SOC 2 Compliance Roadmap: Freight Software SOC 2 Explained

πŸ“š What Is SOC 2 Compliance?

SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is an auditing standard developed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA). It verifies that a company has robust controls in place to protect client data β€” especially in areas like:

  • πŸ” Security

  • 🌐 Availability

  • βš™οΈ Processing Integrity

  • πŸ•΅οΈβ€β™‚οΈ Confidentiality

  • πŸ‘€ Privacy

In simple terms, SOC 2 gives you assurance that your data β€” and your customers’ data β€” is being handled with integrity and responsibility.

For freight software companies, this isn’t just a badge β€” it’s a foundation for operational excellence and client trust.
