Heimdal is delighted to announce that it has once again received accreditation for ISAE 3000 SOC 2 Type II for the 3rd time in a row, demonstrating its unwavering dedication to providing the highest level of data protection and security for its clients. The SOC 2 reports, issued under the ISAE 3000 standard, are based on the Trust Services Criteria, which encompass principles and criteria for security, availability, confidentiality, processing integrity, and privacy.
The ISAE 3000 SOC 2 is essential to assure our customers of the robustness of Heimdal’s control environment, which is meticulously designed and implemented to mitigate key operational risks. The certification necessitated a comprehensive assessment of every facet of Heimdal’s ethical practices, including our processes, internal controls, standard operating procedures, data security, a transparent paper trail, and documented assurance reporting.
Achieving and maintaining this standard demanded responsibility and diligence across all sectors of the business, not just for the compliance department that oversees the standard requirements.
This certification has evolved into a foundational document for our operations, and we believe it has enriched our business by ensuring that customer confidentiality, privacy, and security are central to all decisions made at Heimdal.
Volintirescu Mihaela, Compliance Manager Heimdal
This is an important accreditation for a cybersecurity firm since it demonstrates the organization’s dedication to responsibility, transparency, and ethical business practices, all of which are becoming more crucial in today’s world of social consciousness and sustainability.
The ISAE 3000 security standard plays a pivotal role in our journey towards privacy and GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) compliance, which stands as a paramount objective for our company. Attaining the highest level of privacy and GDPR compliance is not just a goal; it’s a cornerstone in building stronger and more trustworthy relationships with our valued customers.
The main difference between Heimdal Security SOC 2 Type I and Type II reports is that the Type II report includes an assessment of Heimdal Security’s internal environment during a testing period. The Heimdal Security SOC 2 Type II report can attest to and evaluate the effectiveness of controls during this extended evaluation period. The SOC Type I report, in contrast, only assesses the adequacy of design and implementation.
Reaching this milestone is important for us because it confirms our ongoing commitment to the highest standards of operational effectiveness and security. Our procedures’ depth for operations and compliance are reliably visible and transparent thanks to the SOC 2 Type II / ISAE 3000 accreditation. Our customers may rely on us to host their private data and vital information. This accomplishment gives our partners and clients confidence that all of our products adhere to security best practices.
Morten Kjaersgaard, CEO Heimdal
The Trust Services Criteria include not just strict security criteria but also a thorough internal control architecture that includes risk management and personnel follow-up procedures to guarantee control over security and data.
