Proving Information Security Controls are in place to Process Data, Protect Confidentiality, and Privacy


DENVER, June 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pax8, the leading cloud commerce marketplace, today announced it has completed the Service Organization Control for Service Organizations (SOC 2) type 1 examination to assess information security controls over its system relevant to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.

SOC 2 is a voluntary compliance standard for service organizations, developed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA), which specifies how organizations should manage customer data. SOC 2 is a globally recognized report for cybersecurity risk management controls, developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) to inform organizations about implementing security controls of the service organizations they choose.
