The SOC Governance team is a small but highly performing team at the client, responsible for the governance around the suite of our SOC reports. The team does not perform testing.

The team works with business and technology owners throughout the organization to ensure their processes and controls are reflected accurately within each report and coordinates with external auditors and internal testing teams responsible for testing the controls. The team consults control owners on responses to new requirements that impact their controls and helps ensure each report is fit for purpose. The team also executes SOC Governance activities that support the program, such as administering control assertions, responding to client questions, and maintaining intranet sites.

The team is currently also working on several program productivity initiatives, which include a systems implementation requiring data standardization, process optimization, and stakeholder training.
