Action1, a provider of an integrated real-time vulnerability discovery and automated patch management solution, is pleased to announce that it has successfully reaffirmed its System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Type II and ISO 27001:2022 certifications. This significant milestone underscores Action1’s ongoing commitment to maintaining the highest information security standards in handling customer data and information. Action1 has emerged as one of the first patch management vendors to achieve these certifications.
The rigorous certification and auditing processes were conducted by Johanson Group LLP, a premier certification body known for helping organizations meet global compliance standards. Johanson Group specializes in SOC 2 and ISO 27001 audits and provides audit and professional services to public and private companies, large and small, in a variety of industries.
ISO/IEC 27001 is the world’s best-known standard for information security management systems (ISMS). Conformity with ISO/IEC 27001 means that an organization or business has put in place a system to manage risks related to the security of data owned or handled by the company.
Moreover, SOC 2 Type II compliance provides a higher level of assurance that data is being protected consistently over time. Developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), this information security standard is a report aimed to validate controls relevant to security, availability, integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. SOC 2 has rigorous requirements on how companies handle customer data and information, so compliance guarantees there are established and implemented organizational practices in place to safeguard customer data.
Action1 has achieved SOC 2 Type II compliance with enhanced 12-month audit, proving continuous, year-round compliance with very strict security requirements, affirming that secure systems and controls are maintained by Action1 on an ongoing basis.
Achieving the SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001:2022 certifications show our dedication to providing secure and reliable services to our customers. Cybersecurity is at the heart of everything we do, and these certifications further validate our efforts to ensure the security of our customers. We are committed to ongoing investments in our security practices to maintain and enhance this level of excellence.
Mike Walters, President and co-founder of Action1.
