SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2)

SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is an established set of standards created by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) to assess the effectiveness of an organization’s data security and privacy controls. SOC 2 conformity measures a company’s capability to protect information of its customers, as well as maintain the availability of systems, integrity of processes security, confidentiality, and protect privacy.

SOC 2 Compliance audits determine whether the security policies of the company and procedures are in place and comply with the AICPA’s Trust Services Criteria. SOC 2 audits of compliance give assurance to regulators, customers and other stakeholders that the company has taken the proper steps to secure its systems and data.

Why is SOC 2 Compliance Important?

The SOC 2 standard is crucial for all businesses who process, store, or transmit sensitive information. Conformity to SOC 2 standards is not just a legal requirement in certain industries but also mean businesses can demonstrate their commitment to security of data.

SOC 2 compliance demonstrates an organization's commitment to protecting data which helps establish trust with customers and other stakeholders.

Compliance with regulations

Compliance with SOC 2 is a requirement in certain sectors, like finance to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

Reduced risk

SOC 2 compliance helps decrease the chance of cyber-attacks, which could cause financial loss in reputational damage as well as legal responsibility.
