Why SOC 2 lands on your desk
- What the auditor examines
- Your controls at a point in time
- Observation window
- None: it's a single date
- What the auditor examines
- Your controls actually operating across a period
- Observation window
- Typically 3 to 12 months, with first reports commonly 3 to 6
SOC 2 usually arrives as a customer demand, not a regulation: a larger client's security questionnaire, a renewal condition, or a deal-blocking checkbox. It's an attestation, performed by a licensed CPA firm, that your controls for security (and optionally availability, confidentiality, processing integrity, and privacy) are designed and operating properly. Customers increasingly want Type II.
The sooner your controls start running, the sooner your observation window can close.
The part most companies underestimate
Passing SOC 2 takes months of controls actually operating:
- Access reviews happening
- Offboarding tickets closing
- Backups tested
- Incidents logged
That's operational work, and it's exactly the work a managed IT provider already does. When ASG runs your environment, the controls aren't a parallel project; they're how your IT already operates, and the evidence accumulates as a byproduct.
How ASG gets you through the audit
Your auditor issues the report; ASG makes sure you pass it.
We do everything before and around the audit: scope the trust criteria that matter for your deals, close the gaps, operate the controls, organize the evidence, and sit with you through the auditor's requests. If you don't have an audit firm yet, we'll help you evaluate one, and by the time fieldwork starts, there's nothing left to scramble for.
