Penetration Testing and SOC 2
If your organization is pursuing or maintaining SOC 2 compliance, penetration testing plays a key role. While the SOC 2 framework does not mandate penetration testing as a strict requirement, it is strongly recommended and often expected by auditors, customers, and partners.
Here’s why:
-
Penetration testing demonstrates that your organization actively identifies and addresses real-world threats.
-
It helps verify that your security controls are properly designed and effective in practice.
-
Having recent pentest results shows auditors that you take proactive steps toward protecting customer data.
-
Many clients evaluating SOC 2 reports specifically ask whether penetration testing has been performed.
SOC 2 Recommendations for Penetration Testing
Based on industry practice and auditor expectations, here’s how penetration testing fits into SOC 2:
-
Perform at least one penetration test annually, or after major changes to your environment (such as new applications, significant code updates, or infrastructure changes).
-
Cover systems and applications that handle sensitive customer data, as well as the cloud environments and APIs that support them.
-
Document all findings, fix critical and high-risk vulnerabilities, and perform a retest to confirm they’ve been resolved.
-
Penetration testing should complement, not replace, regular vulnerability scanning and patch management programs.
