SOC 2 audits must be performed by licensed CPA firms with relevant expertise and AICPA alignment.
Who Conducts a SOC 2 Audit?
A SOC 2 audit must be conducted by an independent Certified Public Accountant (CPA) firm licensed to perform SOC audits.
This ensures that the resulting report adheres to the standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and is recognized by customers and partners.
Choosing the right auditor is key.
Look for a firm that:
Has deep experience with SOC 2 and your industry
Understands modern cloud and SaaS environments
Provides collaborative guidance throughout the process
Delivers clear, actionable audit reports
Many organizations select an auditor that can also support broader compliance needs—such as PCI DSS or ISO 27001—helping build a unified approach to trust and assurance.
