Babel Street Announces Successful Completion of SOC 2® Type 2 Assessment of Information Security Practices for Babel Street Insights

Independent audit confirms the company’s commitment to stringent privacy and data protection standards

Babel Street, a leader in advanced AI, data, and analytics solutions for threat and identity intelligence, today announced the successful completion of the Service Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Type 2 assessment for Babel Street Insights, confirming that the company’s information security practices, policies, procedures, and operations meet rigorous standards.

Designed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), the SOC 2 Type 2 auditing procedure examines a company’s commitment to data privacy and information security standards through five key criteria: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.

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.

“Leading organizations and government agencies around the globe depend on Babel Street Insights to help detect, assess, and mitigate identity, threat, and operations risks,” said Michael Southworth, CEO of Babel Street. “The successful completion of the SOC 2 assessment along with our ISO 27001 certification demonstrates our commitment to responsible use of information by maintaining the highest standards of confidentiality, integrity, and accountability.”

As an integral part of the Babel Street Ecosystem, Babel Street Insights is a multilingual, geo-enabled analytics platform for threat intelligence, identity resolution, and risk mitigation. It opens a world of access to best-in-class enriched data and visualizations that help close the Risk-Confidence Gap.

SOC 2 is a United States-based standard that focuses on cloud service provider products (e.g., Babel Street Insights). The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) developed SOC 2 to establish trust between service providers and their customers. Compliance results are detailed in an audit report issued by a security and compliance partner. These audit reports are commonly requested by customers to complete their vendor due diligence and to maintain their compliance requirements.
