SOC 2 attestation in Mumbai at a glance
When an overseas buyer sends a security questionnaire to a Mumbai software or outsourcing team, the quickest answer is an independent report, and SOC 2 is the one most requested of SEEPZ-based and SEZ-campus providers. SOC 2 reports on controls against the Trust Services Criteria, with security always in scope and availability, processing integrity, confidentiality and privacy added where relevant. Work is led from Sterling's Mumbai office, with visits to your premises and online sessions in between; Effivity and Sterling Academy come with the engagement. Opinions come from the independent CPA firm you engage, and Sterling's role is readiness: controls designed, operated and evidenced before the examination.

SOC 2 in Mumbai: questions clients ask
Why do Mumbai providers seek SOC 2 reports?
Overseas clients ask SEEPZ-based and SEZ-campus providers to evidence security controls, and an independent report answers many questionnaires at once. Hosting operators at the planned Taloja park will face the same ask. A licensed CPA firm issues the report; Sterling prepares your controls and evidence.
Is SOC 2 a certification?
No. It is an attestation report by an independent licensed CPA firm. There is no pass or fail certificate, only the examiner's opinion and any exceptions noted. Sterling helps you prepare but does not attest. Clients read the report itself. A Sterling consultant can talk this through with your team.
