Cloud-based infrastructure services from AWS, Azure, Google and IBM have enabled several technology companies to build powerful cloud-based Software as a Service (SaaS) applications.
Those SaaS companies obviously want to grow their business. Towards that end, they need to demonstrate that the customer data is managed securely in their cloud services environment. Having this type of attestation of their data management practices can augment their credibility from a security standpoint and, in doing so, help to sell their services and tools. Introducing SOC Many of these SaaS entities are turning to System and Organization Controls (SOC) in response to those benefits. Generally, organizations turn to one of two SOC categories. Designed with AT-C section 320 in mind, SOC 1 is a means through which service organizations and CPAs that audit those entities’ financial statements can report upon the effect of implementing internal controls on their financial reporting mechanisms.

Other viruses soon followed with novel names such as “Stoned”, “Monkey”, and even “Stoned Monkey”. By 1990, “The Computer Virus Handbook” was published. Why was anyone wasting time infecting computers with malicious code? Simple Economics Most folks were unaware of the emergence of early hacker forums, as well as computer crime, so they did not understand the rapid increase of computer viruses.
