SOC 2 Compliance
Category: legal
A voluntary technical auditing standard certifying that a service organization securely manages customer data.
Developed by the AICPA, SOC 2 audits companies based on five Trust Services Criteria: Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy. Achieving a Type II certification requires months of active logging proof to verify your security controls match stated standards.
