Understanding the scope: This tool provides the critical foundation for your SOC 2 journey, but it's just the first step.
In short: This tool gives you the blueprint—the controls and policies that form the foundation of your SOC 2 program.
In short: You'll need to implement, operate, and prove that your controls work over time—then have an auditor verify everything.
Reality check: Most organizations spend 3-9 months from starting implementation to receiving their SOC 2 report. This tool accelerates the documentation phase from weeks to hours, but you still need time to implement, operate, and prove your controls work.

You don't need a large team to achieve SOC 2 compliance. Here's how solo founders and 1-2 person startups can successfully prepare for and pass a SOC 2 audit.
SOC 2 compliance is achievable for solopreneurs and small startups because the framework focuses on processes, documentation, and controls—not headcount. While large enterprises may have dedicated security teams, small teams can implement the same level of rigor through well-documented procedures and smart tooling.
Auditors want to see that you've clearly defined who is responsible for what, even if one person wears multiple hats. Document:
Small teams can use "compensating controls" to address typical separation of duties concerns:
Your policies should reflect your actual operations. For small teams, this means:
Small teams need to be diligent about collecting evidence throughout the audit period:
| Role | Responsibility | Person |
|---|---|---|
| Chief Executive Officer (CEO) | Overall responsibility for compliance program, final approvals | Founder |
| Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) | Security policy creation, risk assessments, security reviews | Founder |
| Chief Technology Officer (CTO) | Infrastructure management, system architecture, change management | Founder |
| Development Lead | Code development, code reviews, deployment procedures | Founder |
| Operations Lead | Monitoring, incident response, backup verification | Founder |
| HR/People Operations | Background checks, access provisioning/deprovisioning, training | Founder (or Co-Founder) |
Use SSO providers (Okta, Google Workspace, Azure AD) to centralize access control and generate audit logs automatically.
Cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure) offer built-in logging and monitoring. Enable everything—storage is cheap, audit failures are expensive.
Automated tools like Dependabot, Snyk, or GitHub Advanced Security can scan for vulnerabilities without manual effort.
Use version-controlled documentation (GitHub, Notion, Confluence) so you can prove when policies were created and updated.
Automated backup solutions with verification reports are essential. Test restores quarterly and document the results.
Use platforms like KnowBe4 or SecurityAwareness.com for annual security training. They provide completion certificates for audit evidence.
Complete this compliance builder, implement basic security controls (2FA, SSO, encryption), document your current processes as they exist today.
Enable comprehensive logging, set up monitoring and alerting, create templates for recurring evidence (access reviews, vulnerability scans, backup verifications).
Follow your documented procedures consistently. Collect evidence. Most auditors require 3-6 months of evidence, so this is when you start the clock for your audit.
Engage an auditor, conduct a readiness assessment (some auditors offer this), organize all evidence into a shared folder with clear labels.
Respond to auditor questions promptly, provide evidence as requested, address any gaps identified. Most small team audits take 4-8 weeks from start to report delivery.
SOC 2 compliance is absolutely achievable for solopreneurs and 1-2 person teams. The key is to:
Many successful SaaS companies achieved their first SOC 2 certification with just 1-3 people. You can too.
