Professional cybersecurity education that fits real life

Free Audio Course

The SOC 2 Compliance Audio Course is your comprehensive, audio-first guide to understanding and implementing the Service Organization Control (SOC) 2 framework from the ground up. Designed for cybersecurity professionals, auditors, and business leaders, this course breaks down the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Trust Services Criteria into clear, practical lessons that connect compliance theory with daily operational reality. Each episode explores essential concepts such as governance, risk assessment, security controls, and audit preparation—helping you understand how SOC 2 reports demonstrate assurance to customers and regulators.

The course takes a structured approach to explaining each trust principle—Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy—and how they apply to different types of organizations. Listeners learn how to interpret requirements, design and map controls, gather appropriate evidence, and prepare for external audits with confidence. Real-world examples illustrate how companies build policies, implement technical safeguards, and maintain continuous compliance in dynamic cloud and enterprise environments.

Implement effective cybersecurity measures that work in real organizations, not just on paper. In an era where every business depends on connected systems, the challenge is no longer knowing that controls matter, it’s knowing which controls to deploy, how to deploy them correctly, and how to keep them effective as threats and environments change. The Cybersecurity Control Playbook is built to turn cybersecurity intent into repeatable execution, helping teams protect sensitive data, maintain system integrity, and support privacy without getting lost in jargon or theory.

With balanced coverage of both foundational and advanced topics, the book provides a step-by-step approach to developing, deploying, monitoring, testing, and retiring controls across organizations of all sizes. It emphasizes practical implementation, using concrete examples to show what “good” looks like in day-to-day operations, and how to avoid the common failure modes that cause controls to degrade over time. The goal is a living control program that stays aligned to real risk, real assets, and real business constraints.

Readers will also find clear, accessible language; structured guidance for using control frameworks in large, mid-sized, and small environments; and a system for identifying, prioritizing, and managing cyber risk using the MITRE ATT&CK framework, alongside discussion of other major cybersecurity frameworks. The Cybersecurity Control Playbook is ideal for cybersecurity practitioners, IT professionals, and security managers responsible for implementing and managing cybersecurity strategies and the controls that make those strategies measurable and effective.
