New Compliance Designation Demonstrates Commitment to Data Security

Evident, a leading provider of automated third-party insurance verification and credentialing services for enterprises, has successfully completed a System and Organization Controls (SOC 2) Type II audit of industry-standard security controls with zero exceptions. “A voluntary compliance standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), this certification reinforces Evident’s commitment to ensuring privacy and data protection best practices for their customers and their customers’ third-party networks.

SOC 2 compliance certification is recognized globally for its rigor in the review of the organization’s systems and controls. SOC 2 is an independent audit conducted to review the company’s effective implementation of employee controls and training, IT systems and risk management control, product discipline, and vendor selection.

“Security has always been at the forefront of our technology, and achieving SOC 2 Type II compliance is just one of the many ways we’re demonstrating our promise to protect our customers’ data and that of their third-party partners,” said Evident founder and CEO, David Thomas. “This new designation is a testament to the design of our platform and the way that we protect  sensitive information.”

Beyond underscoring Evident’s dedication to being a reliable and trusted insurance verification partner for enterprises, the certification also enables the company to be more proactive in protecting personal data from imminent threats and to better prepare for future breach scenarios.

“Completing a SOC 2 Type II audit provides our customers with third-party validation of our commitment to data protection and security,” said Evident’s SVP of business development, David Wellner. “We provide world-class automated and scalable insurance verification and credentialing, while giving our customers the confidence and peace of mind that Evident is safely managing their sensitive data.”
