A SOC 2 Fairytale... (w/voiceover)
Once upon a time ago... there was a startup, and they wanted to get SOC 2.
A SOC Story… Part 1
Once upon a time, there was a company that wanted to achieve SOC 2 compliance.
They had heard tales of the rigorous control requirements and feared they would never be able to pass the audit. 😯
But they were determined and worked tirelessly 🚀 to implement the necessary controls.
They hired security experts, invested in new technology, and even enlisted the help of a superhero. 💪🏽
Finally, the day of the audit arrived and the company nervously awaited the results.
To their delight, they passed with flying colors and celebrated with a big party. 🥳
From that day on, they were known as the SOC 2 compliant company and lived happily ever after, secure in the knowledge that their systems and customer data were protected. 🏰

A SOC Story… Part 2 🤨
But their celebration was short-lived when they realized they had made a grave mistake.
⚠️They had forgotten to include one control in their audit - the coffee machine.
The auditors demanded an immediate fix and the company scrambled to implement a secure coffee-making process. 🌪️
They even hired a barista to ensure the controls were properly monitored. From that day on, the company vowed to never underestimate the importance of coffee in their security posture.
And they all lived happily ever after, fully caffeinated ☕ and SOC 2 compliant ✅.
Did you get a good laugh? Share it with the world, it’s infectious!
