SOC 2 Type I & Type II

SOC 2 without the guesswork.

We scope the trust criteria, close the gaps, collect the evidence and sit beside you through fieldwork. You walk into the audit already knowing the answer.

SaaS and service companies whose customers ask for a SOC 2 report before they sign.

Simulated environment, real workflow.

Control readiness

Know how many controls pass before the auditor does.

Automated tests run against every control we can check from your systems. Failing ones arrive with an owner and a fix, so the audit window holds no surprises.

How readiness works

Five steps from first call to audit-ready.

  1. 01

    Scope

    Pick the trust services criteria, systems and Type I or Type II based on what your customers actually need.

    Output: Scope memo

  2. 02

    Gap assessment

    Map your current controls to the criteria and rank the gaps by audit risk and effort.

    Output: Gap register

  3. 03

    Remediate

    Write the policies, set up the controls and connect evidence sources so nothing is screenshots in a folder.

    Output: Policies and controls

  4. 04

    Observation window

    Run the controls, review evidence monthly and fix drift before an auditor finds it.

    Output: Evidence log

  5. 05

    Audit support

    Coordinate the independent auditor, answer requests and manage fieldwork through to the final report.

    Output: Auditor request list

FAQ

Straight answers.

Type I or Type II?

Type I checks design at a point in time; Type II checks that controls ran over a period. Most enterprise buyers ask for Type II. A Type I can unblock deals sooner.

Do you issue the SOC 2 report?

The report is issued by an independent licensed CPA firm. We prepare you and coordinate the audit.

Which trust criteria do we need?

Security is always in scope. Add Availability, Confidentiality, Processing Integrity or Privacy only when customers or contracts require it.

Can we reuse this for ISO 27001?

Yes. Most SOC 2 controls map to ISO 27001 Annex A, so the second framework costs a fraction of the first.
