SOC stands for System and Organization Controls. A SOC audit is an independent assessment done by the CPA that evaluates how an organization manages the information & cyber security practice for data & System. SOC reports provide independent assurance—by a licensed CPA. It provides assurance that the service providers for critical processes and data handling firm has adequate controls in place to protect sensitive information and ensure operational integrity.
A SOC audit is an attestation conducted as per the standards of AICPA guidelines to evaluate the design of security framework and maintaining effectiveness over the time period in the form of Type 1 & Type 2 respectively about the service organization’s controls. The SOC report provides management’s description of the system and the independent CPA opinion. SOC helps stakeholders and auditors have trust in outsourced services by validating the controls
SOC reports can be provided in three verticals—SOC 1, SOC 2, and SOC 3 with different aspects and objectives.

These reports are meant for user organisation, management, and their financial auditors. It applies on the organisation such as payroll processors, payment platforms and other services that impact customers’ financial statements.
