What are SOC Audits?

System and Organization Controls (SOC) audits provide businesses with critical assurances about internal control practices and data security. SOC 1 and SOC 2 audits are the most widely used.

SOC 1 Audits

 

Focus on internal controls over financial reporting (ICFR), typically relevant for service organizations like payroll processors or claims administrators.

 

SOC 2 Audits

 

Evaluate controls over security, availability, confidentiality, processing integrity, and privacy–critical for organizations that handle sensitive client data.

 

Type 1 & Type 2 Reports

 

Type 1 – Assesses the design and implementation of controls at a specific point in time.

 

Type 2 – Includes all elements of a Type 1 report, plus an evaluation of the operating effectiveness of controls over a defined period.
