Gauge your SOC 2 readiness
A SOC 2 audit examines the controls that protect customer data, and going in unprepared wastes time and money. This interactive checklist helps you gauge your SOC 2 evidence readiness, so you know where you stand before the auditor arrives.
Why readiness assessment matters
SOC 2 is about demonstrating that your controls are designed well and operating effectively, and the evidence for that, policies, logs, records, has to exist and be organised before an audit. Assessing readiness surfaces the gaps, a control with no evidence, a policy not yet written, while there is still time to close them. Going into an audit without this preparation leads to findings that could have been avoided, so a readiness check is one of the highest-value steps in the process.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is SOC 2?
An audit framework that examines whether an organisation’s controls protecting customer data are well designed and operating effectively over time.
Why assess readiness before an audit?
Because SOC 2 requires evidence that controls exist and operate, and finding gaps before the audit lets you close them rather than incurring avoidable findings.
What kind of evidence does SOC 2 need?
Policies, records, logs and other proof that controls are in place and working, organised so an auditor can verify them.
Is this a substitute for an actual audit?
No. It is a readiness aid. The audit itself is performed by a qualified auditor; this helps you prepare for it.
Is my data uploaded?
No. The checklist runs entirely in your browser.
