Engaging an independent auditor to examine and report on Smart Meterโ€™s controls provides Smart Meter the ability to understand how to meet the needs of its partners and provides an objective evaluation of the effectiveness of controls that address operations and compliance. Smart Meter has the only private data network for RPM in the United States.

โ€œBy undergoing this independent review of our controls, Smart Meter has proven that its partner and patient data are always secure with our network,โ€ said Smart Meter CEO Casey Pittock. โ€œGaining this certification is noteworthy, but we will continue to improve our robust security protocols since cybersecurity is an ongoing battle.โ€

The SOC 2 audit included the review of risk assessment, procedures, information and communications systems, and ongoing monitoring. This extensive review of Smart Meterโ€™s data security protocols reaffirms that we are protecting customer data from unauthorized access and theft and that doing so is a priority for Smart Meter.
