TekCollect Undergoes SSAE16 SOC 1 - Type II Audit

Columbus, Ohio, March 19, 2015 (Newswire.com) - The SSAE16 SOC 1 - Type II Audit is the authoritative guideline to ensure service organizations demonstrate maximum controls and safeguards and compliance when processing customer data and financials. It is an important means for businesses to show customers and affiliates that their control practices have been rigorously tested and validated.

TekCollect has chosen to submit to an SSAE16 SOC 1 - Type II Audit because of their commitment to customer protection and privacy. The process takes six months of extensive review, monitoring a company’s accounting systems, organizational structure, risk management, IT security and controls, change management, transaction processing and more, by an independent service auditor. The external auditing firm chosen by TekCollect is Skoda Minotti Risk Advisory Services.

Our SSAE16 SOC 1 - Type II Audit ensures our customers that we have the same industry standards in security as a large financial institution like Chase Bank, and we welcome the audit as an ongoing means to reassure our clientele.
