SOC2 is a voluntary compliance standard that specifies criteria and guidelines in how organizations should handle customer data security based on five trust service principles (TSPs) - security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality and privacy. SOC 2 reports are unique and conform to the organization in line with specific business practices. Many variables influence the effort required to prepare a system for audit and authorization. SOC 2 reports are a continuous effort to implement and evaluate controls consistently. HanaByte can automate and implement compliance services and is able to conduct multiple SOC 2 workshops tailored to your organization to guide related personnel through the processes before submission to a formal SOC 2 audit.
There are two types of SOC 2 reports:
Type 1 describing the organization’s systems and its compliance with the trust principles at a certain point in time.
Type 2 detailing the operational efficiency of the systems and controls over a period of time
