SOC 2.0 Certification
(Coming Soon!)
KEY FEATURES
Encryption at Rest and in Transit
To meet SOC 2.0 standards, websites must implement strong encryption protocols for both data at rest and data in transit. This means using TLS 1.2 or higher (ideally TLS 1.3) to secure all web traffic and encrypting sensitive data stored in databases, file systems, and backups. Effective key management practices are essential, including rotating keys regularly and restricting access based on roles. These measures ensure that even if data is intercepted or accessed improperly, it remains unreadable and protected.
Access Controls and Identity Management
Robust access control mechanisms are critical for SOC 2.0 compliance. Websites should enforce role-based access permissions that limit user capabilities based on their responsibilities. Integration with identity management systems such as Single Sign-On (SSO) and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) helps verify user identities and prevent unauthorized access. These controls not only protect sensitive data but also provide audit trails that are essential for compliance verification.
Data Classification and Policy Enforcement
SOC 2.0 requires organizations to understand and manage their data according to its sensitivity. Websites should implement automated data classification systems that tag information as Confidential, Internal, or Public. Based on these classifications, policies can be enforced to determine how data is stored, accessed, and transmitted. This reduces the risk of accidental exposure and ensures that sensitive data is handled in accordance with regulatory and organizational standards.

FAQs
What is SOC 2.0 certification and why is it important?
SOC 2.0 (Systems and Organization Controls 2) is a security and compliance framework that is used by banks, governments, and healthcare organizations. It evaluates how well an organization safeguards customer data based on five Trust Services Criteria: Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy. Achieving SOC 2.0 certification demonstrates a company’s commitment to data protection. This means that only you have access to your data.
What are the SOC 2.0 five Trust Services Criteria (TSC)?
The TSCs are the foundation of SOC 2.0 audits:
- Security (mandatory): Protection against unauthorized access.
- Availability: System uptime and performance.
- Processing Integrity: Accuracy and completeness of data processing.
- Confidentiality: Protection of sensitive information.
- Privacy: Proper handling of personal data.
What are some common controls required for SOC 2.0?
Typical controls include:
- Encryption of data at rest and in transit.
- Role-based access controls and MFA.
- Change management procedures.
- Incident response plans.
- Continuous monitoring and logging.
Is SOC 2.0 certification legally required?
No, SOC 2.0 is not a legal requirement. In fact, most websites do not even attempt to comply with SOC 2.0. You should make sure that your data is secured, as demonstrated by SOC 2.0 certification.
