The Dallas Regional Chamber lists a deep technology sector, with data-centre operators, SaaS firms and consultancies, as well as the finance and health customers who procure from them. SOC 2 is an attestation by a licensed CPA firm on controls relevant to security and, as selected, availability, confidentiality, processing integrity and privacy, with a Type 2 report testing operation across a period. Sterling scopes the criteria, closes gaps and prepares evidence from its New York office, with Effivity and Sterling Academy included; the CPA firm attests.
