SECURITYSCORECARD FIRST TO COMPLETE SOC 2 TYPE 1 AUDIT ACROSS SECURITY RATINGS INDUSTRY

SecurityScorecard, the leader in security ratings, today announced the completion of its Service Organization Control for Service Organizations (SOC 2) Type 1 Audit highlighting an important barometer of the company’s security and privacy program maturity.

SOC 2 is an auditing procedure that provides an outside perspective to attest that an organization securely manages data to protect the interests of its organization and the privacy and security of its clients.

In partnership with A-LIGN, an accredited CPA firm, SecurityScorecard underwent a comprehensive examination process to verify that the controls stated in the description were suitably designed to provide reasonable assurance that service commitments and system requirements would be achieved based on the applicable trust services criteria.
 SecurityScorecard released the SOC2 type 1 report for its Security Monitoring and Rating Services System as of March 31, 2019.

“As a trusted partner to our global customer-base, we take our own security posture extremely seriously. Through the completion of audits, such as SOC 2, we can provide our ecosystem with an easy to define litmus test of how we prioritize and measure security within our organization,” said Fouad Khalil, VP of compliance at SecurityScorecard.

In addition to the SOC 2 Type 1 audit completion, SecurityScorecard recently announced the release of the industry’s first Trust Portal, https://trust.securityscorecard.com, which provides transparency and visibility into the methodology and performance of the company’s award-winning security ratings platform. Incorporating trust and transparency into the SecurityScorecard platform is a necessary requirement to be an industry standard for measuring security risk across all industries.
