Instana announced that the company has successfully achieved SOC 2 Compliance for its organization and Application Performance Management (APM) solution.

The achievement of SOC 2 Compliance highlights that Instana’s security controls are appropriately designed, implemented, and maintained, which is another accolade in the company’s dedication and history of focusing on security and data compliance efforts.

“Instana’s achievement of SOC 2 compliance is a significant step demonstrating our continued commitment to the security within our organizations and SaaS APM platform,” said Chris Farrell, Director of Communications at Instana. “The compliance certification is proof of Instana’s processes and efforts around privacy and security, so that we can maintain a secure status for information classification, while also handling risk, vulnerability and threat assessments.”

Instana’s SOC 2 compliance confirms that an independent third-party full review of the organization’s security has been verified as meeting the needed design of controls regarding availability, processing integrity, and confidentiality of the service for both product and corporate security.

For customers that have internal SOC 2 requirements, Instana’s SOC 2 compliance status meets the requirements of security teams to meet certification programs and third-party assessments. This is critical as companies are increasingly embracing SaaS across IT Operations and mandate SOC 2 prior to deploying any SaaS solution.
