SOC 1 and SOC 2 Compliance Ensuring Trust, Transparency, and Data Security

In today’s digital business landscape, clients and regulators demand assurance that their data — whether financial or operational — is secure and properly managed.
That’s where SOC 1 and SOC 2 Compliance come in.

At Netfosys, we help organizations implement, audit, and maintain these compliance frameworks to strengthen trust, improve governance, and protect sensitive business information

Understanding the Difference Between SOC 1 and SOC 2

Both SOC 1 and SOC 2 are compliance reports developed by the AICPA (American Institute of Certified Public Accountants) to help service organizations demonstrate how they manage and safeguard data.
However, they serve very different purposes

SOC 1 – Focus on Financial Reporting Controls

SOC 1 compliance focuses on the internal controls related to financial reporting. It’s essential for organizations whose systems influence their clients’ financial statements, such as:

  • Payroll processors
  • Accounting service providers
  • Financial data management platforms
Types of SOC 1 Reports:

Type I: Evaluates system design and control at a specific point in time.

Type II: Tests the operating effectiveness of those controls over a period (usually 6–12 months).

SOC 2 – Focus on Data Security and Privacy

SOC 2 compliance evaluates how an organization manages data security, availability, confidentiality, and privacy — based on five Trust Services Criteria:

  1. Security – System protection from unauthorized access.
  2. Availability – Systems are operational and accessible as promised.
  3. Processing Integrity – Data is processed accurately and completely.
  4. Confidentiality – Sensitive information is handled securely.
  5. Privacy – Personal data is managed appropriately.
Types of SOC 2 Reports:

Type I: Verifies the design of security controls on a specific date.

Type II: Validates the effectiveness of those controls over time.
