What you get for SOC 2

The same platform every framework runs on, pointed at this one: your answers, your evidence, your documents.

Trust Services Criteria mappingEvery questionnaire answer maps to the Security criteria, with Availability and Confidentiality added when your buyers require them.
Policies drafted from your answersThirteen policies written from what you told us about your stack and team, not a template with your logo dropped in.
Evidence binder and system descriptionScreenshots, exports and access reviews collected per control, plus the system description the CPA firm reads first.

How SOC 2 runs here

In this order, with the handoff to the certification body at the end.

  1. Step 1

    Answer the questionnaire

    about 15 minutes for the half that returns your score. You describe your infrastructure, people and vendors once, and every later artifact is built from those answers.

  2. Step 2

    Review the gap analysis

    A deterministic pass compares your answers to each criterion and lists what is missing, so you know the work before you commit to an examination.

  3. Step 3

    Close gaps and build the binder

    Policies are drafted for you to edit and approve, then evidence is collected against each control until the binder is complete.

  4. Step 4

    Hand off to the CPA firm

    An independent licensed U.S. CPA firm examines the package. Type 1 covers a single date; Type 2 covers an observation period, usually three to twelve months.

What SOC 2 costs

One entry, paid once, then the Type 2 term. The CPA firm engagement fee for the Type 1 examination and for your first Type 2 audit is already inside those figures.

$2,000 one time

Or $4,000 one time for that same onboarding with the SOC 2 Type 1 examination and report, the independent partner auditor engagement fee included. Start with onboarding and the Type 1 can be added later for $2,000. Type 2 is then $600 per month on a 12-month term, and your first SOC 2 Type 2 audit is included in the term.

Platforms and audit firms publish $7,500 to $60,000 for the same first year.

Type 2 requires an observation period before the CPA firm can issue the report. The first Type 2 audit is included in the 12-month term but starts only once that period has run.

cybersoftware is not a CPA firm. SOC 2 examinations are performed by independent licensed U.S. CPA firms.

SOC 2 questions

What buyers ask, and what the work actually involves.

You choose one entry and pay it once: platform onboarding at $2,000, or $4,000 for the same onboarding with the SOC 2 Type 1 examination and the CPA firm engagement fee included. Start with onboarding and you can add the Type 1 later for $2,000. Type 2 is then $600 per month on a 12-month term, and the first Type 2 audit is included in that term.
An independent licensed U.S. CPA firm. cybersoftware is not a CPA firm and does not sign anything. It prepares your company so the examination goes smoothly.
Type 1 shows your controls were designed properly on a single date and usually answers a first security questionnaire. Type 2 shows they operated over a period, and most enterprise buyers want it by renewal.
No. It is an attestation report issued by a CPA firm under CPA attestation standards. You share it under a non-disclosure agreement with buyers who ask, and it is refreshed each year.
Almost certainly not. SOC 1 covers internal control over financial reporting and exists for payroll processors, claims administrators and anyone whose service feeds a client ledger. If your buyers ask about breaches and uptime rather than their financial statements, SOC 2 is the one.
