The SOC 2 Type II report confirms VGS's commitment to upholding rigorous standards for our customers.

VGS is pleased to announce that we successfully completed the SOC 2 Type II assessment after undergoing a comprehensive annual review that confirmed our fulfillment of all system requirements based on the trust services criteria outlined by the AICPA. This annual assessment is part of VGS's unwavering commitment to upholding elevated security standards.

VGS's SOC 2 Type II report resulted from a thorough examination of our internal controls and systems pertaining to the five Trust Services Criteria (TSC) outlined by the AICPA:

  • Security
  • Availability
  • processing integrity
  • Confidentiality
  • Privacy.2

A SOC 2 examination is a report on controls at a service organization relevant to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, or privacy. SOC 2 reports are intended to meet the needs of a broad range of users who need detailed information and assurance about the controls at a service organization relevant to the security, availability, and processing integrity of the systems the service organization uses to process users' data and the confidentiality and privacy of the information processed by these systems.1

“Successfully completing the SOC 2 Type II assessment provides transparency around VGS' practices, providing trust and assurance that VGS is upholding rigorous security standards through established company-wide controls that safeguard our customers' sensitive data. We live in a world with constant threats to data privacy and security. Our SOC assessment proves that VGS is well-equipped to handle today's and tomorrow's threats and provide our customers peace of mind.”
