SlateSafety™, a leader in preventing injuries with real-time alerts via their connected safety wearable, the BAND V2, announced today the completion of the System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Type I audit for their Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) software platform.
The examination of SlateSafety’s system followed strict adherence to the standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and found no deviations based on the Trust Services Criteria for security and confidentiality and the controls to meet these criteria.
“We are thrilled to announce that SlateSafety has achieved SOC 2 compliance,” said Joe Boettcher, Co-founder and Chief Development Officer at SlateSafety. “This accomplishment demonstrates our unwavering commitment to maintaining the highest levels of security, confidentiality and privacy for our customers’ data. We understand the importance of protecting sensitive information and are proud to have undergone the rigorous third-party audit process to validate our internal controls.
