Understanding
SOC 2 Examinations

While other GRC frameworks, such as ISO 27001, can be quite prescriptive—mandating specific controls like setting up firewalls or securing physical access to data centers—SOC 2 offers a high degree of flexibility. This flexibility is especially beneficial for startups that might not have a conventional office environment or that operate across various cloud platforms. SOC 2 allows you to tailor security policies to your unique business model and operational needs, rather than adhering to rigid, one-size-fits-all requirements. SOC 2's are also highly trusted since they're issued by independent CPAs in accordance with AICPA standards.

Why Pursue a SOC 2?

Identify and Mitigate Risk

SOC 2 controls serve as a security roadmap. The SOC 2 process helps organizations mitigate risks such as data breaches, unauthorized access, insider threats, and service disruptions, through highlighting and prescribing ways to address control deficiencies.

Stakeholder Confidence

SOC 2 reports assure your stakeholders that your organization has implemented meaningful controls to secure your systems, processes, and confidential information. This demonstrates that your organization can be trusted with sensitive information.  

Tailored Security Policies

SOC 2 attestations are highly customizable and allow you to design a security framework that fits your unique business model and industry needs. Whether you’re using a cloud-only infrastructure or handling data in innovative ways, SOC 2 adjusts to your setup.

Competitive Advantage

A good SOC 2 report showcases your organization's commitment to data security and integrity, providing a competitive advantage and building trust with clients, partners, and regulators. Increasingly SOC 2 is becoming "table stakes," particularly for SaaS companies.
