Overview
Customer expectations around security and assurance are increasing.
For growing organizations, demonstrating that robust security and governance practices are embedded across the business is increasingly becoming a customer requirement – and SOC 2 is often a critical part of that conversation.
But when customer expectations start driving the need for SOC 2, knowing where to begin can be challenging. What does the process actually involve? What will an auditor expect to see? How should teams prepare internally? And what processes and tools need to be in place to make the journey as effective as possible?
Join Drummond and Hicomply for a discussion designed for organizations looking to get their first SOC 2 certification, or prepare for their first audit.
Bringing together the auditor, operational and organizational perspective, this session will explore what GRC and Security leaders should know before beginning their journey, the common challenges to avoid and best practice for building the right foundations from the outset.
