SOC2 Audit cost for an average-sized company starts at $15000. Pricing for a SOC 2 audit usually depends on several factors, including the Scope of SOC2 Audit, Types of Report, Business Applications, Technology Platforms, Number of Locations, Trust Services Criteria to be included in the audit, and other additional services.
On average it takes 8-12 weeks to complete a SOC2 Audit with reporting. However, the timeline also greatly depends on the time taken for implementing the remediation suggested in the gap analysis.
You will receive SOC 2 reports documenting the details of the effectiveness of the Service Organization’s system and controls. The report will detail information about how your client information is maintained securely with all necessary controls in place. Additionally, we also provide a “Certificate of Compliance” that you can show your clients and proudly hang on your office walls and conference rooms.
A SOC2 Report is only valid for a year or 12 months from the date of issue and as per the Industry Standard requirement, a SOC2 Audit must be performed annually, or after significant changes are introduced that may impact systems and control in an environment.
