Do I have to get SOC 2 Type 1 before pursuing a SOC 2 Type 2?

  • Updated

You will not need to pursue SOC 2 Type 1 before getting a SOC 2 Type 2 report because they are stand-alone reports. A company may choose to go straight for SOC 2 Type 2 audit without completing a SOC 2 Type 1.

Please contact your Customer Success Manager if you are unsure about which audit type to pursue.
