SOC 1 and SOC 2 Compliance

The SOC (System and Organization Controls) reports are designed to help service organizations demonstrate their commitment to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. There are two primary types of SOC reports: SOC 1 and SOC 2.

SOC 1 Compliance

SOC 1 reports focus on the controls at a service organization that are relevant to user entities' financial statements. These reports are particularly important for organizations that handle financial data and need to ensure the accuracy and integrity of their financial reporting. Key components of SOC 1 compliance include.

Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting (ICFR)

SOC 1 reports evaluate the effectiveness of a service organization's internal controls over financial reporting. This includes controls related to transaction processing, data integrity, and financial reporting accuracy..

Type 1 and Type 2 Reports

SOC 1 reports can be either Type 1 or Type 2. Type 1 reports focus on the suitability of the design of controls at a specific point in time, while Type 2 reports evaluate the operating effectiveness of those controls over a period of time.

Type 1 and Type 2 Reports

SOC 2 reports focus on a service organization's controls related to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. These reports are essential for organizations that handle sensitive data and need to demonstrate their commitment to protecting that data. Key components of SOC 2 compliance include.

Trust Services Criteria

SOC 2 reports are based on the Trust Services Criteria, which include security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. These criteria ensure that a service organization's systems are protected against unauthorized access, available for operation, and processing data accurately.

Type 1 and Type 2 Reports

Similar to SOC 1, SOC 2 reports can be either Type 1 or Type 2. Type 1 reports assess the design of controls at a specific point in time, while Type 2 reports evaluate the operating effectiveness of those controls over a period of time.
