Cloud updates and other technology advances have put new pressure on most technology companies—especially Software as a Service (SaaS) companies—to streamline roll-outs of updates and new product offerings. To meet customer needs, and to get features and products released to market faster, SaaS companies are turning to Agile frameworks to implement an iterative software development process and better streamline their updates and development. An Agile framework allows for more real-time testing, development and a faster delivery of product. However, from the perspective of an auditor performing a System and Organization Controls (SOC) examination, the process of gleaning details to determine control design suitability and operating effectiveness within an Agile environment could be a bit more challenging to the typical SOC approach if there’s a lack of documentation.
