Overview

About the soc 2 readiness template

A SOC 2 Type II audit is a multi-month program with real dependencies. A plan keeps scoping, control mapping, the ninety-day evidence window, and fieldwork in the right order so the audit does not stall.

This template is the built-in SOC 2 Type II starter project in Atlas. It ships with the milestones a compliance owner runs and a RAID log seeded with the risks that surface mid-audit, such as control gaps and an expired sub-service organization report.

Because it is a live Atlas project, the long evidence window and the customer-facing distribution of the final report sit on one record, so the audit is auditable itself.

What is included

  • Scoping and auditor

  • Evidence window

    A milestone for the ninety-plus-day evidence collection period that Type II requires.

  • Fieldwork and report

    Milestones for completing fieldwork, issuing the report, and distributing it to customers.

  • Seeded RAID log

    Risks such as control gaps found mid-fieldwork and an expired vendor SOC 2, ready to adapt.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What is the difference between SOC 2 Type I and Type II?
Type I assesses control design at a point in time. Type II assesses whether those controls operated effectively over a period, typically ninety days or more, which is why evidence collection spans that window.
How long does a SOC 2 Type II audit take?
The evidence window alone is usually ninety days or longer, and scoping, control mapping, and fieldwork add further time, so most cycles run several months end to end.
Is this SOC 2 template free?
Yes. The SOC 2 Type II starter project is built into Atlas and available to every workspace. See the pricing page for what is included on each plan.
