Sync achieves SOC 2 Type II compliance

A major milestone in our commitment to security and excellence

We are thrilled to announce that Sync Computing has successfully completed a System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Type II audit, performed by Sensiba LLP (Sensiba). This marks a significant milestone in our ongoing commitment to maintaining the highest standards of security, availability, and privacy for our customers. 

SOC 2 is an industry standard compliance certification which is issued by independent auditors. It assesses how effective an organization’s security measures and controls are, over an extended period. Our SOC 2 Type II compliance demonstrates that we have implemented policies to operate according to security best practices, and that our implementations have been tested and verified by an independent third-party. 

Understanding SOC 2 Type II compliance

The SOC 2 Type II audit, developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), is a rigorous evaluation of a company’s information security measures. It goes beyond a simple snapshot of security controls, with independent auditors assessing the effectiveness of operations over a six-month period. This comprehensive audit ensures that an organization not only has robust security measures in place but also consistently maintains and enforces them.

We are proud to report that Sync Computing is SOC 2 Type II compliant! The SOC 2 audit resulted in a “clean” audit opinion from Sensiba, with no noted exceptions. This outcome demonstrates our unwavering dedication to maintaining the highest standards of security and operational excellence.

Why SOC 2 Type II compliance matters

As organizations increasingly rely on cloud-based solutions and third-party vendors, the need for trust and transparency in handling sensitive information has never been greater. SOC 2 Type II compliance provides organizations with independent assurance of a vendor’s security practices.
