What is a SOC 2 Type 2 certification?
A SOC 2 Type 2 certification is a service organization control audit that evaluates the security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy of a cloud-based service provider's systems and data. It is designed to help organizations ensure that the service provider they are working with is protecting the security, availability, and confidentiality of their sensitive data.
The SOC 2 Type 2 certification covers the following five trust service criteria:
- Security: The service provider must have processes and procedures in place to ensure the security of the organization's systems, data, and information.
- Availability: The service provider must have processes and procedures in place to ensure the availability of the organization's systems, data, and information.
- Processing Integrity: The service provider must have processes and procedures in place to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the organization's systems, data, and information.
- Confidentiality: The service provider must have processes and procedures in place to ensure the confidentiality of the organization's systems, data, and information.
- Privacy: The service provider must have processes and procedures in place to ensure the privacy of the organization's systems, data, and information.
The SOC 2 Type 2 certification is an assurance to organizations that their service provider is taking appropriate steps to protect the security, availability, and confidentiality of their sensitive data.
