What is a Type II Audit?

A Service Provider that has completed a Type II audit demonstrates that they have defined internal controls and had an opinion issued by a third party auditor. Clients and their auditors may rely on this third-party audit to understand the controls in place at the Service Organization.

KirkpatrickPrice is a licensed CPA firm, performing the audit and appropriate testing of controls that may affect the User Organization's financial statements. Specialized security professionals and information technology auditors use best practice guidance from the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), Information Systems Audit and Control Association (ISACA), International Information Systems Security Certification Consortium, Inc., (ISC)²®, and the SANS (SysAdmin, Audit, Network, Security) Institute.

For a copy of your Service Provider's report, please contact them directly. As the independent auditor, we stand ready to assist with any questions about the scope or testing performed during the audit.
