Cybersecurity Breaches Are on the Rise - Reduce Your Risk

We offer comprehensive SOC 2 compliance services tailored to your unique needs. SOC 2 compliance is an industry-standard framework that assesses and verifies an organization’s ability to protect customer data, maintain system availability, and preserve the privacy of sensitive information.

What is SOC 2?

SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is a compliance framework developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) to ensure that companies handling customer data implement strict security and privacy controls. It is based on five Trust Services Criteria: Security (mandatory), Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy.

Organizations that achieve SOC 2 compliance undergo a rigorous audit by an independent CPA firm to verify that their security practices meet industry standards.

The main benefit of SOC 2 compliance is that it builds trust with customers and partners by demonstrating strong data protection measures. It also helps businesses reduce security risks, comply with regulatory requirements, and gain a competitive edge in industries where data security is critical (e.g., SaaS, healthcare, and finance). Many organizations require their vendors to be SOC 2 compliant before doing business, making it an essential certification for companies handling sensitive data. By continuously monitoring and improving security controls, SOC 2 ensures that organizations maintain a high level of cybersecurity and operational integrity.

The 5 Trust Services Criteria (TSC) for SOC 2

Navigating SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria (TSC) can be challenging because it requires a deep understanding of security controls, risk management, and compliance best practices. Each criterion has detailed requirements that must be implemented and continuously monitored. Uzado's experts can help.
