Los Angeles, July 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Proto Inc. announced today that it has received its SOC 2 Type II Report, achieving compliance with the rigorous security and privacy standards outlined in the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) SOC 2 framework. The SOC 2 Type II certification sets the standard for data security and privacy compliance across the industry, and after an extensive audit process, a third-party auditor found Proto in full compliance with all requirements. Proto is the only hologram company to achieve SOC 2 Type 2 certification.
The independent assessment of Proto’s security safeguards provides detailed information and assurance about the controls relevant to the security, availability, and processing integrity of the systems used to process users' data, as well as the confidentiality and privacy of the information.
