SOC 2 Attestation Tips for SaaS Companies
Attestation helps SaaS vendors demonstrate that digital security is a primary focus.
Companies are increasingly turning to software-as-a-service (SaaS); IDG predicts that organizations share of SaaS apps will rise to 36% by the end of 2021, up from 24% in mid-2020.
This growth reflects the advantages organizations see in SaaS. For example, businesses can use SaaS to achieve faster deployment times than they can with on-premises software. In addition, SaaS solutions can run with a Web browser on any type of device, and operational management is minimal. There are no lengthy installation processes or equipment updates. There aren t even upfront hardware costs; organizations can use pay-as-you-go plans to scale their SaaS solutions, including investments in security technology and expertise.
