NEWPORT BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FundingShield, a fintech focused on wire and title fraud prevention in the financial services market, today announced its successful completion of its SOC 2 audit.
The SOC 2 audit was conducted by leading compliance assessor A-LIGN, a technology-enabled security and compliance partner trusted by more than 2,500 global organizations to help mitigate cybersecurity risks.
“We are pleased to have achieved the SOC 2 certification,” said Ike Suri, CEO of FundingShield. “The SOC 2 framework provides an additional measure of our information security and process controls in managing mission critical applications for the financial services industry. As a cybersecurity and fraud prevention company, the SOC framework is a baseline level of security that we meet and continue to exceed as we help our clients deal with increased cyber threats from bad actors around the globe. Achieving this certification is one reflection of the many steps we take to address the security needs of our current and future clients.”
Established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), the SOC 2 examination is designed for organizations of any size, regardless of industry and scope, to ensure the personal assets of their potential and existing customers are protected. SOC 2 reports are recognized globally and affirm that a company’s infrastructure, software, people, data, policies, procedures, and operations have been formally reviewed. The auditors have confirmed that FundingShield has designed and implemented effective security controls of its systems.
“Congratulations to FundingShield for completing their SOC 2 audit, a widely recognized signal of trust and security," said Steve Simmons, COO of A-LIGN. "It's great to work with organizations like FundingShield who understand the value of expertise in driving an efficient audit and the importance of a high-quality final report."
