FAQ

Common questions, answered.

Do you issue the SOC 2 report?

No. A SOC 2 report is issued by an independent licensed CPA firm. VVnT SeQuor prepares you for the audit — scoping, gap assessment, control implementation and evidence — and coordinates with the CPA firm you appoint.

Should we start with SOC 2 Type I or Type II?

If a buyer will accept a Type I to move a deal forward, Type I followed by Type II is a sensible path. Most enterprise buyers ultimately expect Type II, so we plan the observation window from the start. Type I vs. Type II explained.

How long does SOC 2 Type II readiness take?

Readiness depends on current maturity; it is followed by an observation window that commonly runs between three and twelve months before the audit. First reports often use a shorter window.

Can SOC 2 and ISO 27001 share one control set?

Yes. We map one control set and one body of evidence to both the SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria and ISO 27001 Annex A, so you avoid duplicate work. VVnT SeQuor is itself ISO 27001 certified.

Do you work with SaaS companies outside India?

Yes. We prepare SaaS and IT-services companies in India and abroad — including the USA, Canada, the UAE, Singapore, Japan and Australia — for SOC 2 audits by their chosen CPA firm.

How much does SOC 2 readiness cost?

SOC 2 readiness support starts from INR 2,00,000, depending on scope, Trust Services Criteria and current maturity. The CPA firm’s audit fee is separate and paid to the firm that issues your report.
