SOC for Cybersecurity and SOC 2 are both AICPA reporting frameworks, but they serve different audiences. SOC for Cybersecurity is a general-use report designed to assess an organization’s overall cybersecurity risk management program, providing assurance to a broad range of stakeholders. In contrast, SOC 2 is a restricted-use report focused on service organizations, evaluating their adherence to Trust Services Criteria (TSC). While SOC 2 primarily addresses service providers’ controls for data security and privacy, SOC for Cybersecurity is applicable to any organization looking to demonstrate robust cybersecurity practices. Both reports enhance trust but serve different compliance needs.
