Service Organization Control Attestation

Trust and confidence for third party service organization controls

Our Service Organization Control Attestation reports are designed to help service organizations, organizations that operate information systems and provide information system services to other entities, build trust and confidence in their service delivery processes and controls.

It has become common practice for organizations to outsource to third party service organizations certain tasks or functions related to their business, often even those tasks or functions that are fundamental to their operations. When users of a service organization's services (called user entities) outsource these tasks and functions, many of the risks of the service organization thus become risks of the user entities.

Advancements in technology, updates to regulations and other factors have heightened the need for information and assurance that can prove that management of service organizations are meeting their fiduciary responsibilities. By engaging Wall, Einhorn & Chernitzer to examine and report on your service organization's controls, you can meet the needs of your user entity customers and obtain an objective evaluation of the effectiveness of controls that address operations and compliance, as well as financial reporting at those user entities.
