What Is SOC 2 Type 2?

SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is an audit framework developed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA). It assesses how organizations manage customer data based on crucial trust principles:

• Security
• Availability
• Processing Integrity
• Confidentiality
• Privacy

The Type 2 certification goes beyond a snapshot in time—it requires an independent, in-depth audit of our controls and processes over an extended period, validating that they operate effectively in the real world.
