The SOC 1 (Service Organization Controls) report aligns with auditing standards SSAE 18 and ISAE 3402.

It offers guidance for auditors evaluating a service organization's internal controls relevant to customer financial reporting. The SOC 1 Type II report specifically assesses the design and effectiveness of IT controls on Board Cloud in achieving control objectives over a specified period. This audit is performed annually by an independent third-party auditor, and the report is available on request.

SOC 2 Type II

SOC 2 Type II reports assess controls at a service organization that are unrelated to financial reporting. The focus is on standards important to the security, availability, or processing integrity of the service organization’s system, as well as the confidentiality and privacy. It covers one or more trust principles from the Trust Services Principles and Criteria (TSP) maintained by the AICPA. The report provides detailed descriptions of the tests conducted by the auditor and the results. Board Cloud’s SOC 2 Type II report specifically focuses on security and availability controls and is available upon request.

SOC 3

The SOC 3 report is a public report, and it is a short version of the SOC 2 Type II attestation report. It provides users and interested parties with information about the controls at the service organization related to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, or privacy. The Board Cloud’s SOC 3 report is created by the third-party company that performs the SOC 2 audit and can be downloaded from the following URL: Board International Security & Compliance.
