In short

SOC 2 attestation in Coimbatore at a glance

A Coimbatore software firm gets a purchase intent from a US enterprise, and the vendor-risk team replies with a request for its SOC 2 report. The report is an attestation by a licensed CPA firm against the trust services criteria: security always, with availability, processing integrity, confidentiality or privacy if chosen. Type 1 speaks to design on a date; Type 2 tests operation over a period. With 80+ capability centres in the city and a TIDEL Park building for IT tenants, the request is no longer rare. Many firms already hold ISO/IEC 27001, which overlaps heavily. Sterling does not attest. It scopes the criteria, builds controls, gathers evidence in Effivity and prepares staff for the auditor's walkthroughs.
