 certification cost?

SOC 2 Type I audits typically cost $15,000-$50,000 depending on company size and complexity. Type II audits range from $25,000-$100,000+. Our compliance automation and consulting services typically cost $5,000-$20,000 depending on scope, but we save clients 50-100 hours of internal effort and often reduce audit fees by demonstrating strong readiness.
