SOC 2 Type I & Type II Readiness

SOC 2 is the audit of choice for SaaS, fintech, healthtech and B2B technology vendors selling into North America, Europe and increasingly the GCC.

• Enterprise buyers — banks, insurers, healthcare networks and Fortune 1000 procurement — routinely require a current SOC 2 Type II report before signing a master services agreement.
• The 2017 Trust Services Criteria (revised 2022) plus the 2022 points of focus form the audit baseline; AICPA-registered CPA firms perform the examination.

We cover all five Trust Services Criteria — Security (mandatory), Availability, Confidentiality, Processing Integrity and Privacy — including the common criteria (CC1–CC9) on control environment, communication, risk assessment, monitoring, control activities, logical/physical access, system operations, change management and risk mitigation.

• Deliverables include the system description, control matrix, evidence repository design, vendor risk assessments, sub-service organisation carve-outs, and bridge-letter management between annual reports.

Three-stage delivery: readiness assessment, control build, audit liaison.

• We map your existing AWS/Azure/GCP controls, identity providers, CI/CD pipelines and ticketing tools to TSC criteria so 70–90 percent of evidence is collected automatically through tools like Vanta, Drata, Secureframe, Tugboat or in-house pipelines.
• For Type II, we manage the 3-, 6- or 12-month observation window, perform monthly control walkthroughs, and prepare the auditor information request list.

First-time SOC 2 Type I in 60–90 days, Type II within 6–9 months of starting.

• Direct revenue impact: SOC 2-ready vendors close enterprise deals 40 percent faster on average, unlock six- and seven-figure contracts gated on the report, and shorten security review cycles from 60 days to under two weeks.
• Ongoing the report becomes a sales asset published in your trust centre and shared under NDA.
