Event Details
Audits of "SOC" (Service Organization Controls) have been governed starting on May 1, 2017 by the application of "SSAE" (Statement of Standards for Attestation Engagements) 18. This new AICPA Standard replaces SSAE 16, just as SSAE 16 replaced SAS 70. This new standard will require the users of these reports to change their compliance programs to fit the new reporting standards.
