What is SOC 2 Compliance?
The gold standard for SaaS and service organization security.
SOC 2 (Service Organization Control 2) is a cybersecurity compliance framework developed by the AICPA specifically for service organizations. It evaluates your security controls against five Trust Services Criteria: Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy.
If your business handles sensitive customer data — especially in SaaS, cloud services, or B2B technology — SOC 2 certification is often required to close enterprise deals and pass vendor security assessments. It demonstrates that you have robust controls protecting customer data.
Security
Protection against unauthorized access
Availability
System uptime and accessibility
Processing Integrity
Complete and accurate processing
Confidentiality
Protection of sensitive information
Privacy
Personal data handling practices
