SOC Services
Providing the assurance your data deserves: Delivering peace of mind through SOC compliance.
What Is a SOC Report?
System and Organization Controls (SOC) examination reports provide assurance over the effectiveness of an organization’s controls related to security, confidentiality, availability, processing integrity, and privacy. Many service organizations undergo SOC examinations to demonstrate a commitment to safeguarding sensitive data.
These reports provide valuable information to customers reliant on third-party vendors for services such as payroll processing, claims processing, and data hosting. Stakeholders can obtain assurance regarding service providers’ controls through a SOC 1, SOC 2, or SOC 3 report. Control attestations such as SOC reports are becoming a standard expectation when clients evaluate potential service providers.
EisnerAmper’s Assurance Technology and Control Services Group includes experienced CPAs and audit professionals performing hundreds of annual SOC examinations. We perform all forms of control attestations, including SOC 1, SOC 2, SOC 2+, and SOC 3, across various industries. Our highly credentialed team performs each SOC engagement efficiently and effectively and delivers clear reporting. This allows you to provide timely assurance to business partners, government agencies, and customers and sets you apart from competitors who do not provide SOC reports.

SOC Audit and Consulting Services
Type 1 and Type 2 SOC Examinations
A Type 1 SOC examination reports on the accuracy of management’s description of the service organization’s system and the suitability of the control design to achieve the stated objectives as of a specified date.
A Type 2 SOC examination covers all the areas and assertions of a Type 1 examination but also provides assurance over the operating effectiveness of controls throughout a specified period.
SOC Consulting Services
SOC consulting services are designed to help organizations prepare for a first-time SOC 1 or SOC 2 examination (or any other AICPA-sanctioned control attestation service). The specific objectives within a SOC consulting engagement include:
- Identifying the control objectives (SOC 1) or service commitments and system requirements (SOC 2);
- Identifying controls in place to meet those objectives or commitments;
- Evaluating the design effectiveness and implementation of the identified controls;
- Identifying any gaps or weaknesses; and
- Developing an action plan to remedy the gaps and weaknesses identified.
