SOC 2
The de facto standard for demonstrating security to enterprise SaaS customers.
Overview
SOC 2 reports, issued after an independent CPA firm audit, attest that a service organization's controls meet the AICPA's Trust Services Criteria — most commonly Security, and optionally Availability, Confidentiality, Processing Integrity, and Privacy. A Type II report additionally validates that controls operated effectively over an observation period, typically 3-12 months.
Key Requirements
- Defined system description and Trust Services Criteria scope
- Operating policies mapped to each in-scope criterion
- Continuous evidence collection across the observation period (Type II)
- Independent CPA firm audit and report issuance
Who Needs This
- • B2B SaaS companies selling to enterprise customers
- • Vendors processing customer data on behalf of regulated clients
- • Any organization facing recurring security questionnaires in sales cycles
Typical Timeline
10-14 weeks readiness, plus a 3-12 month observation period for Type II
