What is SOC 2 compliance?

SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is a framework developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). It evaluates how companies manage internal controls to safeguard data across five Trust Services Criteria (TSC).

Security

Protecting systems from unauthorized access and security threats.

Availability

Ensuring systems are operational and accessible as expected.

Processing Integrity

Verifying that systems process data accurately, timely, and reliably.

Confidentiality

Protecting sensitive and proprietary business information.

Privacy

Managing personally identifiable information (PII) in accordance with privacy regulations like GDPR and CCPA.

Why should your business prioritize SOC 2?

Win Trust and Shorten Sales Cycles

Demonstrate that you have mature internal controls, protecting both business operations and customer data.

Expand into New Markets

SOC 2 is often required by enterprise buyers across industries like finance, healthcare, and cloud services. Meeting these expectations removes blockers in procurement and compliance reviews.

Improve Security Across the Board

The audit preparation process prompts organizations to implement stronger network security, access controls, risk management, and incident response plans.

Gain a Competitive Edge

Companies that proactively manage compliance—especially those operating in AI, SaaS, or data-intensive services—position themselves as more trustworthy and professional.

A closer look at SOC 2 criteria.

Understanding each Trust Services Criterion is essential for effective implementation:

Security

Firewall configuration, endpoint protection, and secure data center access.

Availability

Monitoring system uptime, failover testing, and cloud service resilience.

Processing Integrity

Accurate transaction handling, reliable business processes, and data validation.

Confidentiality

Encryption, access restrictions, and secure data disposal.

Privacy

Managing PII in line with data protection regulations.
