“Brightsquid has always taken security and privacy protection very seriously,” explained Rohit Joshi, Brightsquid CEO. “Completion of this audit proves the culture of privacy and security we live and breathe every day.”
Established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), the SOC 2 audit ensures the private assets of potential and existing customers are protected. SOC 2 reports are recognized globally and affirm that the full scope of a company’s operations have been formally reviewed.
The SOC 2 audit focuses on five key areas, which are known as the Trust Services Criteria:
- Security: Protection of system resources against unauthorized access.
- Availability: Accessibility of the system as stipulated by a contract or service level agreement.
- Processing Integrity: Ensuring that system processing is complete, valid, accurate, timely, and authorized.
- Confidentiality: Protection of information that is designated as confidential.
- Privacy: Management and protection of personal information in accordance with the organization’s privacy policies.
“Congratulations to Brightsquid Secure Communications Corp. for completing their SOC 2 audit, a widely recognized signal of trust and security,” said Steve Simmons, COO of A-LIGN. “It’s great to work with organizations like Brightsquid, who understand the importance of secure operational structures.”
Going forward, Brightsquid will perform an annual SOC 2 assessment. Furthermore, the report is available upon execution of a non-disclosure agreement. If you are interested in viewing Brightsquid’s SOC 2 report, please submit your request at brightsquid.com/contact.
