Hi — quick update on the Northwind contract.
Procurement signed off on pricing, but their security team flagged one blocker: we can't close until our SOC 2 Type II attestation clears. The audit window ends next month, so legal wants to align on dates this week.
Can you join Thursday's sync to walk through the timeline?

SOC 2 Type II is an independent audit of how a company protects customer data. In short:
- Type II: auditors observe your controls working over several months — not a one-day check.
- Attestation: the auditor's signed report confirming you passed.
Enterprise customers often require it before they'll sign.
