about SOC 2
SOC2 (Service Organization Control 2) is a standardized audit report prepared by independent auditors to represent whether an organization has implemented adequate controls and procedures related to IT systems, data privacy, and data security. The SOC2 report is based on the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) standards and includes a detailed assessment of controls related to security, availability, confidentiality, integrity, and privacy of data. The report is typically requested by companies that provide IT services to other businesses or that store and process sensitive data from customers, such as cloud service providers or software-as-a-service providers.
A SOC 2 certification is not awarded directly; rather, it is an audit report prepared by an independent auditor. In order to receive a SOC 2 report, a company must first implement appropriate controls and procedures that meet the standards of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). A prerequisite for a successful SOC 2 report is an information security management system that meets SOC 2 standards. You can build such an ISMS quickly and automatically with secjur's solution [link].
The costs for an external auditor start at around ten thousand euros, plus costs for necessary software or IT infrastructure - these can quickly amount to several thousand euros and, depending on the size of the company, can also be higher. With SECJUR , you can reduce the costs of building a SOC 2-ready ISMS by up to 70%.
Typically, a SOC 2 audit takes between 3 and 6 months, depending on the size of the company and the scope of the audit. A SOC 2 audit usually includes several phases, such as a preparation phase, an implementation phase, and a completion phase. Additionally, preparing for SOC 2 with the implementation of an information security management system takes several months if done manually - but with secjurs Digital Compliance Office, this preparation can be shortened to a few weeks.
The Digital Compliance Office is SECJUR's compliance platform with integrated expert support. The platform automates processes and activities in data protection and information security. With the information security module, companies can set up an automated information security management system (ISMS) in accordance with the SOC 2 information security standard within a short period of time and prepare their ISMS for the final audit.
