Achieving SOC 2 compliance isn’t just a checkbox—it’s a powerful signal of commitment to security and customer trust. In this piece, I walk through Netography Fusion®’s rigorous journey to earn SOC 2, and why it matters for your organization.


🛡️ What SOC 2 Covers

SOC 2 verifies that a service provider protects your data across five critical areas:

  • Availability ✅ – Ensuring reliable uptime

  • Processing Integrity – Running systems correctly

  • Confidentiality – Keeping sensitive information private

  • Privacy – Safeguarding personal data


💼 Behind the Scenes: Building Compliance

Even with the most seasoned security team, getting SOC 2 requires:

  • Retrofitting existing measures into audit-ready, documented controls

  • Overhauling practices across engineering and operations

  • Months of focused effort involving independent auditors


🤝 What It Means for You

  • Empowered trust – Clients see documented proof of Netography’s commitment to securing their data
