Why Your Business Needs SOC 2
80% of enterprise procurement teams now require SOC 2 before signing.
Series A and beyond — investors expect SOC 2 as proof of operational maturity.
Differentiate from competitors who don't have it — close deals faster.
SOC 2 controls directly reduce the likelihood and impact of data breaches.
SOC 2 Type I vs. Type II — Which Do You Need?
SOC 2 Type I
A point-in-time assessment — confirms that your controls are designed appropriately as of a specific date.
- Faster to achieve (8–12 weeks)
- Good for early-stage companies and first SOC 2
- Satisfies initial enterprise vendor checks
- Does not prove controls work over time
SOC 2 Type II ⭐ Most Requested
An operational assessment over a period (6–12 months) — confirms controls are operating effectively over time.
- Gold standard — required by most enterprise clients
- Required for government contracts and regulated industries
- Demonstrates operational security maturity
- Renewed annually — ongoing trust signal
