FAQs
What is SOC 1?
SOC 1 is an audit that evaluates how your services impact your clients’ financial reporting. While SOC 2 focuses on security, SOC 1 specifically ensures that the processes and systems you use to handle client financial data are accurate, reliable, and secure. It is the “financial integrity” report for service providers.
Why are SOC 1 financial reporting objectives relevant to software companies?
If your software handles transactions, payroll, or financial data for a publicly traded company, they are likely required by law (such as Sarbanes-Oxley) to prove their systems are secure. Your SOC 1 report provides the “bulletproof” evidence they need to satisfy their own auditors and regulators.
SOC 1 vs SOC 2: What’s the difference?
The difference lies in the purpose:
SOC 1 is for financial integrity. It’s required when your services affect a client’s financial statements (e.g., payroll, loan processing).
SOC 2 is for data security. It’s required when you store or process any type of sensitive data (e.g., cloud hosting, CRM).
Type 1 and Type 2 report: what’s the difference?
Type 1 is a snapshot. It confirms that your controls are designed correctly on a specific date. It’s often the first step to show you have a solid foundation.
Type 2 is a video. It confirms that your controls actually worked consistently over a period of time (usually 6–12 months). This is the industry standard that most enterprise clients demand.
Can you fail SOC 1?
SOC 1 is not a “pass/fail” test. Instead, the auditor provides an opinion. If they find issues, they list them as “exceptions.” You then have the opportunity to include a response (Section V) explaining how you’ve fixed or addressed those issues. The goal is transparency, not just a perfect score.
