SOC Reports
If your company provides technology services, cloud storage, or data management, you’ve likely encountered this requirement: “Send us your SOC Report.”
📌 But why do large companies ask for it?
Organizations that handle sensitive information aim to minimize risks when working with third parties. A SOC Report (System and Organization Controls) ensures that your company operates within a well-controlled environment and complies with data security and protection standards.
🔎 3 reasons why large companies require a SOC Report:
- To ensure the security and protection of their sensitive data:
Large corporations manage significant volumes of confidential information, including customer, financial, and strategic data. Requiring a SOC report allows them to validate that their providers have proper controls in place for security, availability, confidentiality, processing integrity, and privacy. - To comply with their own audit and regulatory requirements:
Corporations are subject to strict regulatory frameworks (such as GDPR, HIPAA, SOX, etc.) and must demonstrate that their vendors follow best practices. A SOC report issued by an independent auditor supports internal and external audit processes and reduces the risk of legal or reputational non-compliance. - To reduce reputational and operational risk when outsourcing services:
When a company outsources critical functions (like cloud services, payment processing, or data management), it must ensure the vendor is not a weak link in its control chain. The SOC report acts as a risk management tool by demonstrating that the vendor operates under trusted standards.
