While SOC 2 Type 1 assesses the design of security controls at a specific point in time, SOC 2 Type 2 evaluates how well those controls operate over an extended period. NT-ware went above and beyond by opting for a full-year audit period.
When it comes to cloud security, talk is cheap. Proof is powerful.
You want to know that your data and sensitive information are not only secure today, but that it will continue to be protected tomorrow, next month, and years down the road. That’s where independent proof makes all the difference.
NT-ware, the company behind uniFLOW Online (a secure, cloud-based print and scan management platform) has earned SOC 2 Type 2 Certification, which validates the highest standards of security and reliability. For you, that means confidence that your information is handled with care, you're operating effectively, your compliance needs are supported, and your cloud operations can grow without unnecessary risk.
What is SOC 2 Type 2?
Information security/print security is essential. SOC 2 is a well-known security framework developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). It’s designed to assess how service providers manage customer data, especially in cloud-based environments.
While SOC 2 Type 1 assesses the design of security controls at a specific point in time, SOC 2 Type 2 evaluates how well those controls operate over an extended period. NT-ware went above and beyond by opting for a full-year audit period to prove long-term reliability.
What is NT-ware’s Approach?
NT-ware didn’t settle for the minimum. Instead of focusing only on the required “Security” criteria, the company achieved compliance with all five Trust Service Criteria:
- Security – Protection against unauthorized access
- Availability – System uptime and performance you can count on
- Processing Integrity – Accurate and reliable data processing
- Confidentiality – Protection of sensitive business data
- Privacy – Responsible handling of personal information
This broad scope demonstrates NT-ware’s commitment to delivering not just a secure product, but a trustworthy and resilient service.
What Does it Mean for You?
1. Peace of Mind.
Your business data is protected by controls that have been tested over time, not just reviewed once. That means fewer surprises and more confidence.
2. Stronger Compliance (Soc 2 Compliance).
If your organization is subject to regulatory requirements, using a SOC 2 Type 2-certified provider like NT-ware supports your own compliance efforts.
3. Lower Risk of Downtime and Data Breaches.
Proactive monitoring, secure infrastructure, and proven processes help reduce the risk of costly disruptions or data loss.
4. Confidence to Grow in the Cloud.
As you expand your digital infrastructure, you need partners you can trust. SOC 2 Type 2 certification confirms that uniFLOW Online is designed for secure and scalable operations.
