SaaS customers today expect the highest levels of compliance standards when securing their data and ensuring that vendors meet their data confidentiality and privacy needs. An independent validation of security and availability controls becomes more crucial for those in highly regulated industries. As cybersecurity rises to the top of the IT risk management agenda, customers are increasingly seeking additional assurance pertaining to systems and data privacy, confidentiality, availability, processing integrity and security.Â
In short, we know how important security is for our customers. This is why we recently announced that Zenoss has successfully completed the System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Type 1 audit. This audit report by BDO certifies the security and availability of Zenoss Cloud.
Our Commitment to SaaS Security
SOC is an internationally recognized auditing standard created by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). The SOC 2 Type 1 report provides an analysis of a service organization’s systems, as well as the suitability of the design and operating effectiveness of the organization’s controls to meet the objectives.Â
During a rigorous period of examination, independent auditor BDO assessed Zenoss controls and determined that they meet or exceeded the AICPA’s SOC 2 - SOC for Services Organizations: Trust Services Criteria. The review validated how Zenoss’ internal controls ensure the security, availability and processing integrity of the systems the company uses to process customers’ data, ensuring the confidentiality and privacy of that data.Â
The audit certifies that Zenoss procedures, policies and operations meet the trust services criteria for security, availability, process integrity and confidentiality. These reports are intended to meet the needs of a broad range of users that need detailed information and assurance about the controls at a service organization relevant to security, availability, and integrity of these systems.
Our commitment to the highest standards of security will further strengthen and validate our compliance efforts, giving customers and prospects even more trust in Zenoss. For more information on Zenoss Cloud or the SOC 2 report, please contact info@zenoss.com.
