Customize SOC 2 controls for your unique business

Most compliance tools turn frameworks into generic checklists. Iru generates controls that are specific to your organization, are delivered in plain language, and are mapped to your environment automatically.

  • Iru AI generates tailored controls, based on your company context and audit details
  • You can migrate existing controls over from other products, or upload your own custom control set
  • Controls become actions the moment they are created, with suggested owners and due dates

  • Evidence flows in continuously from supported devices, integrations and systems
  • Iru AI helps to identify stale, missing or potentially irrelevant evidence for you to review
  • You stay better prepared before fieldwork begins, with fewer fire drills before your SOC 2 engagement

Frequently asked
questions

Get answers to commonly asked questions

Who defines the SOC 2 reporting requirements?

SOC 2 reports are performed under American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) professional standards. 

What does SOC 2 evaluate?

Put simply, SOC 2 evaluates an organization's security controls. Specifically, this framework evaluates your controls across five Trust Services Criteria — Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy. 

Most startups start with just Security and add the others (like Availability or Confidentiality) later, depending on what their customers request.

What does a SOC 2 engagement look like?

Your management will make an assertion about the controls, and an independent CPA firm will issue their opinions. This is commonly called an audit, but it is technically an examination. 

What does a SOC 2 engagement produce?

The output of a SOC 2 engagement is a SOC 2 certificate. These are typically shared with customers and prospects under NDA.

What are the potential outcomes of a SOC 2 engagement?

It is not a binary pass/fail. The CPA firm issues one of four opinions: 

Unqualified (clean), Qualified (notable exceptions), Adverse (description not fairly presented), or Disclaimer. Exceptions are documented within the report. An unmodified opinion is damaging but you do not technically "fail."

A qualified opinion is not simply the presence of “notable exceptions”; a Type II report can contain test exceptions and still receive an unmodified opinion. The effect depends on significance and pervasiveness. Also, an adverse opinion can relate to the system description, control design, and/or operating effectiveness—not only whether the description is fairly presented.

Is SOC 2 compliance legally mandatory?

No, there is no government law requiring SOC 2. However, it is contractually mandatory for many enterprise buyers. Without it, you will likely fail vendor security assessments or get blocked by procurement teams.

What is the difference between SOC 2 Type I and Type II?

Think of Type I as a snapshot photograph and Type II as a continuous video.

  • Type I tests if your security controls are designed correctly on a specific date.
  • Type II tests how effectively those controls operated over a window of time (usually 3 to 12 months). Enterprise buyers usually demand a Type II report.
How long is a SOC 2 report valid for?

A SOC 2 report covers a specific historical window, and buyers typically consider it valid for 1 year from the end of the audit period. A Bridge Letter (or Gap Letter) is a document you sign covering the gap between the end date of your last report and the start of your new audit cycle, reassuring buyers that your controls haven't lapsed.

Can Iru certify us, or issue a SOC 2 report?

No compliance software can issue a final SOC 2 report. By law, a SOC 2 audit must be performed by an independent, licensed CPA firm accredited by the AICPA. Our platform acts as the engine room—it connects to your systems, automatically gathers the evidence, manages your policies, and hands it over to the auditor on a silver platter to save you time and money. If you would like to work with one of the auditors that we partner with, please reach out to your rep.
