What we work on
How do we demonstrate that the systems supporting our services are controlled and trustworthy? We help define your system, put controls into use and organize the evidence that explains their operation. Killer Logic supports readiness and ongoing program operation; an independent licensed CPA firm performs the examination and issues the SOC report. As your advocate, we help management and control owners navigate requests, explain their work accurately and follow issues through to action.
Identify the services, systems, people and dependencies supporting your commitments. SOC 2 uses the Trust Services Criteria, with categories for security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality and privacy. Help select applicable categories based on your system, commitments and examination needs; every engagement does not automatically cover all five. Map existing controls to the relevant criteria and identify readiness gaps.
Connect risk assessment to policies and procedures people can follow. Establish access management, onboarding and offboarding, periodic access reviews and change approvals with clear ownership. Address vendor oversight and incident preparedness, and recovery or availability planning where relevant. Turn remediation priorities into operating routines with records that show who performed and reviewed the work.
Create an evidence calendar and index linking controls to records, owners and collection dates. Review completeness, reconcile missing periods and help explain exceptions. Documentation alone does not demonstrate sustained control operation: the program needs records of activities actually performed. Work with existing tools where useful, while checking that collected evidence reflects the system and control being described.
Support management’s system description and prepare control owners for walkthroughs. Translate auditor requests into understandable tasks and coordinate progress. Help accurately explain how controls work and clarify requests that appear mismatched to system boundaries or the agreed scope. Keep unresolved issues visible, with factual responses that support the auditor’s independent evaluation rather than attempting to direct its conclusions.
Help management respond to exceptions, understand causes and assign corrective actions. Follow up on whether revised controls are operating, update documentation after changes and maintain recurring review responsibilities. Keep the program functioning after examination through evidence checks, owner support and periodic reassessment of risks, vendors and service commitments.
For a software provider responding to customer assurance requests, define the service boundary and relevant categories, assess access and change practices, and build an evidence calendar. Help control owners close gaps and explain the operating routines they will need to sustain.
For a company maintaining its SOC 2 program, review changes to vendors, infrastructure and responsibilities. Check evidence completeness, update policies and the system description, and follow exceptions through corrective action while preparing the next period’s examination requests.
How we engage
What you take forward
Before we get started
SOC 2 addresses controls using applicable Trust Services Criteria; SOC 1 focuses on controls relevant to customers’ financial reporting. SOC means System and Organization Controls in these services. It does not refer to a security operations center or establish a managed detection or round-the-clock response capability.
Type 1 addresses the system description and suitability of control design at a specified date. Type 2 also addresses operating effectiveness over a specified period. The right choice depends on customer needs and program maturity; Type 1 is not mandatory before Type 2. Readiness checks help you prepare and are separate from the independent examination.
No. Security is foundational; additional categories depend on your service commitments, system and examination needs. For example, availability commitments may make recovery and capacity practices particularly relevant. We help management discuss the appropriate scope with its auditor before building an unnecessarily broad program.
Yes. We organize the program around your business and work with your selected tools and CPA firm. Software can help gather records and track tasks, but control owners still need to perform the work, review exceptions and explain what the evidence demonstrates.
Yes. We help maintain an effective program through recurring control schedules, evidence review, owner support and corrective-action tracking. As systems and commitments change, we revisit scope and documentation so the next reporting period reflects how the business actually operates.
