We are proud to announce that TOA Global has achieved SOC 2 Type 2 compliance, further confirming our commitment to cybersecurity and effective operational management.
A System and Organizational Controls (SOC 2) Type 2 certification confirms that we have continued to meet the standards for information systems security set by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA).
This independent audit attests that our security controls are well-designed and have operated reliably over an extended period. It reinforces the SOC 2 Type 1 attestation we achieved in the third quarter of 2024.
TOA Global is an accounting outsourcing provider that helps forward-thinking accounting teams hire the experienced and dependable talent they need for their next stage of growth.
We surround our comprehensive IT infrastructure and our clients’ information with enterprise-grade security and provide platforms that make it both safe and easy for clients to connect with their offshore teams.
SOC 2 Compliance: What This Means for Our Clients
When choosing third-party service companies, such as an accounting outsourcing services provider, businesses need the assurance that a SOC 2 compliance confirms.
Operational Reliability: TOA Global’s IT infrastructure, processes, and security measures have proven to be effective over a period of monitoring by our auditor, ensuring consistent service delivery. Availability and processing integrity are among the criteria for successfully passing a SOC 2 audit.
Confidence: Our SOC 2 Type 2 attestation helps you meet your own regulatory and compliance obligations to your customers. It vouches for the confidentiality and privacy protections that are in place.
Reduced Risk: Independent verification of our security posture minimizes your third-party risk exposure.
Cybersecurity in Accounting: Comparing SOC Type 1 and Type 2
SOC 2 Type 1 confirms that key security controls are properly designed and in place at a specific point in time.
SOC 2 Type 2 takes it further by verifying—through an independent audit—that those controls operate effectively over a sustained period, typically at least three months.
“This achievement reflects our dedication to maintaining the highest standards of security and operational integrity, empowering our clients to scale their offshore teams with confidence,” said Ben Fisher, TOA Global’s Chief Information Officer.
While we continue to drive innovations and efficiency gains for our clients and team members, we also comply with the most rigorous industry standards.
