CelerData, the award-winning unified analytics platform for modern enterprises, announced the successful completion of its latest security audit conducted by Prescient Assurance, LLC, and its achievement of System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Type 1 certification. SOC 2 Type 1 is considered the gold standard for data security and is awarded only to the select few organizations able to pass an extensive and strict audit conducted in accordance with the requirements set forth by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). As a SOC 2 Type 1 certified organization, CelerData can assure both customers and partners that it complies with the stringent industry security standards outlined by AICPA’s Trust Service Criteria.
“SOC 2 Type 1 certification is a major milestone for us,” said James Li, CEO, CelerData. “Data security is of critical importance in the analytics industry. It’s a key pillar in every product we build, but it’s also just as important when it comes to how we operate and work with our customers and partners. This certification is just one more way we’re able to show our commitment to data protection and operational security.”

“This achievement comes at a critical time for the company,” James Li added. “We have seen amazing growth in the last year when it comes to headcount, customers, and partnerships. We are collaborating very closely with all of our stakeholders to keep security at the forefront of how we operate with everyone we work with. We plan to further strengthen this commitment by acquiring our SOC 2 Type 2 certification in the coming months.”
