I understand the SAS70 is a dinosaur and a new best is emerging, but I cannot find the name of it - i"m working on our vendor management program and would appreciate if someone could direct me to where I can find the new audit information I need on my critical vendors.

Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE) No. 16 is the new service organization reporting standard, effective starting June 15, 2011. SSAE 16 supersedes Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 70 with the professional guidance on performing the service auditor's examination. SSAE 16 includes service organization control (SOC) reporting framework (SOC 1, 2, 3).

You can find more information from the following sites:

http://ssae16.com/

Hope this helps some.

Thanks,
Russ

I am looking for a checklist for the SSAE 16 similar to the SAS70 for vendor management. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
