At Forms on Fire, we are delighted to announce that we have successfully completed our SOC 2 Type II audit for 2024.

What is SOC 2 Reporting?

SOC 2 (Service Organization Control 2) is a framework designed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) to ensure that service providers securely manage data to protect the interests and privacy of their clients. SOC 2 reporting is based on five "trust service principles": security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.

There are two types of SOC 2 reports:



• Type I: This report describes a service organization's systems and whether their design is suitable to meet relevant trust principles.
• Type II: This report goes a step further by evaluating the operational effectiveness of these systems over a period of time.
