Forward Thinking Systems (FTS), a leading provider of fleet management solutions, announces the successful completion of its Type 2 SOC 2® audit in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) standards. “We are very pleased with the results of our SOC 2 audit. This report assures our customers that we are committed to the highest standards of security and data protection,” said David Isler, CEO of Forward Thinking Systems. ” Trust is a critical part of our business. As a leader in the fleet management industry, we need to set the standard by ensuring safeguards are in place for our customers’ business-critical and personal data. This report reinforces our position, keeping all our customers, whether they have three vehicles or three thousand, a few steps ahead.”
Established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), the SOC 2 examination is designed for organizations of any size, regardless of industry and scope, to ensure the personal assets of their potential and existing customers are protected. SOC 2 reports are recognized globally and affirm that a company’s infrastructure, software, people, data, policies, procedures and operations have been formally reviewed.
The SOC 2 audit was conducted by leading compliance assessor A-LIGN, a technology-enabled security and compliance partner trusted by more than 2,500 global organizations to help mitigate cybersecurity risks. “Congratulations to Forward Thinking Systems for earning their SOC 2 report, which is a widely recognized signal of trust and security,” said Steve Simmons, COO of A-LIGN. “It’s great to work with organizations like Forward Thinking Systems who understand the value of expertise in driving an efficient audit and the importance of a high-quality final report.”
Forward Thinking Systems will perform a SOC 2 assessment on an annual basis and can make a SOC 3 report (the public-version of a SOC 2 report) available to current or potential customers upon execution of a non-disclosure agreement.
