For Immediate Release / May 30, 2022 / Fremont, CA
Confection achieved its SOC 2 – Type 1 certification in March of 2022. SOC 2 – Type 1 assesses the design of security processes at a specific point in time. SOC 2 – Type 2 certification, however, focuses on a service organization's security control effectiveness by observing operations for a number of months. Our team has now demonstrated its sustained, ongoing commitment to administrative, technical, and security excellence.
Confection, a data generator for technology professionals, today announced that the company has successfully completed its Systems and Organizational Control (SOC) 2 – Type 2 examination. SOC 2 reports focus on a service organization’s internal controls designed to meet its service commitments and system requirements based on the administrative, technical and logical controls criteria established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). The examination was conducted by Dansa D’Arata Soucia LLP. In doing so, Confection maintains its adherence to one of the most stringent, industry-accepted compliance frameworks for service organizations and provides additional assurance to its clients, through an independent auditor, that its business process, information technology and risk management controls are properly designed and operating as intended.
The official auditors’ report provides a thorough review of Confection internal controls, policies, and processes for its data generation system. It also reviews Confection processes relating to risk management and subservice (vendor) due diligence, as well as Confection entire IT infrastructure, software development life cycle, change management, logical security, network security, physical & environmental security, and computer operations.
