Annex 5 — AOC (Attestation of Compliance) Template#

A5.0. Purpose#

The Attestation of Compliance (AOC) is a public declaration of conformance with the CCSA standard. It is signed by the Assessed Entity, the Lead Auditor (from the CCSAC), and is registered in the Council Listed Validated Crypto Solutions (LVCS) Registry.

Unlike the ROC, the AOC is published publicly and is used to confirm compliance to customers, regulators, insurers, and banking partners.
