SOC audits will provide your organization with an attestation that the system or service you provide to your clients in the AWS environment is secure, trustworthy, and prepared to handle risks. A SOC attestation report validates your organization's commitment to delivering high quality, secure services to your clients. SOC 2 is the standard used by CPAs to evaluate, test, and report on the effectiveness of the service organization’s internal controls as they relate to the AICPA’s Trust Services Criteria: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. Testing provides assurance that you’re using AWS services properly, such as CloudTrail, CloudWatch, Security Groups, EC2, EKS and Security Hub.

SOC 2 compliance affirms the security of your services and gives your organization the ability to provide clients with evidence that your internal controls are operating efficiently, effectively, and according to the standards set by the AICPA from an independent auditor who has seen your internal controls in place. Benchmarks are leveraged to ensure you’ve configured your AWS environment according to the best practices published by AWS, the Center for Internet AWS Foundations, etc.

A SOC 1 engagement is an audit of the internal controls which a service organization has implemented to protect client data, specifically internal controls over financial reporting. SOC 1 audits were developed by the AICPA and follow the Statements on Standards for Attestation Engagements No. 18 (SSAE 18).

A SOC 1 audit provides reasonable assurance to your publicly traded clients and their auditors that you have implemented effective internal controls over financial reporting. These internal controls include cloud controls provided by AWS and configured by you.
