Press Release - SOC 2 Type 2 Compliance Achieved!

We are pleased to announce that AdvantageCS has recently been issued the final draft of our SOC 2 Type 2 audit report! To achieve this critical third-party assessment, ACS has undergone a rigorous independent audit to ensure that our security protocols and use of data meet strict data security requirements.

SOC 2 is a cybersecurity compliance framework which ensures that organizations handle client data securely. To pass a SOC 2 Type 2 audit, organizations must demonstrate over several months (or up to a year!) that they have rigorous internal controls for security, confidentiality, processing integrity, privacy, and availability of client data. (Read more about SOC 2 here)

Bryan Varblow, Executive Vice President and COO at AdvantageCS, said, “Undergoing an independent audit of our internal controls around security, availability, and confidentiality can give our clients greater confidence in AdvantageCS as a partner.  By taking this important step of moving ahead from a Type 1 to a Type 2 audit, we've proven that our controls have been successfully implemented in these areas.  As we continue with this audit annually, our publishing and membership partners can trust in us to securely provide the critical software and services they need in this rapidly moving business.”
