Readiness Assessments for SOC 2
Why is a SOC 2 readiness assessment so critically important? Because service organizations throughout North America need to comprehensively identify and assess their entire control environment before even considering beginning an actual SOC 2 audit. Many times, deficiencies and other problem areas surface during the SOC 2 readiness assessment, requiring immediate attention or suffering the consequence of a less than satisfactory finding for your final audit report, and nobody wants that.

Determining the exact business process, along with what specific systems are going to be assessed is critically important.
