SOC 2 Pen Testing

SOC 2 Pen Testing & VAPT

AI pen testing for SOC 2 Type 1 and Type 2 Trust Services Criteria

Continuous SOC 2 pen testing and VAPT for SaaS and AI companies — CC6.6 vulnerability management, CC7.1 monitoring, CC8.1 change management. Compliance-ready pentest evidence for Type 1 and Type 2 attestation, startup SOC 2 fast track, and cross-mapping to ISO 27001, HIPAA and PCI DSS.

How It Works

Four steps. One continuous pen testing loop.

1

SOC 2 Scope & TSC

Define systems in scope and applicable Trust Services Criteria (Security, Availability, Confidentiality, Processing Integrity, Privacy). Align the SOC 2 pen testing scope with your Statement of Applicability and auditor expectations for Type 1 or Type 2.

2

AI SOC 2 Pentest

AI pen testing agents execute authenticated web, API, cloud, and network VAPT against your in-scope SaaS stack, mapping each finding to CC6, CC7, and CC8 Common Criteria without the delays of consultant-led engagements.

3

Continuous Evidence

SOC 2 Type 2 pen testing requires continuous evidence across the observation window. TigerStrike produces timestamped, methodology-documented VAPT output on every release and on scheduled cadences — directly addressing CC6.6 and CC7.1.

4

Auditor Delivery

SOC 2 auditors access reports and evidence through a shared portal. Reports include control-mapped findings, remediation lifecycle, and retest validation — accepted by Big 4 and Top-10 attestation CPA firms.

Key Features

Full SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria pen testing coverage

SOC 2 Common Criteria Coverage

Full CC1-CC9 coverage with deep technical testing of CC6 (logical access), CC7 (system operations) and CC8 (change management) through AI-driven VAPT

CC6.6 Vulnerability Management

Continuous vulnerability identification, validated exploitation, and remediation tracking — directly satisfying CC6.6 'vulnerabilities identified and mitigated' control

CC7.1 Threat Detection

SOC 2 pen testing exercises detection controls through controlled attack scenarios — validating logging, alerting, and SIEM configurations against real adversary techniques

CC7.2 System Monitoring

Attack simulations verify that monitoring, anomaly detection, and incident response readiness align with CC7.2 — essential for SOC 2 Type 2 operating-effectiveness evidence

CC8.1 Change Management

AI pen testing re-runs automatically after significant changes, satisfying CC8.1 expectations that security controls remain effective across the system development lifecycle

AI Pen Testing for AI Companies

Specialised scope for AI company SOC 2 pentest — model endpoints, prompt injection surfaces, retrieval pipelines, and vector store access control testing in addition to standard app and API coverage

AICPA-Aligned Report Format

Reports formatted to AICPA SOC 2 audit guidance (TSC 2017 with 2022 revisions) — the exact structure that attestation CPA firms expect for the pen testing component of a Type 1 or Type 2 report

Observation-Window Continuous Testing

Covers the full SOC 2 Type 2 observation window with scheduled and release-triggered VAPT runs — producing continuous penetration testing services for compliance that match actual delivery velocity

Auditor Collaboration Portal

Share scope, methodology, evidence, and remediation status with your SOC 2 auditor through a secure portal — reducing fieldwork by 40-60% and shortening the signed attestation timeline

Processor-Grade Vendor Evidence

Produce the pentest evidence enterprise customers require in vendor security reviews — SaaS, AI, and B2B software vendors clear security questionnaires with pre-packaged SOC 2 pen testing attestations

Startup SOC 2 Fast Track

A SOC 2 pen testing programme pre-configured for pre-seed, seed, and Series A startups pursuing initial Type 1 — scoped to the trust boundary, priced for startup budgets, and ready for an auditor on day one

Cross-Mapping to ISO, HIPAA, PCI DSS

Pentest for compliance that produces evidence usable for ISO 27001:2022 Annex A, HIPAA Security Rule technical safeguards, PCI DSS Requirement 11.4, and GDPR Article 32 — one engagement, many compliance deliverables

Benefits

Why teams choose TigerStrike for their security needs

SOC 2 Type 1 and Type 2 Ready

A single AI pen testing programme produces evidence for both SOC 2 Type 1 point-in-time attestation and SOC 2 Type 2 reports covering 6-12 month observation windows. No separate engagement required for each report type.

SOC 2 Type 1 and Type 2 Ready

AI Pen Testing Built for SOC 2

Purpose-built for SaaS and AI companies pursuing SOC 2. AI pen testing for SOC 2 compresses what used to be an annual third-party pentest into continuous coverage mapped to Trust Services Criteria — ideal for AI company SOC 2 pentest requirements.

AI Pen Testing Built for SOC 2

Compliance-Ready Pentest Reports

Every report is a compliance-ready pentest deliverable — formatted per AICPA SOC 2 audit guidance, including methodology, testing procedures, control mapping, and remediation tracking. Suitable for auditors, procurement, and vendor security reviews.

Compliance-Ready Pentest Reports

Dual-Framework Efficiency

Evidence collected for SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria automatically cross-maps to ISO 27001:2022 Annex A, HIPAA Security Rule technical safeguards, and PCI DSS Requirement 11.4 — eliminating duplicate testing for multi-framework programmes.

Dual-Framework Efficiency

Faster Time to SOC 2 Report

Startups pursuing initial SOC 2 Type 1 complete pen testing requirements in days rather than months. The compliance pentest evidence feeds directly into GAP assessment, policy drafting, and auditor fieldwork — compressing time to signed attestation.

Faster Time to SOC 2 Report

Vendor Security Review Enabled

Enterprise customers now routinely ask for recent pen testing evidence before signing. SOC 2 pen testing from TigerStrike produces executive summary attestations and under-NDA full reports that clear vendor security reviews on the first pass.
