Vigil Assurance delivers SOC 1 and SOC 2 attestation reports for small teams companies. From scoping through signed report, a licensed CPA runs the engagement end to end. Your enterprise customers get the deliverable they expect.
WHAT WE AUDIT
Two Attestation Reports
SOC 1
For service organizations whose systems affect their clients' financial statements. Common for payroll processors, billing platforms, and payment systems. Control objectives are defined jointly during scoping.
AT-C 320 · Type I or Type IISOC 2
For service organizations handling customer data. Built on the AICPA Trust Services Criteria. Security is the required category; Availability, Confidentiality, Processing Integrity, and Privacy are added based on commitments made to customers.
AT-C 205 · Type I or Type IIType I evaluates whether controls are suitably designed as of a point in time. Faster to complete, useful for first-year reporting or early customer conversations. Type II evaluates whether controls operated effectively across a defined period, typically three to twelve months. Type II is the standard for ongoing enterprise procurement.

Onboarding timeline
Phase 1: Scoping (week 1)
60-minute scoping call. We map your product to the applicable Trust Services Criteria, confirm Type I or Type II, and set the audit boundary. Once scope is confirmed, the evidence request list goes out and the audit clock starts.
Phase 2: Foundation (weeks 2 to 4)
Control walkthroughs with your team. Your team begins uploading evidence against the request list in parallel. We confirm the controls in scope, flag any design gaps that should be addressed before testing, and finalize the audit plan.
Phase 3: Evidence and testing (weeks 3 to 6)
The bulk of evidence collection and control testing happens here. We work inside the tools you already use, with one weekly check-in and async work between. For Type II engagements, evidence is sampled across the observation period.
Phase 4: Reporting (weeks 7 to 8)
Draft report for management review. Findings discussed before finalization. Signed SOC report delivered, ready to share with enterprise buyers the day it's issued.
Disclaimer: Typical engagement timeline for SOC 2 Type I. SOC 2 Type II adds a three to twelve month observation period before fieldwork begins. SOC 1 timelines are confirmed during scoping. We commit to a specific timeline in the engagement letter once scoping is complete.
