By Chris Rickard · May 17th, 2024
You can trust Userdoc to keep your data safe and secure.
At Userdoc, we're committed to maintaining the highest standards of data security and integrity. Today, we're thrilled to announce that we have achieved SOC 2 Type 1 compliance, a significant milestone that underscores our dedication to protecting our customers' data.
What is SOC 2 Type 1 Compliance?
SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is a rigorous auditing procedure developed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) that ensures service providers securely manage data to protect the privacy and interests of their clients.
Achieving SOC 2 Type 1 compliance means that Userdoc has been evaluated by an independent auditor and has met the necessary standards for managing customer data based on the five Trust service principles
- Security
- Availability
- Processing integrity
- Confidentiality
- Privacy
Why Does SOC2 Compliance Matter?
In an era where data breaches and cyber threats are ever-present, achieving SOC 2 compliance demonstrates our proactive approach to data security.
We know our customers trust us with their sensitive data, and we take that responsibility seriously. This certification reassures our customers that Userdoc has the controls and processes in place to safeguard their sensitive information.
The Journey to Compliance
Achieving SOC 2 Type 1 compliance is no small feat!
It involved a comprehensive review of our systems, processes, tools, documentation, and controls.
Our team worked tirelessly to ensure that every aspect of our operation met or exceeded the stringent requirements set forth by the AICPA, and we then worked with an independent auditor to verify our compliance.
What’s Next?
While SOC 2 Type 1 compliance is a significant achievement, it's just the beginning. We are committed to continuous improvement and will be pursuing SOC 2 Type 2 compliance in the near future. This is a significant undertaking, and will involve regular ongoing audits and evaluations to ensure that our security measures remain robust and effective over time.
