“In today’s cyberthreat-infested landscape, proving compliance is now a prerequisite for banks and credit unions. Anticipating customers’ needs for a transparent processes, we are extremely proud of this achievement,” said Nish Shah, CTO at IMM. “Companies must increasingly prove they’re vigilant about protecting themselves and their customers. Customers not only want to know whether you’ve put in place systems and security controls to safeguard their sensitive data, but they demand honesty and transparency in how you handle that data. One of the best ways to provide this assurance is the SOC 2 Type II report.”
System Organization Control (SOC2) is a technical auditing process conducted by independent auditors who measure the availability, security, and integrity of an organization’s unique data processing systems, and ultimately determine whether effective safeguards and controls are in place. To comply with SOC2, IMM demonstrates it has established precise policies and procedures in accordance with the AICPA Trust Services Criteria for security, availability and confidentiality. Additionally, the report verifies the existence of internal controls which have been designed and implemented to meet the requirements for the security principles. This independent validation of security controls is crucial for organizations operating in highly regulated industries such as financial services.

Security compliance audits are essential for both security, profitability and operating effectiveness. As part of the extensive and comprehensive auditing process, IMM worked with 360 Advanced, Inc. for the second year now to pass the SOC 2 audit. While there are several companies that provide a SOC certification, IMM selected 360 Advanced based on their responses to the interview and the quality of their customer service as well as their previous success together on this rigorous audit. Companies are increasingly reliant on a host of cloud-based services to store data in a landscape where breaches are rising. IMM provides an added layer of protection that can assure partners that security problems are a thing of the past.
