Security and Trust Through Compliance
We are excited to announce that KatRisk has successfully earned the SOC 2 Type 2 certification from Accorp Partners, a highly regarded cybersecurity and compliance firm. This achievement underscores our unwavering commitment to delivering secure and dependable services to our valued clients.
The SOC 2 Type 2 certification comprehensively evaluates an organization's security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy controls. By meeting the stringent criteria set forth by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), KatRisk has demonstrated its capability to safeguard critical client information and maintain a high level of trust.
Our certification path included rigorous penetration testing conducted by cybersecurity experts from Network Intelligence LLC. These tests were instrumental in evaluating the effectiveness of our security measures and uncovering potential vulnerabilities. They provided us with invaluable insights into the strengths of our system and areas where enhancements were needed.
Lessons Learned:
Identification of Vulnerabilities: The penetration tests brought specific vulnerabilities within our systems to light before they were deployed for production. We could promptly address and remediate through our process. This proactive approach has strengthened our security posture.
Enhanced Preparedness: By subjecting our systems to real-world attack simulations, we have become better prepared to detect and respond to potential security threats in the future.
Continuous Improvement: We recognize that cybersecurity is an ongoing journey. Our experience with the SOC 2 certification process and penetration tests has emphasized the importance of continuous improvement in maintaining a high level of trust with our clients.
Our KatRisk team has invested significant effort in ensuring that our systems and processes align with the highest security standards. We view this accomplishment, coupled with the insights gained from penetration testing, as a testament to our continual dedication to protecting our client's data and delivering exceptional service.
As we continue to expand and evolve, our unwavering focus remains on upholding a secure and reliable environment for our clients. We sincerely thank you for entrusting KatRisk's SpatialKat platform hosted Solutions.
