Trust Services Criteria used in SOC 2
Confidentiality
Restricts access to confidential data—only authorized users can view or handle sensitive information.
Processing Integrity
Makes sure data is processed accurately and completely, without improper alteration during its lifecycle.
Privacy
Controls the handling of personal data to comply with laws and protect users' personally identifiable information (PII).
Security (Mandatory)
Ensure systems protected against unauthorized access, physical and logical. All SOC 2 reports cover principle
Availability
Ensures systems are up and running as promised, with controls around uptime, backups, and disaster recovery.

typical controls per TSC
Access to systems is controlled through role-based permissions and the principle of least privilege, ensuring users only have access necessary for their job functions. Sensitive systems require multi-factor authentication, and access rights are reviewed and updated quarterly to maintain security.
System changes follow a structured change management process, including documentation, managerial approval, peer review, and testing before deployment. Continuous monitoring is in place, with 24/7 logging and intrusion detection systems that alert security teams to suspicious activities in real time.
