SOC Deep Dive – EBP Audits

Description

This webcast is a rebroadcast from the 2018 AICPA Employee Benefit Plans Conference. We will take a deep dive into using SOC 1 (SSAE 18) reports in an EBP audit. The webcast will aid the auditor in addressing common issues and effectively leveraging them at the right time.

Part of this discussion will cover how SOC reports will not always address information provided electronically, or initiated and authorized electronically, at the plan sponsor.

Learning Objectives
  • Identify SOC 1 reports and the related standards
  • Analyze impact of carve-outs, exceptions and report qualifications
  • Apply results from SOC 1 reports to risk assessment and substantive audit procedures
  • Differentiate between electronic information received at plan sponsor and what information is actually covered by the SOC 1 report
  • Differentiate between cybersecurity and SOC reports in the EBP industry and how SOC reports address or don’t address those concerns
  • Use the AICPA EBPAQC’s SOC 1 tool to understand the critical importance of properly documenting the use of SOC 1 report
  • Apply session take-aways to develop/enhance best practices within their respective firms
