[Company Name] Achieves SOC 2 Compliance, Reinforcing Its Commitment to Security and Trust
We're proud to announce that [Company Name] is now SOC 2 compliant , marking a major milestone in our ongoing commitment to security, reliability, and transparency for our customers and partners.
This milestone was achieved in close partnership with ZebraByte , who led our compliance process.
SOC 2 compliance provides independent assurance that [Company Name] operates with strong internal controls designed to protect customer data .
For our customers, this means:
SOC 2 is not a one-time checkbox. It represents a continuous commitment to maintaining high standards across our organization.
SOC 2 is a widely recognized compliance framework developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) .
For [Company Name] , the SOC 2 examination focused on the Trust Services Criteria most relevant to how we build and operate our product:
[Keep only Trust Services Criteria on report]
An independent auditor validated that these controls operated effectively over an extended period ( [XX/XX/XXX to XX/XX/XXX] ), providing assurance that our security practices are consistently enforced day to day.
Thanks to ZebraByte 's structured approach and hands-on guidance, we were able to move through the compliance process faster, with clarity, and without disrupting our core operations .
The full SOC 2 Type II report is a restricted-use document and is available to customers and prospective customers under NDA upon request.

Rule to display the official AICPA SOC logo
If you want to display the official AICPA SOC logo on your website, you have to register first.
The report and the trademark are two separate things, and the AICPA has been enforcing this more actively since April 2026.
Registration takes five minutes. You'll need the name and license number of the CPA who signed your report, and the report date.
Register directly on the AICPA & CIMA website (free account required) or ping us to handle it for you.
One more thing: the logo expires. If 12 months pass without a new report, you have to take it down.
ZebraByte logo
Add the ZebraByte logo next to your compliance badge to highlight your certified status.
