SOC 2 Compliance and Readiness
INQUIRE NOW
The Gold Standard for Trust. Simplified for Your Business.
SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is a voluntary compliance standard developed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) that specifies how organizations should manage customer data based on the five Trust Services Criteria (TSCs): Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy. For SMBs, achieving SOC 2 is often a requirement to onboard large enterprise clients or secure sensitive customer data. Our service takes the complexity out of the audit process, guiding you from readiness to final report, proving your commitment to digital trust.
The Challenge: The Audit Readiness Barrier
Most SMBs lack the structured documentation and defined controls needed to pass a rigorous SOC 2 audit. Attempting it internally leads to:
Overwhelming Complexity: Trying to interpret hundreds of pages of requirements and control definitions without expert guidance.
Wasted Resources: Spending months implementing incorrect controls or documenting non-essential processes.
Audit Failure Risk: Receiving a qualified opinion (or a failure) that damages credibility and delays essential contracts.
Lack of Visibility: Not having a single, cohesive view of internal security and operational controls.
Our Approach: Structured Readiness and Proactive Partnership
We function as your dedicated Proactive Partnership, using our expertise (CGRC certified) to create a clear, phased roadmap tailored to your specific business model and the required Trust Services Criteria.
Key Service Pillars:
Scope and Criteria Definition:
We collaborate with you to define the audit scope, focusing only on the most relevant Trust Services Criteria (TSC) for your business (Security is mandatory; others are optional).
We identify the systems and processes that must be included in the final audit report.
Gap Analysis and Remediation Planning:
We perform a thorough assessment against the chosen TSCs, identifying missing policies, undocumented procedures, and technical control gaps.
We provide a clear, prioritized remediation plan that focuses on high-impact, easy-to-implement changes, ensuring cost-effectiveness.
Control Implementation and Documentation:
We assist in defining, implementing, and documenting all required security controls, from access control procedures and vulnerability management protocols to change management processes.
We help prepare the required internal evidence and documentation for the auditor.
Audit Liaison and Management:
We remain at your side during the formal audit period, serving as the technical liaison between your team and the independent auditor, answering questions and facilitating evidence review with full Transparency.
