Having dealt with KPMG recently (which I do at least once a year...), I would not expect to see the report.

KPMG's risk department - the lawyers' lawyers - appears to be violently allergic to their customers disclosing any report to outside parties. Based on my experience you can get a copy, but first you and the primary customer need to submit some paperwork. And among the conditions you need to agree with is that you don't redistribute the report or its contents.

Disclosure: I deal with security audits and technical aspects of compliance.

Isn't that the entire point of such an audit? To be able to present it to outside third-parties?

For examples, Mozilla (CA/B) requires audits for root CAs. The CA must provide a link to the audit on the auditor's public web site -- forwarding a copy or hosting it on their own isn't sufficient.

You'd think, but it's surprisingly difficult to get the real full audit report. Mozilla's root policy _does_ require that they be shown the report, and has a bunch of extra requirements in there to ensure they're more detail, rather than some summary or overview document the auditors were persuaded to produce for this purpose. But the CA/B rules would allow just an audit letter which basically almost always says "Yes, we did an audit, and everything is fine" unless the auditors weren't comfortable writing "everything is fine". And almost always they feel that a footnote on a sub-paragraph buried in a detailed report is enough to leave "everything is fine" as the headline in the letter...

If you've ever been audited for some other reason, you'll know they find lots of things, and then you fix them, and that's "fine". But well, is it fine? Or, should we acknowledge that they found lots of things and what those things were, even if you subsequently fixed them? The CA/B says you have several months to hand over your letter after the audit period. Guess what those months are spent doing...

Auditors will confirm the result of the audit but usually not disclose the content of the audit report.
