About Dansa D'Arata Soucia LLP

"DDS" is a full service CPA firm, located in downtown Buffalo, New York servicing clients all around the continental United States and abroad. We pride ourselves on attracting top talent to make sure our clients are always getting the "A" team. Our areas of expertise include information security attestation and consulting (SOC 1, SOC 2, ISO internal audit, GDPR, HIPAA, and others), traditional compliance services (taxation and financial statement assurance), business valuations, mergers & acquisitions (buy and sell side diligence and sale positioning), client accounting services (outsourced bookkeeping, controller, CFO), and more!

THE DDS DIFFERENCE

+ Peer reviewed through the AICPA's Peer Review Program.

+ We have often been referred to as "the friendly auditors". We have a job to do, but that does not mean we need to make your life difficult. Through careful planning and execution, we set you up for success, and make sure expectations are clear (all while maintaining our independence of course!)

+ We have a deep understanding of what Drata offers, and maximize Drata's automation to provide an efficient examination, passing along the cost savings to you, our client.

+ Our team of fully dedicated information security audit leads have each been through hundreds of SOC 2 examinations.

+ DDS issues approximately 200 SOC 2 examinations annually and we continue to add to our team to make sure turnaround time, and responsiveness remains best in class.

+ We take the time to understand your business. Through our information gathering process we can make sure we price our services correctly and competitively. No surprises allowed.

+ Information security attestation is not all that we offer. Our firm of 40+ CPA's and accountants has grown many of our clients that have started with SOC 2 into clients that utilize many of our service offerings. Our SOC 2 clients have also used our team for: Corporate Tax Work, Reviewed Financial Statements, M&A Diligence, State Sales and Income Tax Nexus Studies, Outsourced Bookkeeping, Outsourced Controller and CFO Services, and more. We have a small firm feel, with the expertise and network of a large regional firm.

We look forward to having a conversation with you to answer any and all concerns and to find ways to make your lives simpler, and your businesses more successful.

We hired Dansa D'Arata Soucia to be our auditing firm for our SOC 1, SOC 2, ISO 27001 and HIPAA compliance. They have been a pleasure to work with and definitely bring that personal touch with always being available and helping you learn while you go through the auditing process. It is also great to be able to work directly with the auditors for your account. Highly recommend.

Mike and the team at Dansa D'Arata Soucia made our SOC 2 auditing experience straightforward and painless. They set us up for success at the start with helpful documentation and were always willing to hop on a call to explain the idiosyncrasies of the process.

Working with DDS was a huge improvement over our past auditors. We’ve always struggled with junior auditors, lack of experience and knowledge, and a combative indication. DDS was the exact opposite. They are professional, knowledgeable, flexible, fun to work with, and make the process simple. I highly recommend anyone looking for an auditor check them out!

It was a pleasure to work with DDS as our SOC 2 auditor. We are a small start‐up, and as it was our first year undergoing a SOC2 Type 2 audit, we had many questions about the formatting of evidence, and the requirements and best practices in general. The DDS team provided us with amazing support throughout the process. Our assigned auditors were extremely diligent, helpful, and communicative at every step, and we are excited to continue partnering with them for our future compliance needs.
