Management Assertion
A SOC 2 Management Assertion is a statement by a company’s management related to its system undergoing an audit. This statement is concerned with the effectiveness of the company’s internal controls related to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. The management acknowledges that the information they have provided is accurate per the descriptions.
Additionally, it states the types of services provided, system components, system aspects, how the system reads specific events and actions, report preparation processes, and why specific trust criteria are not met.
