SOC 2 attestation in Chiang Mai at a glance
A start-up incubated at CMU STeP lands a customer abroad, and the customer's security team replies with one requirement: a SOC 2 report. That report is an attestation produced by an independent licensed CPA firm after it examines your controls against the trust services criteria; Sterling does not issue it. What Sterling does is readiness: selecting the criteria, writing policies, naming control owners, gathering evidence and closing gaps before the examiner arrives. A Type 1 report describes design at a point in time, and a Type 2 report tests operation over a period. Chiang Mai's digital and health-technology teams meet this request more often as they grow. Sterling supports readiness from its Manila office with Effivity.

SOC 2 in Chiang Mai: questions clients ask
Why do Chiang Mai start-ups get asked for SOC 2?
Because overseas customers use it to assess service providers. Buyers recognise an independent CPA firm's SOC 2 report and often accept it in place of custom questionnaires. The request is customer-driven and arises during vendor security reviews, and no Chiang Mai authority requires it.
Who issues a SOC 2 report for a Chiang Mai company?
An independent licensed CPA firm issues it after its own examination. Sterling prepares the company beforehand: criteria, policies, ownership and evidence. Keeping preparation and examination separate is what gives buyers confidence in the report, which is why a preparer never writes the opinion.
