Our SOC2 How to guide can help organisations understand, structure and deliver the controls needed to meet the Trust Services Criteria and prepare confidently for Type I or Type II audits. It explains how SOC 2 applies to service organisations, clarifies what auditors look for and breaks the process into clear, manageable steps. The guide covers scoping, system boundaries, evidence requirements, documentation expectations and how the five criteria (security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality and privacy) shape your control environment.

SOC 2 is a voluntary reporting framework developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). It’s relevant for service providers that manage customer data, including SaaS platforms, IT services, and cloud infrastructure.
Type I assesses the design of your controls at a point in time. Type II evaluates how effectively those controls operated over a monitoring period (usually 3 to 12 months).
No — but many customers demand it as part of supplier onboarding, especially in technology and finance sectors.
Controls vary based on your scope and systems, but commonly include access management, change control, data backup, logging, vendor risk management, and security incident response.
Type I typically takes 2–3 months with support. Type II takes longer to monitor control effectiveness — usually 6–12 months in total.
Not necessarily. ISOvA provides everything needed for policy management, evidence tracking, control scheduling, and audit documentation.
Yes — we assist with audit walkthroughs, control demonstrations, evidence packaging, and auditor responses.
Absolutely. We help design integrated systems that satisfy multiple frameworks with minimal duplication.
We support ongoing SOC 2 maintenance, updates, and recertification preparation to ensure your report remains valid and valuable.
