Common questions

SOC 2 — answered directly.

What is SOC 2 Type II?

SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is an auditing standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). SOC 2 Type II reports evaluate whether an organization's security controls are designed correctly (Type I) and whether they operated effectively over a period of time — typically 6–12 months (Type II). It is the industry standard for demonstrating security posture to enterprise customers.

Which trust service criteria does Solar1's SOC 2 cover?
