SOC 2 Report is an attestation report that measures how well a company adheres to specific security and privacy controls. The report is used by Organisations to show their commitment to protecting customer data. The SOC 2 report is based on the AICPA’s Trust Services Principles and Criteria. The report evaluates a company’s controls in five key areas: Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality and Privacy.
A SOC 2 report is an independent third-party assessment of an Organisation’s data management and security practices. The report validates that an Organisation has implemented robust information security controls to protect the privacy, confidentiality, integrity, and availability of its data.
Getting a SOC 2 report is not a trivial task, and it is not something that you should do yourself.

Type 1 SOC 2 reports provide a snapshot of an Organisation's controls at a specific point in time. They are typically used to provide assurance to clients or customers that the Organisation has adequate controls in place.
Type 2 SOC 2 reports are an evaluation of a service Organisation’s controls. The report is based on the AICPA’s Trust Services Principles and Criteria, which are used to measure how well a service Organisation meets the security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy principles. A Type 2 report requires a service auditor to perform tests of the service Organisation’s controls over a period of time.
SOC 2 audits are performed by qualified, independent parties. These parties are called "auditors," and they act as neutral third-party evaluators of service providers' controls and processes. They are accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) to perform audits of service organizations' adherence to the SOC 2 standard.
If you're a company that handles sensitive information or data, and you want the public to know how seriously you take your security and privacy obligations, then you need a SOC 2 Report.
Neumetric's SOC 2 Report Service ensures that your organisation will receive the Certification Report in 9 months (depending on the size of the Organization).
