SOC 2 compliance is increasingly demanded by enterprise clients — especially US-based companies evaluating Indian SaaS providers, BPOs, and IT service companies. Without a SOC 2 Type II report, you lose enterprise deals. It demonstrates that your organization has effective controls for security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.

SOC 2 is based on AICPA Trust Services Criteria covering 5 categories — Security (mandatory), Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy (optional). Type I assesses control design at a point in time; Type II evaluates operating effectiveness over 3-12 months. The audit is performed by licensed CPA firms.

We help you select relevant Trust Services Criteria, implement controls, establish evidence collection workflows, and prepare for the CPA audit. We recommend automation platforms to maintain continuous compliance and reduce audit preparation effort. Typical advisory: ₹8-30 lakh; audit costs: ₹5-20 lakh additionally.
