In an ever-evolving technological landscape, ensuring the security, availability, and confidentiality of client data is a top priority.

After obtaining SOC 2 Type 1 certification, UpperBee has taken another major step in cybersecurity and data protection by achieving SOC 2 Type 2 certification, reaffirming our commitment to protecting your data.

This internationally recognized certification not only validates the design of our security controls but also attests to their ongoing effectiveness over an extended period.

What is SOC 2 Type 2 certification?

SOC 2 (Service Organization Control Type 2) is a compliance standard developed by the AICPA (American Institute of Certified Public Accountants). Unlike SOC 2 Type 1, which validates the presence of security controls at a single point in time, SOC 2 Type 2 assesses their effectiveness and reliability over several months.

What does this mean for our clients?

• Enhanced security measures: Our cybersecurity protocols have been evaluated not only for their design but also for their continuous effectiveness. From advanced encryption to strict access controls, every aspect of our system is designed to ensure the protection of your data. This proactive approach strengthens our defenses against potential threats and guarantees that your information remains secure at all times.
• Increased availability and reliability : Uninterrupted access is essential for a seamless client experience. Our infrastructure and processes have been rigorously audited to ensure consistent and reliable access to UpperBee’s services. Clients can trust that their data is always accessible, enhancing operational efficiency and business continuity.
• Preserving confidentiality and data protection :At UpperBee, we recognize the importance of protecting sensitive client information. We implement strict security measures to ensure your data remains private, protected, and handled with the utmost confidentiality.
• Ongoing compliance and peace of mind :Unlike a one-time certification, SOC 2 Type 2 demonstrates that our security controls are rigorously applied and continuously monitored over several months. This ensures our clients can manage their properties with complete peace of mind, knowing their data is protected by industry-leading security protocols.
• A competitive advantage for our clients :Partnering with a SOC 2 Type 2 certified provider offers an additional layer of trust and credibility. This certification strengthens our clients’ compliance efforts, enhances their brand reputation in security and confidentiality, and provides a competitive edge in their industry.

‘‘At UpperBee, we continuously invest in strengthening our security systems to provide our clients with a reliable platform that meets the highest industry standards.’’
