In a world filled with data breaches and information leaks, establishing trust is not only critical to your revenue stream, but it can be a competitive differentiator when closing new business. Customers and partners seek assurances that the companies they work with are doing everything they can to avoid exposing sensitive information and creating risk.
A company that achieves SOC 2 type II certification has been audited by an independent certified public accountant who determined the firm has the appropriate SOC safeguards and procedures in place to keep its clients’ sensitive data secure.
Defining SOC 2 Type II Certification:
SOC is a system of service organization controls. SOC stands for “system and organization controls,” and the controls are a series of standards designed to help measure how well a given service organization conducts and regulates its information. The purpose of SOC standards is to provide confidence and peace of mind for organizations when they engage third-party vendors. SOC 2 Type II reports are the most comprehensive certification within the Systems and Organization Controls protocol.
