Since May 1, 2017, the Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements 18, or SSAE 18, has served as the newest standard by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for evaluating how organizations conduct business. This includes how sensitive information gets stored, how third-party relationships get managed, and how organizations assess and mitigate cybersecurity threats.

Secure Data Recovery Services receives independent service audits in three SSAE 18 Service Organization Control groups, or SOCs:

  • SOC 1 Type II: a report on control systems at a service organization related to user entities’ internal control over financial reporting. This evaluates the accuracy of how an organization describes its control systems, the suitability of their design, and their effectiveness in protecting customer financial data.
  • SOC 2 Type II: a report on controls at a service organization relevant to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. This evaluates the credibility and accuracy of how an organization describes its systems, the suitability of their design, and their operational effectiveness.
  • SOC 3: a report similar in nature and scope to SOC reports about the relevance of a service organization’s security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy in the handling of customer information.

The Importance of SSAE 18 Compliance for Data Recovery

Secure Data Recovery Services engineers regularly conduct complex physical data recovery, which requires invasive physical repairs conducted in a certified Class 10 ISO 4 cleanroom. They also use custom-designed or modified software utilities to recreate file systems and partition table information during intensive logical data recovery operations.
