A SOC audit is an in-depth look by a third-party organization into a business’s controls put on by either financial reporting for SOC 1 or service systems for SOC 2. These reports show your current and potential clients that their data is being taken care of properly or that your services are fully reliable and secure.
Differentiate Yourself from the Competition with a SOC Audit
Many clients in today’s business world need to know that the services they utilize are secure and handle their data properly, and some will not choose a service provider that is not SOC certified. These reports affirm the security of your systems and services, assure that your data is protected properly, and differentiates you from potentially less secure competitors. The modern business world is creating more and more stiff competition with the information accessibility provided through digital platforms, and this means that businesses need any advantage that they can receive to stand out and attract clients.
Find Potential Threats
One major benefit of receiving a SOC certification is that during the audit process and potential security holes or threats will be spotted. If a potential security threat is spotted during an audit this allows the company to address the issue and avoid the pitfall. This maximizes security once all the potential threats have been dealt with.
