Your Vendor SOC 2 Says Nothing About the Model
Procurement still treats a SOC 2 report as proof that an artificial intelligence vendor is safe. It is not. SOC 2 attests to infrastructure controls, not model behaviour, and the two have almost nothing to do with each other. Here is what your contracts should actually demand instead.

Agent Sprawl is the 2026 engineering risk your auditor hasn't named yet.
Uncontrolled parallel AI coding sessions are a silent SOC 2 liability.
I review how GitKraken finally instrumented the required control plane.

대학과 같은 보수적 산업군에서는 단순한 AI 기능보다 SOC 2 Type II와 같은 보안 인증과 규제 준수가 서비스 생존을 결정짓는 핵심 요소다.
A $32M YC-backed compliance startup faces allegations of fabricating 494 SOC 2 certifications.

Love them or hate them, SOC 2 reports have become table stakes for SaaS deals. But the framework leaves the vendor in control of the system boundary and auditor selection, which means the reports vary drastically in rigor.
