What is SOC 2 Type 1 Certification?
SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is an auditing procedure evaluating a company's information security measures. Type 1 certification specifically assesses the design and implementation of these controls at a specific point in time. Achieving this certification demonstrates ongoing dedication to maintaining the highest standards of data security, confidentiality, and privacy.
Next step
While this certification is a great achievement, it is just the beginning. We are continuously working to improve our security measures and are now pursuing the SOC 2 Type 2 certification, which assesses the effectiveness of these controls over time. This ongoing commitment make sure we remain at the forefront of data security and compliance, providing our clients with reliable and secure services.
We would like to take the opportunity to thank our compliance partner Thoropass for a great collaboration throughout our certification process and for continued collaboration with our SOC 2 Type 2 certification.
