Last updated / Combined scope
Almost everything ranking for “SOC 2 and ISO 27001” explains how the two frameworks differ. Almost nothing tells you which firms will do both for you in one engagement — and that is the question that actually saves money. This is the list nobody built: the firms in our directory that issue both a SOC 2 report and an ISO 27001 certification as a single, combined assessment, with one evidence pull and one fieldwork window instead of two disconnected projects.
The overlap between the two frameworks is large. SOC 2's Trust Services Criteria and ISO 27001's Annex A controls cover much of the same ground — access control, change management, risk assessment, vendor management, incident response. When one assessor runs both at once, you collect evidence once and map it across both frameworks, and you sit for interviews and walkthroughs once. That is why a combined engagement typically lands 25–40% cheaper than buying the two audits separately, and why it compresses the calendar instead of doubling it. Buyers who try to run a SOC 2 firm and a separate ISO 27001 certification body in parallel usually end up paying twice for overlapping work.
There is one structural nuance worth understanding. A SOC 2 report is an attestation issued by a licensed CPA firm; an ISO 27001 certificate is issued by an accredited certification body. A handful of firms hold both capabilities directly; others pair a CPA practice with an affiliated or partnered certification body under one roof and one contract. Either way, what you are buying is a single coordinated engagement with one point of contact — the listings below note where a firm runs both natively. Across this set, first-year combined Type 2 fees typically start around $20,000 and run to roughly $35,000 for standard SaaS scope, with national firms higher. The most common trigger for a combined engagement is a company that already holds SOC 2 for its US buyers and suddenly needs ISO 27001 to close a European or enterprise deal; rather than start a separate certification project from scratch, it extends the existing evidence base, which is precisely the work a dual-capable firm is set up to do.
This page is the commercial “which firm” answer; for how the two frameworks actually differ in scope, certification model, and recognition, read our SOC 2 vs ISO 27001 explainer and the ISO 27001 framework page, both linked below. Use the quote button if you would rather be matched to two or three firms that run combined SOC 2 + ISO 27001 engagements at your scale.

What buyers ask before shortlisting.
These are the questions that usually decide whether a firm belongs on your shortlist.
Yes. The firms on this page issue both in a single combined engagement. Some hold both the CPA attestation capability and ISO certification accreditation directly; others pair a CPA practice with an affiliated certification body under one contract.
A combined engagement is typically 25–40% cheaper than buying the two audits separately, because evidence is collected once and mapped across both frameworks and fieldwork happens in a single window rather than two.
Yes, but the deliverables differ in kind: a SOC 2 report is a CPA attestation, while ISO 27001 is a certificate from an accredited certification body. One firm can deliver both, sometimes through an affiliated certification arm, under a single coordinated engagement.
Largely, yes. Access control, change management, risk assessment, vendor management, and incident response overlap heavily between SOC 2’s Trust Services Criteria and ISO 27001’s Annex A, so a combined audit reuses one evidence set across both.
If you need both — often SOC 2 for US buyers and ISO 27001 for international ones — running them together saves money and time. If you only need one today, start there; a combined firm can add the second later without redoing shared work.
Use these to pressure-test scope, independence, and cost with any firm you contact from the list.
Either can come first, but doing them together avoids duplicated evidence work. US-market companies often lead with SOC 2; companies selling into Europe and Asia often need ISO 27001 sooner.
Yes. ISO 27001 results in a certificate from an accredited certification body; SOC 2 results in an attestation report from a licensed CPA firm. They are different deliverables that cover overlapping controls.
You still receive two distinct deliverables — a SOC 2 report and an ISO 27001 certificate — from the combined engagement, so each customer gets the document their procurement process expects.
Use these when you need the broader auditor list, the software angle, or the framework explainer before you choose a firm.
SOC 2 reports require CPA attestation. Preparation software and readiness consultants can collect evidence and reduce audit work, but the opinion has to come from an independent, licensed CPA firm.
Confirm scope in writing. Before signing, ask the firm which report or certificate it can issue directly, which work is handled by an affiliate, and what evidence carries over between frameworks or platforms.
