Cogniac’s completion of Type 2 SOC 2 compliance in the Security Trust Service Principle demonstrates the high cyber-security standards of the platform, protecting the data and privacy of customers and vendors. The audit seeks to identify gaps in coverage which could allow attackers or malicious entities access to confidential or private information. Cogniac undertook the process to ensure the platform provides the best possible experience for customers and partners, and most importantly, their safety.
“Cogniac’s successful completion of the SOC 2 evaluation is evidence that we invest in the protection of our customers’ data,” said Richard Meyer, vice president of Operations and Programs at Cogniac. “Our platform and model only succeed if we’re protecting the data and privacy of our customers. We understand this process is optional for organizations like ours, but we’re driven by our values of ‘Innovation’ and ‘Security’ and hold them as elemental to our work as a developer of AI, a product vendor, and a technology partner.”

- Availability – Performance Monitoring, Disaster Recovery, and Incident Handling
- Processing – Encryption, Access Controls, and Firewalls
- Integrity – Quality Assurance and Process Monitoring
- Privacy – Access Control, Multi-Factor Authentication, and Encryption
