Masu. In other words, it is necessary for the outsourcing company or developer company (vendor company) to carry out a procedure to "confirm the internal control status of the outsourcing company," but it is difficult for the user company to carry out this in parallel within a limited time. , it takes a lot of effort and cannot be called efficient. In particular, evaluating operational status during a period requires a great deal of effort.
In such cases, if there is a report that proves the vendor company's internal control status, the user company can use this report to facilitate internal control audits. One of these is the "SOC Report" that B-EN-G obtained this time. Internal Control Assurance Report.
■Summary of the “SOC1 Type 2 Report”, a report on the development status of internal controls at the contracted company
When a company outsources work related to specific financial reporting to an external service, an SOC report is an objective report provided by an auditing firm or certified public accountant from a third party's perspective regarding the internal controls of the outsourced company. This is the result of verification.
The "SOC1 Type 2 report" received this time verified the appropriateness of the design of internal controls and the effectiveness of the operational status of internal controls for the part related to financial reporting among operations using the target system over the target period. This is the result. Unlike the Type 1 report, the Type 2 report discloses the evaluation scope and procedures in detail, so it can generally be expected to significantly reduce the number of evaluation procedures that should normally be performed by the outsourced company and the outsourced company auditor. .
With this receipt, customers who use mcframe GA or GLASIAOUS can use this report to understand the control design in Type 1, and then consider the necessity of evaluation and conduct the actual evaluation. However, in Type 2, most or all of the evaluation is covered by the SOC1 report, making it possible to evaluate internal controls more efficiently.
