- ## Evidence Fundamentals
12
-
13
- ### Type 1 vs Type 2 Evidence
14
-
15
- | | Type 1 | Type 2 |
16
- |---|---|---|
17
- | **What's tested** | Control design at a point in time | Control operating effectiveness over a period |
18
- | **Evidence needed** | Proof control *exists* and is *designed* correctly | Proof control *operated consistently* throughout the period |
19
- | **Sampling** | Single instance is usually sufficient | Auditor will sample multiple instances across the period |
20
- | **Typical audit period** | A date (e.g., Dec 31, 2024) | 6–12 months (e.g., Jan 1 – Dec 31, 2024) |
21
-
22
- For Type 2, auditors typically use **statistical sampling** — for higher-frequency controls (daily logs, weekly scans), they'll pull samples from across the period. For lower-frequency controls (annual risk assessment, quarterly access reviews), they'll test every instance.
23
-
24
- ### Sampling Guidance by Control Frequency
25
-
26
- | Frequency | Auditor sample size (typical) |
27
- |---|---|
28
- | Continuous / daily | 20–30 items from across the period |
29
- | Weekly | 5–10 weeks sampled |
30
- | Monthly | 3–6 months sampled |
31
- | Quarterly | All 4 quarters |
32
- | Annual | 1 (but must cover the audit period) |
33

208
- ## Evidence Quality Checklist
209
-
210
- Before submitting evidence to auditors, verify:
211
-
212
- - [ ] **Dated** — every screenshot or export clearly shows the date it was captured
213
- - [ ] **System-identified** — it's clear which system the evidence comes from
214
- - [ ] **Complete for period** — Type 2 evidence covers the full audit window
215
- - [ ] **Not reconstructed** — evidence was captured at the time of control operation, not created retroactively
216
- - [ ] **Reviewer-attributable** — approvals show who approved (not just "admin" or a shared account)
217
- - [ ] **Named with context** — files are named clearly (e.g., `CC6.5_AccessReview_Q3-2024_Signed.pdf`, not `screenshot1.png`)
218
- - [ ] **Organized by criterion** — evidence folder mirrors the TSC structure
219
-
220
- ---
221
-
222
- ## Common Evidence Pitfalls
223
-
224
- 1. **Screenshots with no date** — always capture the date/timestamp in the screenshot or use system-generated exports with metadata.
225
-
226
- 2. **"As of today" exports provided after the audit period** — access lists pulled after the fact don't prove controls operated *during* the period. Configure periodic automated exports.
227
-
228
- 3. **Approval from the same person who made the change** — self-approval violates separation of duties. Flag this for remediation before the audit.
229
-
230
- 4. **Shared or service accounts used for approvals** — individual accountability cannot be established. Require personal accounts for all approvals.
231
-
232
- 5. **Training completion reports showing < 100%** — auditors will ask about non-completers. Have a policy and evidence showing follow-up for late completers.
233
-
234
- 6. **Incomplete incident tickets** — tickets must show: detection time, severity classification, responders, containment actions, resolution, and closure. Sparse tickets are a finding.
235
-
236
- 7. **Vendor SOC 2 reports not reviewed** — simply *having* a vendor's SOC 2 report is insufficient. Show evidence it was reviewed (e.g., review memo, CUEC tracking).

+ ## Evidence Fundamentals
12
+
13
+ ### Type 1 vs Type 2 Evidence
14
+
15
+ | | Type 1 | Type 2 |
16
+ |---|---|---|
17
+ | **What's tested** | Control design at a point in time | Control operating effectiveness over a period |
18
+ | **Evidence needed** | Proof control *exists* and is *designed* correctly | Proof control *operated consistently* throughout the period |
19
+ | **Sampling** | Single instance is usually sufficient | Auditor will sample multiple instances across the period |
20
+ | **Typical audit period** | A date (e.g., Dec 31, 2024) | 6–12 months (e.g., Jan 1 – Dec 31, 2024) |
21
+
22
+ For Type 2, auditors typically use **statistical sampling** — for higher-frequency controls (daily logs, weekly scans), they'll pull samples from across the period. For lower-frequency controls (annual risk assessment, quarterly access reviews), they'll test every instance.
23
+
24
+ ### Sampling Guidance by Control Frequency
25
+
26
+ | Frequency | Auditor sample size (typical) |
27
+ |---|---|
28
+ | Continuous / daily | 20–30 items from across the period |
29
+ | Weekly | 5–10 weeks sampled |
30
+ | Monthly | 3–6 months sampled |
31
+ | Quarterly | All 4 quarters |
32
+ | Annual | 1 (but must cover the audit period) |
33
+ | Event-driven (e.g., per hire/termination) | 20–30 events or 100% if fewer than 20 |

+ ## Common Evidence Pitfalls
223
+
224
+ 1. **Screenshots with no date** — always capture the date/timestamp in the screenshot or use system-generated exports with metadata.
225
+
226
+ 2. **"As of today" exports provided after the audit period** — access lists pulled after the fact don't prove controls operated *during* the period. Configure periodic automated exports.
227
+
228
+ 3. **Approval from the same person who made the change** — self-approval violates separation of duties. Flag this for remediation before the audit.
229
+
230
+ 4. **Shared or service accounts used for approvals** — individual accountability cannot be established. Require personal accounts for all approvals.
231
+
232
+ 5. **Training completion reports showing < 100%** — auditors will ask about non-completers. Have a policy and evidence showing follow-up for late completers.
233
+
234
+ 6. **Incomplete incident tickets** — tickets must show: detection time, severity classification, responders, containment actions, resolution, and closure. Sparse tickets are a finding.
235
+
236
+ 7. **Vendor SOC 2 reports not reviewed** — simply *having* a vendor's SOC 2 report is insufficient. Show evidence it was reviewed (e.g., review memo, CUEC tracking).
