A SOC 2 audit provides an independent, third-party validation that a service organization’s information security practices meet industry standards stipulated by the AICPA. During the audit, a service organization’s non-financial reporting controls as they relate to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy of a system are tested. The SOC 2 report delivered by KirkpatrickPrice verifies the suitability of the design and operating effectiveness of Oro’s controls to meet the standards for these criteria.
Oro’s commitment to best-in-class organizational security practices mirrors the powerful security features seen in Oro applications (OroCommerce, OroMarketplace, OroCRM and OroPlatform), which use open-source architecture and powerful access controls and permission settings to ensure security across all business processes and all aspects of the buyer/seller relationship. With layered configuration, enterprise-grade encryption, and hourly backups and audit logs, Oro applications are designed to protect both merchants’ own data and their customer’s information at every step of the eCommerce journey.
