Leading SOC 2 Compliance at Your Organization? This Course is for You!

September 20, 2022

“When I grow up I want to be a singer. No, wait, I mean, a professional basketball player. Or, uh, actually a pilot!” This doesn’t sound too off – most kids will say they want to grow up to be sports stars, famous actors/actresses, firemen, or even astronauts. 

But maybe, just maybe, you land up working for a SaaS company that has selected you to lead the SOC 2 compliance process! Problem is, you have no prior experience or knowledge in what it takes to get ready for the audit to be SOC 2 compliant. This is where you’ll need to become a SOC 2 Master Lead Implementer!

SOC 2 is a superhero of the security framework and auditing world.  With SaaS companies dealing with sensitive customer data, most of their customers and potential customers today require them to be SOC 2 compliant. What does that mean? Let’s break it down for you:

SOC 2 (Service Organization Controls 2) is a set of compliance requirements geared toward technology-based companies that use cloud-based storage of customer data. SOC 2 is both an audit procedure and criteria, as well as a voluntary compliance standard that specifies how an organization should manage internal controls. The AICPA (The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants) developed a set of criteria to be used when evaluating an organization’s design and operating effectiveness of controls relevant to the Trust Service Principles (Security, Availability, Confidentiality, Processing Integrity, and/or Privacy).

Customers may be more inclined to do business with you as a result of being SOC 2 compliant. By meeting SOC 2 standards, you demonstrate to potential customers that your company meets the most rigorous standards of security and service. 

So many SaaS companies need SOC 2 today but the process is nothing short of hellish. It’s complicated and time-consuming and most of us know absolutely nothing about this framework and why it’s important. 

That’s why we’re super excited to announce the launch of the SOC 2 Academy, a free SOC 2 masterclass that provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals surrounding the cloud security framework SOC 2. Geared towards CISOs, CTOs, compliance officers, or anyone that is leading SOC 2 in their organizations, the SOC 2 Academy will assist in starting their journey toward SOC 2 compliance. These fundamentals relate to how an organization manages and maintains its information and its security, as well as the protection of users’ privacy.
