Fortifying Trust: why UpperBee’s SOC 2 compliance redefines security standards
May 1, 2024 | Property Management, Security, Software | Manager
In an era dominated by digital interactions and data-driven operations, the security of sensitive information has become paramount for businesses and clients alike.
As companies increasingly rely on external providers for services ranging from cloud storage to software solutions, the need to ensure that these partners adhere to rigorous security standards cannot be overstated. Two essential frameworks in this regard are SOC 2 (Service Organization Control 2) and ISO 27001, each designed to fortify the digital fortresses of organizations.
Let’s delve into why businesses should prioritize providers with these certifications, with a specific focus on UpperBee’s SOC 2 implementation and the value it brings to customers.
Guardians of security: SOC 2 and ISO 27001
SOC 2 and ISO 27001 are internationally recognized standards that set the benchmark for information security management systems. SOC 2, established by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA), focuses specifically on service providers’ systems handling customer data. It encompasses criteria such as security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.
On the other hand, ISO 27001 is a global standard that provides a systematic approach to managing sensitive information. Developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), it outlines a risk-based framework for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an information security management system.
