SOC 2 assessment

VeriProof saves an assessment for six SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria. It lines up what an application recorded with the control evidence your organization holds, for access, monitoring, and change.

A saved assessment is not an auditor’s opinion or a SOC 2 report. Your organization defines its system boundary, and your auditor evaluates its controls.

For VeriProof’s own report status, see SOC 2 status.

What the assessment covers

The criteria come from the 2017 Trust Services Criteria, with the revised points of focus from 2022. VeriProof describes each one in its own words.

CriterionRecorded application factsOrganization evidence
CC6.1: Logical access securityCurrent access grants and attributed actorsAccess control policy and proof that restrictions operate
CC6.2: Registration and authorization of usersCurrent access grantsProvisioning procedure and approval records
CC6.3: Access modification and removalCurrent access grantsAccess reviews and records of changed or removed access
CC7.2: System monitoringVerified activity records, active rules, and rule checksMonitoring procedures and the analysis of anomalies
CC7.3: Security event evaluationArchive digests and rule checksEvent evaluation procedure, conclusions, and follow-up
CC8.1: Change managementExact active rule versionsChange procedure with authorization, testing, and approval records

Each criterion also needs a system-boundary decision. It records the system description that includes this AI system and whether the criterion applies. VeriProof does not infer it from the framework you assigned, session volume, or the application’s data tier.

Review a saved assessment

Open the application

Open the application, then select Compliance. SOC 2 must be one of the application’s frameworks.

Select the assessment period

Choose the dates to review. The assessment uses activity that started in that period.

Open the SOC 2 assessment

Select Review SOC 2 assessment. Each criterion lists its recorded facts, what is missing, and the next step.

Add organization evidence

Select Organization evidence. An Administrator or Compliance Officer adds a PDF for a criterion and requests a review. A reviewer approves or rejects it. The system boundary is reviewed separately.

Export the assessment

Download the assessment record or send the SOC 2 evidence summary to a connected GRC platform such as Vanta or ComplyAssistant. Verify the archive before you deliver it.

Requirement states

Each requirement shows one state, so you can see who acts next.

StateWhat it means
Organization evidence neededNo evidence is approved yet. Add a PDF and request a review.
Evidence awaiting approvalA reviewer approves or rejects the submitted evidence, then VeriProof reassesses the requirement.
Accountable review neededA recorded review is waiting for an accountable reviewer to approve or reject it.
MetThe organization evidence has a current approval.
Not assessed for these datesThe requirement has no result for the selected dates. Run an assessment for them.
Observations onlyVeriProof summarizes recorded activity for the framework but does not assess the requirement.

Partially met, Not met, and Contradicted by recorded activity are decided results. Open the requirement to see the evidence behind them.

Resolve rule problems

When an application has no active rule, or its rule checks fail, VeriProof opens one work item for that problem. The HIPAA, ISO/IEC 42001, EU AI Act, and SOC 2 assessments share it, so you resolve it once.

Keep the rest of your examination evidence

Your SOC 2 description, remaining criteria, and the operation of controls across the examination period stay in your GRC record. The assessment covers six criteria for one application and period.
