It’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for, furiously implementing controls and checking changes, training employees, and gathering evidence. The time to prove that implementing best practices has secured your business. It’s time for the SOC 2 audit.
Management, auditors, regulators, and your customers use SOC 2 reports when performing due diligence, examining oversight of your information security, and meeting governance, risk, and compliance program requirements. SOC 2 reports can be long, dense, and difficult to read. We break down each important section of the report in this post.
A risk assessment identifies, documents, and rates information security and privacy risk. Our SOC 2 risk assessment evaluates risks based on the likelihood of occurrence and the potential impact on the organization. SOC 2 requires a comprehensive risk assessment for auditors, and a future-focused strategy is vital to a scalable compliance program.

When you’re starting out, it can be easy to overlook security policies and practices in favor of “moving fast and breaking things.” But if you want to grow your business long-term, your prospects and customers need to know that their data is secure. This guide spells out what ISO 27001 is, why businesses need it, and how to tackle certification.
