1 min read

I get asked this question a lot: “Why did ImageQuest get a SOC 2 attestation, and why would I as a customer care? The simple answer is this: you can take us at our word as service providers that we’re doing these things, we have the proper security controls in place, and we have the proper controls around all of our actions. But without being SOC 2 examined, you really are taking us at our word.

What Does the SOC 2 Attestation Mean?

Our SOC 2 Type II report means we’ve paid a third-party audit company to come in and test those security controls, validate those controls, and ensure that everything we’ve told you we’re doing, we are actually doing on a consistent basis.

Why Should I as a Customer Care About Your SOC 2 Attestation?

At the end of the day, it’s really a value decision you need to make as an organization. In today’s world, with today’s threats, do you want to trust someone, or do you want to trust and verify that your provider has a current SOC 2 Type II report?
