At Grant Thornton, we support our clients in obtaining SOC 1, SOC 2 and SOC 3 reports, enabling them to provide assurance to their clients and partners regarding the design, implementation and operation of adequate internal controls, highlighting the organisation’s commitment to the highest standards of control and security.
SOC (Service Organisation Control) reports are the result of applying a set of audit standards and guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) expressed in SSAE 18 (Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements No. 18).
What are the differences between SOC 1, SOC 2 and SOC 3?
SOC 1 assesses internal controls related to the financial information of your clients. SOC 2 focuses on the organisation’s non-financial controls, covering the following pillars: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality and data privacy.
SOC 3 is a general public report that assesses the security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality and privacy internal controls of a service organisation, without including technical or confidential details.

Why is it important to have a SOC Report?
Certification enables organisations that provide services and handle sensitive client information, such as cloud service providers (SaaS), data centres, financial services, healthcare centres, marketing, and accounting, tax or payroll outsourcing, among others, to:
âś“ Demonstrate the security of a company’s control systems.
âś“ Present the report to their clients, reducing the need for them to invest internal resources in auditing the organization as a vendor.
âś“ Win new clients. Nowadays, many companies require these certifications from those submitting service proposals.
