We completed our System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2® Type 1 examination. Here’s what that means for you.

When you bring on a technology partner, whether for staff augmentation, software development, or data and AI work, you’re not just trusting them with deliverables. You’re trusting them with access to systems, data, and processes that matter to your business. That trust needs to be backed by something concrete.

That’s exactly why we pursued this examination. We recently completed our SOC 2® Type 1 examination, conducted by Prescient Security and Assurance, a global leader in cybersecurity. 

What is SOC 2®?

System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2® is an auditing framework developed by the AICPA (American Institute of Certified Public Accountants). It’s the widely recognized standard in the U.S. for evaluating how a service organization manages security, availability, and confidentiality.

A Type 1 report assesses whether the right controls are designed and in place at a specific point in time. It’s the rigorous first step companies take before moving to Type 2, which evaluates how those controls perform over time.

What does this mean for our clients?

If you’re an IT leader, operations manager, or anyone responsible for vendor due diligence, you’ve probably had to ask providers: “How do you protect our data?” or “What security practices do you follow?” That conversation is now a lot simpler with us.

Through this examination, we established documented proof of the policies, procedures, and control activities that safeguard our clients’ sensitive data, infrastructure, business practices, and software code. Prescient Security confirmed that our controls were suitably designed to meet the Trust Services Criteria for security and to support our service commitments. For our clients, that means:

  • Greater confidence when engaging Ensitech as a technology partner.
  • Increased transparency around our security and governance practices.
  • Support during vendor due diligence and procurement reviews.
  • A stronger foundation for protecting business and customer information.
  • Continued investment in operational maturity and risk management.

 

While no single examination can eliminate risk, this milestone reflects our commitment to continuously strengthening the processes and controls that support our clients’ business objectives.

"This process allowed us to strengthen our information security practices, formalize our controls, and build an organizational culture centered on data protection and continuous improvement."

 

Why this is the right moment for us to do this

Nearshore technology partnerships are growing , and so is the scrutiny around them. More U.S. companies than ever are extending their engineering teams across borders, and the expectations around security and compliance have risen accordingly. Mid-market companies especially are now fielding the same security questions from their own clients that used to be reserved for enterprise contracts.

We work closely with our clients as an extension of their team. That means we need to operate under the same standards they hold themselves to. Completing this examination with Prescient Security is part of how we live up to that.

Technology environments continue to evolve, and so do security expectations. At Ensitech, we view security, governance, and operational excellence as ongoing responsibilities rather than one-time initiatives. Completing our SOC 2® Type 1 examination is an important milestone, but it’s one step in a longer journey.
