r/soc2 is a subreddit with 12k members. The most common kinds of discussions are advice requests and solution requests, and the community frequently discusses soc 2, compliance, soc2, security, and audit.
This community was created to discuss issues and experiences around providing and parsing AICPA's SOC2 standards. There is a lack of quality information surrounding this topic and I wanted a space where auditors and auditees involved in SOC audits can trade ideas and ask questions.
