Major Update: SOC 2 Type II Compliance

Achieving SOC 2 Type II compliance, Visla has reinforced its commitment to top-tier data security and trust. This certification ensures that our clients’ sensitive information remains protected through rigorous security practices and continuous risk management. Here’s what this means for you.

What is SOC 2 Type II Compliance?

SOC 2 Type II compliance is a widely recognized security standard established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). It is designed for companies that handle customer data, especially in cloud-based environments. The SOC 2 audit assesses an organization’s internal controls and processes over time, specifically focusing on five Trust Services Criteria: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.

Visla’s recent achievement of this compliance highlights our commitment to maintaining the highest level of security for our clients. This certification is not a one-time assessment but an ongoing process that evaluates how well we manage data security and risk over time. With this compliance, Visla meets industry-leading standards for safeguarding customer information and upholding the highest levels of trust.

What This Means for Visla and You

Visla is in line with SOC 2 Type II Compliance

Visla’s SOC 2 Type II compliance assures clients and partners that we adhere to rigorous data security practices. This includes secure development processes, strict data privacy controls, and a proactive approach to risk management.

Clients can confidently rely on Visla’s platform for video creation, collaboration, and sharing, knowing their data is protected. This covers the secure operation of our Teamspaces, where users collaborate on video projects. Through controlled permissions and data sharing, only authorized individuals have access to sensitive information, minimizing the risk of unauthorized breaches.

Data privacy is a critical element of our compliance. SOC 2 Type II standards require the implementation of strict protocols that govern how sensitive data is handled, shared, and stored. For instance, secure Teamspace creation ensures that all video projects and associated information remain private and protected. Workspace owners have full control over data access, ownership transfer, and data deletion, empowering them to manage their environment securely.

Risk management is another crucial aspect of SOC 2 Type II compliance at Visla. Our proactive risk identification and mitigation strategies allow us to anticipate potential threats and minimize risks associated with data handling and user transitions. In addition, our secure data deletion practices ensure that sensitive information is not left vulnerable during data transfers or after project completion.

At Visla, security is not static; it continuously evolves. SOC 2 Type II compliance mandates regular security reviews and updates to ensure that we stay ahead of emerging threats. This means our systems are consistently tested, updated, and improved to protect user data. As a result, clients benefit from our ongoing commitment to enhancing our security measures.

For businesses, this level of compliance is essential in choosing a trustworthy partner. It not only ensures that data is secure but also that the service provider is accountable for maintaining the confidentiality and integrity of client information. Visla’s adherence to these stringent standards reflects our commitment to building and maintaining trust with our clients and partners
