SOC 2 timelines

An overview of SOC 2

What is SOC 2 Types of SOC 2 audits Importance Costs Timelines Frequency Challenges

If you’re attempting to get SOC 2 compliant without any tools or external help, you’re looking at a 6 to 12-month timeline. That includes figuring out what controls you need, documenting everything, implementing policies, collecting evidence, and passing the audit.

Using a compliance automation tool can cut that down significantly. Tools like Sprinto can bring the timeline closer to 8 to 12 weeks, especially if your systems are already in decent shape.

SOC 2 Type I audits are quicker. Since they just verify the design of your controls at a point in time, you can get through the audit phase in a few weeks. SOC 2 Type II, though, tracks how your controls perform over time, during the observation period, which needs a monitoring period of at least 3 months (and often 6 to 12).
