A SOC 2 Type 2 audit provides an independent, third-party validation of a service organization’s information security practices based on the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ (AICPA) Trust Services Criteria. During the audit, a service organization’s non-financial reporting controls are tested, as they relate to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy of a system. The SOC 2 report delivered by KirkpatrickPrice verifies the suitability of the design and operating effectiveness of Trinity’s controls to meet the standards for these criteria.
