What is the SOC 2 for Shopify Developers Using course about?

Engineers shipping features are often blindsided by compliance gaps in access controls, audit logging, or session management during review cycles. This leads to predictable but avoidable rework sprints, delayed releases, and friction with security teams. The issue isn't developer skill, it's the absence of clear, code-level control patterns that align with SOC 2 requirements from day one.
