Metal is SOC 2 Certified
Taylor Lowe
Today, we are excited to announce that we passed our SOC 2 Type II audit, conducted by Advantage Partners, and have received our SOC 2 Type II certification!
What’s SOC 2 and Why is it Important?
SOC 2, short for Service Organization Controls 2, is a framework and audit that evaluates an organization's information security measures. This audit involves an independent review of data security policies, procedures, and their implementation to assess whether these controls are both thoughtfully designed and operating effectively.
The outcome, presented in a SOC 2 report, communicates a company’s commitment to safeguarding data and ensuring the privacy and protection of customer information.
What SOC 2 Means for Metal
For professional investors and funds, SOC 2 is a badge of trust and reliability and a reflection of Metal’s commitment to the highest standards of security and safeguarding of data. By undergoing a SOC 2 audit, our controls and processes were validated by a third-party who attests to the functioning of security controls relevant to our application.
We’re also happy to share that we passed our audit without any exceptions – underscoring our commitment to data security within our product and business operations.
