## What is SOC 2® Type 2?
A SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) Assurance Report is a report based on the Trust Service Criteria established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), in which an independent auditor verifies the establishment and operational status of a service provider's internal controls and reports the results. The Trust Service Criteria consist of five categories: "Security," "Availability," "Processing Integrity," "Confidentiality," and "Privacy."
While a SOC 2® Type 1 Assurance Report evaluates the appropriateness of the design of internal controls at a specific point in time, a SOC 2® Type 2 Assurance Report evaluates that internal controls have been continuously established and operated over a period of time, making it a more rigorous and reliable report.
## Background and Purpose of Acquisition
Ai Workforce is a platform that supports continuous business automation through AI Agents, utilizing corporate operational data and internal documents. As its adoption and consideration by enterprise companies progress, there is an increasing demand for objective verification results from third parties regarding efforts related to security, availability, and confidentiality.
Especially in customer security assessments and vendor reviews, it is crucial to demonstrate not only that controls are "established" but also that they have been "continuously operated" over a certain period. In response to these demands, Ai Workforce undertook the acquisition of SOC 2® Type 2 to convey reliability as a common standard, without relying on individual explanations or document presentations.
This initiative aims to demonstrate that important control measures consistently function even as service expansion and organizational changes progress, creating a state where enterprise companies can confidently make adoption decisions.

## About Ai Workforce
"Ai Workforce" is an AI platform with the concept of "growing together with companies." By combining agents that make autonomous judgments and actions with AI workflows that perform stable processing, it realizes continuous and diverse business automation, not limited to single-task processing. Since it can cover a wide range of tasks in different departments on a single platform, it prevents the "siloing" of AI utilization.
It specializes in document processing such as PDFs, Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, and is equipped with various modules such as transcribing to customized Excel templates and masking confidential information, not limited to generative AI processing. The document search function is also enhanced, allowing users to store and share scattered knowledge and know-how within the company in an easily accessible format.
