  • B. SOC 1 Type 2
  • C. SOC 2 Type 2
  • D. SOC 1 Type 1
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C 🗳️
The SOC 3 is the least detailed, so the provider is not concerned about revealing it. The SOC 1 Types 1 and 2 are about financial reporting and not relevant. The
SOC 2 Type 2 is much more detailed and will most likely be kept closely held by the provider.

Selected Answer: C
A SOC 2 Type 2 audit report is the most beneficial for a cloud customer because it evaluates a cloud provider’s security controls over time, specifically covering the Trust Services Criteria (TSC): ✔ Security – Protection against unauthorized access. ✔ Availability – Ensuring systems are operational. ✔ Processing Integrity – Accurate and reliable data processing. ✔ Confidentiality – Controlled access to sensitive data. ✔ Privacy – Compliance with privacy regulations. 🔹 Why It’s Unlikely the Provider Will Share It? SOC 2 Type 2 reports contain detailed security control assessments, which are often confidential and shared only with existing customers under NDAs. Cloud providers prefer to provide SOC 3 reports, which are public summaries of SOC 2 findings.
