SOC 2 Certification Services (Type I & II)
In a data-driven world, trust and security define the credibility of every service provider.
Whether you handle customer data, cloud services, or SaaS platforms, achieving SOC 2 compliance proves your organization follows strict information security practices.
At Aadit Technologies, we guide businesses through the SOC 2 certification process from readiness assessments to audits, remediation, and continuous monitoring. Our approach ensures your systems, processes, and controls meet the AICPA’s Trust Service Criteria (TSC) for security, availability, confidentiality, processing integrity, and privacy.
What Is SOC 2 Compliance?
SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is an auditing framework developed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA).
It ensures that service organizations securely manage customer data and uphold privacy across operations.
SOC 2 reports demonstrate compliance across five Trust Service Criteria (TSC):
- Security – Protect systems against unauthorized access
- Availability – Ensure systems operate reliably and on time
- Confidentiality – Safeguard sensitive data
- Processing Integrity – Deliver accurate and authorized data processing
- Privacy – Protect personal data through collection, usage, and disposal
A SOC 2 certification is essential for SaaS providers, IT service firms, and data processors — proving your commitment to security and compliance to clients, regulators, and partners.

Difference Between Type I and Type II
SOC 2 reports are classified into two types – Type I and Type II, each serving distinct compliance goals.
SOC 2 Type I – Design of Controls
- Evaluates your organization’s security controls at a specific point in time
- Focuses on the design effectiveness of your controls
- Suitable for businesses preparing for their first SOC 2 audit
Example:
A Type I report validates that your access management or encryption controls are well-defined and implemented.
SOC 2 Type II – Operational Effectiveness
- Assesses the operational performance of your controls over a period (typically 6–12 months)
- Focuses on long-term effectiveness and consistency
- Required for organizations serving large enterprises or handling high data volumes
Example:
A Type II report confirms that your incident response or log monitoring processes operate reliably over time.
SOC 2 Readiness Assessment
Before beginning the official SOC 2 audit, Aadit Technologies conducts a detailed readiness assessment to evaluate your current controls and identify compliance gaps.
Our readiness phase includes:
- Scoping your environment (systems, data, users)
- Reviewing security policies and governance practices
- Mapping controls to the five Trust Service Criteria
- Identifying gaps or weaknesses
- Developing an actionable remediation roadmap
This step helps minimize surprises during the official SOC 2 audit and ensures your organization is fully prepared.
Controls & Audit Preparation
Once the readiness phase is complete, we help you prepare documentation and evidence for auditors, ensuring you meet every control requirement effectively.
Our audit preparation includes:
- Drafting and reviewing security policies and procedures
- Aligning access, encryption, and monitoring practices
- Preparing evidence logs and audit trails
- Conducting mock audits and validation checks
If your business already runs a 24×7 monitoring environment, integrating with Managed SOC Services helps automate log collection and incident response for SOC 2 compliance.
Remediation Support & Monitoring
Compliance doesn’t end with certification — it’s a continuous process.
Aadit Technologies provides ongoing remediation and monitoring to ensure your controls remain effective throughout the audit cycle.
Our team:
- Closes identified gaps during readiness
- Implements new security measures aligned with audit feedback
- Offers periodic control reviews and re-testing
- Integrates your SOC 2 processes with ISO 27001 and GDPR compliance frameworks
For businesses looking to align multiple certifications, our ISO 27001 Certification Services ensure a unified, organization-wide approach to information security.
