Sigstr continues to be extremely committed to keeping its customers’ data and accounts very secure. With that said, we are extremely excited to announce that Sigstr recently attained SOC 2 Type 1 certification.
SOC 2 is an independent audit of internal controls and policies in place that keep Sigstr secure. SOC stands for Service & Organization Controls and is overseen by the AICPA. These audits measure organizations based on the AICPA’s Trust Criteria and include:
- Security
- Availability
- Processing Integrity
- Confidentiality
- Privacy
SaaS companies can choose which Trust Criteria to be audited against and Sigstr was audited for all 5. SOC 2 audits include an extensive review of internal policies that pertain to information security, software development, logical access, monitoring controls, human resources, and more.
