Certification validates company’s commitment to global data security standards
BOSTON – September 22, 2021 – Immuta, the leader in universal cloud data access control, today announced its SaaS deployment option received Service Organization Control (SOC 2) Type 2 certification, further validating the company’s commitment to providing the most robust data security and privacy for its rapidly growing customer base.
The SOC 2 Type 2 certification is an independent audit assessing internal controls involving security, availability, and confidentiality of the data processed on behalf of customers, as defined by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ (AICPA) Trust Services Criteria. As part of the audit, Immuta demonstrated the robustness of its data protection policies and procedures, including the security of the data held, the confidentiality of the data processed, and the availability of that data to those that had permission to access it.
“Trust and transparency are a crucial part of being a premier technology partner and achieving a SOC 2 Type 2 certification is an important achievement for any SaaS provider,” said Mike Scott, Chief Information Security Officer, Immuta. “As organizations invest in more SaaS solutions to securely navigate today’s complex cloud landscape and safely collect and store an immense amount of data, they will look to partners who have a proven history of strong privacy practices. Immuta achieving the SOC 2 Type 2 certification assures customers that we will keep their data safe, allowing them to focus on their business goals. At Immuta, we consider SOC 2 Type 2 to be the minimum baseline for our security program.”
