What is SOC 2?
SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is a framework from the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) that evaluates how an organization manages data across five Trust Service Criteria: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.
Why SOC 2 Matters for MSPs
SOC 2 has become a baseline requirement for trust in managed services. When clients hand you their infrastructure and data, a SOC 2 report is increasingly how they validate that you can be trusted — and many enterprise buyers now require it before they will even consider a vendor.
