These achievements demonstrate the company’s commitment to protecting customer data in accordance with the strict security standards of Fortune 500 companies. These achievements are also the key to unlock the CISO’s door for many business leaders that want to purchase the Apica Ascent products
“Good information security is the result of everyone in the organization understanding how and why we do things in a certain way, and we’ve worked diligently to provide that training at every level,” said Jonas Ramsin, Head of Information Security at Apica. “This wouldn’t have been possible without buy-in from the top levels of the leadership team. It’s been a fulfilling journey to improve our understanding of these requirements, create the policies and procedures, and implement security best practices throughout the business.”
Developed by the International Organization for Standardization Standards, ISO27001 security certification is indicative of an organization’s commitment to not only implement but also maintain and evolve an information security system. It also encompasses requirements for the business to assess and address information security risks specifically applicable to the business.
SOC 2 type 2 reports entail detailed internal information relating to a service organization’s secure systems for processing user data and ensuring confidentiality. These reports provide important context for customers looking to address the risks of doing business with the organization. These reports, covering Apica Synthetic Monitoring and Apica LoadTest, will be made available to current and potential Apica customers once a nondisclosure agreement is in place.
