As organizations look to cloud services to process more sensitive and critical data, security and risk management teams require tools to quickly assess and understand the types and rigor of security controls applied by cloud service providers. CSA STAR Attestation is the first cloud-specific attestation program designed to meet this need. CSA STAR Attestation is a collaboration between CSA and the AICPA to provide guidelines for CPAs to conduct SOC 2 engagements using criteria from the AICPA (Trust Services Criteria) and the CSA Cloud Controls Matrix.
Listen as we interview Debbie Zaller; Principal, practice leader, and SME for Schellman & Company, LLC who leads the Midwest Region along with the Privacy, SOC 2 and SOC 3 service lines. We take you inside a STAR attestation engagement following the process from start to finish along with discussing the value having successfully completed a STAR Attestation audit.
