Ensuring the security of customer, client and partner data is critical for any software company, and the leading framework for this is Security Operations Center Type 2 (SOC 2).
Venngo is proud to announce it is now fully SOC2 compliant.
What is it?
SOC 2 is a voluntary compliance standard that ensures any third-party service providers store and process our customers’ and clients’ data securely and privately.
This framework specifies a set of high standards of data security for managing customer data, based on five trust service principles: availability, confidentiality, security, privacy and processing integrity.
Five Key Areas:
- Availability: Making sure the systems are available and working when you need them.
- Confidentiality: Protecting your personal and sensitive information so that it remains private.
- Security: Ensuring the company's systems are protected against unauthorized access.
- Privacy: Ensuring that personal information is collected, used, and shared in a way that respects your privacy.
- Processing Integrity: Ensuring the data is processed correctly and without errors.
What does it mean for you?
Security issues are an important topic for many of our clients, and Venngo engages itself to keep our data protected and private.
- Standards for Security: Think of it like security rules a company must follow. Just as workplaces have safety rules to protect you, companies need rules to protect your personal information.
- Independent Checkup: An independent auditor, usually CPAs or accounting firms, comes to check if the company is following these security rules properly.
- Protecting Your Data: The focus is on protecting your personal information from things like data breaches, unauthorized access, or loss. This means making sure that only the right people can see or use your data and that it's kept safe from hackers or other threats.
- Trust Indicator: When a company is SOC 2 compliant, it means they have passed the checkup and are following best practices to keep your data secure. Think of it as having a seal of approval that they are trustworthy with your information.
At every level, Venngo undergoes strict audits to ensure we keep customer and client data secure. Furthermore, Venngo is dedicated to continuously perform SOC 2 audits to maintain and to consistently meet our customer’s needs.
