Language-specific, role-mapped, hands-on training with per-developer evidence that ties cleanly to CC1.4, CC2.3, CC7.1, and CC8.1 — ready for your auditor on day one.
SOC 2 auditors evaluate developer security training across multiple Trust Services Criteria — competence, communication, anomaly detection, and change management. Our platform was architected to satisfy each of them, not retrofitted onto a video library.
Evidence that developers receive security training appropriate to their role — with role-mapped curriculum, completion records, and assessment outcomes that demonstrate competence rather than mere attendance.
Training reinforces your secure coding policies and standards in the languages your engineers actually use. Learners encounter the same controls, terminology, and code paths your auditor will see in your policy document.
Curriculum covers the logging, monitoring, and incident response patterns developers must build into production code — so detection capability is engineered in, not bolted on after the fact.
Training reinforces that every code change considers security. Per-developer review evidence ties back to training records, giving your auditor a clean line from policy to competence to actual change discipline.
A SOC 2 auditor reviewing developer training is looking for a specific set of artifacts that tie competence and change discipline to the Trust Services Criteria. Our platform produces all of them — automatically, continuously, and in the formats auditors read.
Full per-learner record with role and primary language attached, version-controlled, exportable to the formats your auditor and audit-management platform accept.
Auto-generated curriculum description per language and stack, scoped to the systems inside your audit boundary. No "principles transfer" disclaimers; native content for every language your platform actually runs.
Score, attempt count, remediation outcomes — evidence of demonstrated competence, not merely time-in-seat. The artifact CC1.4 reviewers ask for and most LMS exports cannot produce.
Code review challenge outcomes tied to each developer — the CC8.1 hook auditors use to confirm that change management discipline is real and individually attributable, not just process documentation.
Version-controlled curriculum updates with a changelog tied to new attack classes, internal incident data, and developer feedback. Auditors see when content moved and why.
CSV and JSON exports with immutable timestamps. Drop straight into your audit-management tool or hand to the auditor. Per-learner audit trail, ready to attach to the SOC 2 report workpapers.
We share our own SOC 2 report under NDA so your vendor risk team can close out the third-party review on us. (Note: Type II report availability is on our roadmap; current customers can request the latest status.)
A thirty-minute call is usually all it takes to know if we are the right fit for your 2026 audit. We walk your team through the relevant TSC bar, map our program to your stack, and show you the evidence package your auditor will accept.
A SOC 2 audit runs in two stages. Type I attests that controls are designed appropriately at a point in time; Type II attests that they operated effectively over a window of six to twelve months. Service providers selecting which Trust Services Criteria to scope, gather evidence against each control, and engage an AICPA-registered CPA firm to issue the report — developer training evidence lives in CC1.4 (competence) and CC2.3 (communication) most cycles.
Type II reports cover an observation window, so evidence must accumulate across the entire period — not be assembled at the end. Continuous SOC 2 compliance means automated control monitoring (Vanta, Drata, Secureframe), per-developer training cadence with refresh cycles inside the window, and review evidence captured in real time. Re-issuing the report annually is the standard cadence.
A readiness assessment confirms whether controls are in place before the auditor begins. The SOC 2 security controls list typically reviewed includes: access provisioning and deprovisioning evidence, change management records (CC8.1), risk assessment outputs, vendor management documentation, incident response runbook execution, monitoring and alerting coverage (CC7.1), and developer training transcripts tied to engineering roles in scope.
SOC 1 reports on controls over financial reporting — relevant when a service provider touches customers' financial records. SOC 1 Type II is the operating-effectiveness version. SOC 2 reports on controls aligned to one or more Trust Services Criteria (Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, Privacy) — relevant for any service handling customer data. Most SaaS providers issue SOC 2 Type II, not SOC 1.
SOC 2 certification cost typically runs $20,000–$80,000 for the audit itself depending on Type I vs Type II, scope, and firm. Add internal preparation cost — usually 3–6 months of engineering and security team time — plus continuous-compliance tooling ($10K–$50K/year). Developer training that already produces auditable evidence reduces preparation overhead measurably in our deployments.
