Understanding SOC 2 Type II
SOC 2 Type II is an in-depth audit report that evaluates the operational effectiveness of an organization’s security controls over a specified period, typically 6-12 months. It is one of the two types of Service Organization Control (SOC) 2 reports established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). Unlike SOC 2 Type I, which assesses design, SOC 2 Type II measures how well the controls are working in practice.
At CORL, SOC 2 Type II compliance is a core component of the CORL Cleared™ certification, which ensures vendors meet rigorous security standards tailored to the healthcare sector. Meditology, a trusted provider of SOC 2 examinations, brings extensive expertise in healthcare security and compliance, helping vendors achieve SOC 2 Type II status as part of their broader commitment to safeguarding PHI and meeting regulatory standards.
