Understanding SOC 2
SOC 2 is the leading security and availability certification for service providers, defining criteria for managing customer data based on five Trust Services Principles.
Developed by the AICPA, SOC 2 reports demonstrate that an organization has implemented appropriate controls across Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy.
Type I reports validate the design of controls at a specific point in time, while Type II reports demonstrate operational effectiveness over a minimum 6-month period. SOC 2 has become essential for B2B SaaS providers and cloud services.
