What is SOC 2?
SOC 2 is a compliance standard from the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) that outlines guidelines for SaaS companies to protect customer data. It assesses organizations based on five Trust Services Criteria: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. SOC 2 compliance requires an external audit and includes two types of reports:
- SOC 2 Type 1: Verifies a company's compliance at a single point in time.
- SOC 2 Type 2: Assesses if a company maintains compliance over an extended period, typically 3 to 12 months.
Why SOC 2 compliance matters to us
We pursued SOC 2 certification to reinforce our commitment to building trust with our customers. As an API integration infrastructure company, we understand that customers entrust us with their own customers' data. That's why we adopted a zero-liability principle—avoiding any caching or storage of your customers' third-party data on our servers—significantly reducing liability and enhancing data protection. This approach helped us meet SOC 2 confidentiality requirements seamlessly. Our dedication to high security standards enabled us not only to fulfill the core Security requirement but also to include Confidentiality and Availability in our Type 1 report.
Security assessment
As part of the compliance process, Unified.to underwent a thorough independent security assessment. This evaluation included an extensive review of our security protocols, infrastructure, and data handling practices to ensure alignment with SOC 2 standards
