Avivatech Achieves Broader SOC 2 Type 2 Certification

Company is now certified for Security, Availability, and Confidentiality; the XpressControl™ solution is now SOC 2 Type 1 certified

ALPHARETTA, Ga., July 23, 2024 – Avivatech LLC, an innovative software business specializing in cash and check automation solutions for branch banking and retail payment environments, announced today the successful expansion of its System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Type 2 certification to include the Availability and Confidentiality criteria, in addition to the Security criteria. This achievement demonstrates the company’s ongoing commitment to adhering to the rigorous security standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). Avivatech was first granted SOC 2 Type 1 certification for security in November 2022. The SOC 2 Type 1 certification confirmed the existence of appropriate internal controls that met the AICPA Trust Services Criteria for security at a given point in time. The company then pursued the SOC 2 Type 2 certification, which involves a more rigorous and ongoing audit that tests those processes for at least six months. In May 2023, the company earned SOC 2 Type 2 certification for the Security criteria in the SOC 2 framework. The most recent audit renewed the company’s SOC 2 Type 2 certification for Security and evaluated Avivatech’s internal controls, policies, and procedures against two additional Trust Service Criteria: Availability and Confidentiality. The resulting report attests that Avivatech has the systems and protocols across several customer-facing applications and internal infrastructure to prevent unauthorized access, use, or modification of confidential information; protect confidential information; and ensure availability of operations and solutions for use. The attestation covers several of Avivatech’s transaction-handling and dashboard applications, including:

• The autoMICR™ solution
• The CashWare® solution
• The XpressCash™ solution
• The XpressScan™ solution
• The QDS Capture solution
• The Vault by Avivatech™ solution
• The Clear by Avivatech™ solution

In addition, Avivatech has achieved SOC 2 Type 1 certification for the XpressControl transaction management application. By maintaining and expanding its SOC 2 Type 2 certification, and obtaining SOC 2 Type 1 certification for XpressControl, Avivatech stands out as a trusted provider of cash and check solutions. “We want to assure our banking and retail customers that our applications and services meet the most comprehensive certification within the System and Organization Controls (SOC) protocol,” says Jack Malinowski, chief technology officer at Avivatech. “Successfully completing this certification process is evidence that we have robust safeguards and controls in place.” “Getting these certifications is just one of the ways we deliver on our promise of efficient transactions and total control,” says Jeff Hempker, president, Avivatech. “We’ve built a security and data processing infrastructure that’s been thoroughly tested so that our customers can trust our software solutions and internal systems and protocols.” As organizations face ongoing cybersecurity risks, they need assurances that their systems are secure and their data is protected. While Avivatech continues to focus on offering best-in-class cash and check automation solutions, its expanded investment in SOC 2 certification makes the company a validated secure choice for retailers and financial institutions.
