Achieving SOC 2 Type 2 Compliance: Ensuring Data Security and Trust
The digital landscape demands that companies prioritize the security, availability, and confidentiality of their customer data. As of May 3, 2024, Avail Technologies, Inc. proudly announces its SOC 2 Type 2 compliance, demonstrating our unwavering commitment to data protection and operational excellence.
What is SOC 2 Compliance?
SOC 2 is a security and compliance standard that offers guidelines for service organizations to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access, security incidents, and other vulnerabilities. It is part of the System and Organization Controls (SOC) suite of services developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA).
The Journey to SOC 2 Type 2 Compliance
Achieving SOC 2 Type 2 compliance is no easy feat. Unlike the SOC 2 Type 1 certification, which is assessed at a single point in time, SOC 2 Type 2 involves a prolonged evaluation process. This certification signifies a long-term commitment to maintaining robust security practices, verified by continuous supervision and stringent audits.
