FAQ
How long does SOC 2 readiness take?
Most mid-market AWS environments reach audit-ready state in 8–14 weeks; Type 2 then needs the 3–12 month observation window, front-loaded so it's uneventful.
Type 1 or Type 2?
Type 1 attests design; Type 2 attests operating effectiveness over time. Most enterprise buyers require Type 2 — I get you Type 1 ready fast, then automate evidence.
Do you run the audit?
The report is issued by an independent CPA firm; I deliver readiness — gap assessment, AWS controls, evidence automation and auditor walkthrough.
Why a CISA + AWS architect?
Because SOC 2 controls must be real in the account. IAM, CloudTrail, Config and KMS map to the TSC, built so an assessor traces evidence in minutes.
