We guide SaaS companies and technology service providers through SOC 2 Type I and Type II — from evidence collection to auditor liaison — so you can close enterprise deals faster.
SOC 2 evaluates your controls against five Trust Service Criteria. Security (CC) is mandatory; the others are selected based on your product and customer requirements.
Any technology company storing, processing, or transmitting customer data that sells to enterprise buyers. If your sales team is losing deals because prospects ask for security documentation you can't provide, SOC 2 is almost certainly the answer.
Yes. SOC 2 is not US-exclusive — it's an AICPA framework that can be applied globally. Many East African SaaS companies pursue SOC 2 specifically to sell into US and European enterprise markets. We've supported East African companies through the full process.
SOC 2 audits must be performed by a licensed CPA firm. We are not the auditor — we are your readiness and advisory partner. We help you select an appropriate CPA firm (including firms that audit remote-first companies globally) and manage the relationship throughout.
Total cost has two components: SecureZaidi's readiness programme fee (fixed, based on scope) plus the CPA firm's audit fee (typically $15,000–$40,000 USD for Type II depending on scope). We help you scope efficiently to minimise unnecessary cost without compromising the report's credibility.
Yes — there is roughly 60–70% overlap between ISO 27001 controls and SOC 2 CC criteria. We frequently run combined programmes for companies targeting both certifications, reducing duplicate effort significantly. Many enterprise-grade organisations hold both.
