Techmagic offers customized strategies to get organizations ready for SOC 2 audit compliance. With gap analysis, continuous testing, and clear communication, our consultants make sure your systems are prepared for audit, tackling cyber threats and boosting privacy protections.
SOC 2 is not a prescriptive list of controls, tools, or processes but rather a set of criteria that must be in place to maintain strong information security. This allows us to tailor our services to your objectives and operations, ensuring compliance efforts align with unique business practices. We provide compliance services and implementation support according to SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria (TSC), consulting companies on SOC 2 Type I or SOC 2 Type II audit preparation. As a SOC 2 consultant, we efficiently implement the necessary processes and develop appropriate records/evidence of compliance.
Banks, insurance companies, and investment firms deal with sensitive financial data, making information security paramount to protect against fraud and ensure regulatory requirements.
Hospitals, clinics, and health insurers handle personal health information, requiring stringent data protection measures to follow health data protection regulations.
Businesses offering cloud storage, computing, and services, where data security is paramount.
Businesses that develop or use any technologies and platforms that collect, store and help analyze customer information.
Companies that provide technology solutions, and IT infrastructure must safeguard intellectual property and customer data against cyber threats.
The SOC 2 Type I report, also known as a point-in-time report, includes an opinion over the suitability of the design of controls at a service organization at a specific time. This initial report often serves as the starting point for subsequent type 2 reviews, providing valuable insights into the effectiveness of controls and helping you identify areas for improvement. Our consulting team is assisting in preparing for the external SOC 2 type I audit. Our goal is to ensure that the necessary measures are in place to successfully pass the audit and meet the relevant compliance requirements. We are working closely with the client to identify any potential gaps or areas of improvement, and are providing expert guidance and support to address these issues. Our ultimate objective is to help our client demonstrate their commitment to maintaining a strong security posture and to instill confidence in their stakeholders that their information is being protected effectively.
To prepare for a SOC 2 Type II audit, the service organization must have already achieved compliance with the TSC categories. A SOC 2 Type II report provides an independent assessment of a service organization's controls over some time, typically at least six months. Our consulting team is engaged in preparing for the external SOC 2 Type II audit. Our primary focus is on ensuring that our client's controls and processes are designed effectively and operating efficiently over an extended period of time. We are working closely with our client to identify any potential weaknesses or areas that require improvement and implement appropriate measures to address them.

Our audit process is conducted by experienced auditors who follow established industry standards and best practices. We conduct thorough assessments, testing, and validation of controls to ensure they are designed effectively and operating efficiently.
We follow strict security measures to protect the integrity and privacy of data during the SOC 2 audit process. Our consultants sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) and adhere to strict policies. We also use secure communication channels and encryption methods to safeguard sensitive information.
Our pricing model is based on factors such as the scope of the audit, the complexity of the systems and controls, and the level of effort required. We provide detailed pricing information during the initial scoping and planning phase.
The duration of a SOC 2 audit depends on various factors, including the size and complexity of the organization, the scope of the audit, and the readiness of the systems and controls. Typically, SOC 2 preparation can take from 3 weeks to 9 months.
SOC 2 (Service Organization Control) evaluates an organization's information security practices against the AICPA's Trust Services Criteria. The goal of our consultants is to ensure that the necessary measures are in place to successfully pass the audit and meet the relevant SOC 2 compliance requirements. We are working closely with the client to identify any potential gaps or areas of improvement, and are providing expert guidance and support to address these issues.
SOC 2 certification is crucial for IT businesses, demonstrating their commitment to managing customer data with stringent security. Governed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), it evaluates the security of the service provider across five categories: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality and privacy. Achieving SOC assures clients and user entities of the entity's ability to protect against unauthorized disclosure and meet specific privacy principles.
