When you share data with us, you deserve clear proof it stays safe. After a rigorous audit, HeroCoders earned SOC 2 Type II Certification with an unqualified opinion and zero exceptions. Independent experts examined every detail of how we store, process, and protect your information, confirming it remains secure, private, and reliable. This certification gives you verified assurance that our apps continuously meet globally recognized standards for security, availability, confidentiality, processing integrity, and privacy.

What is SOC-2 Anyway?

SOC 2 is a security framework developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) to define how organizations should protect customer data from unauthorized access, security incidents, and other vulnerabilities. Defining five Trust Services Criteria (Security, Availability, Processing integrity, Confidentiality and Privacy), SOC 2 is considered the standard for SaaS companies wanting to demonstrated their commitment to data security.

From Type I to Type II: What Changed for Us

Last September we earned SOC 2 Type I, which validated our controls at a single point in time. Type II goes several steps further, measuring how those controls perform over an extended period.

To earn it we underwent months of continuous monitoring, documentation reviews, penetration testing, and policy audits - all conducted by Prescient Security. The result proves our safeguards don’t just look good on paper; they work in real life, every day.

What It Means for You

SOC2 compliance is a symbol of our commitment to your security, providing:

  • Enhanced Trust – We know that our apps are among the many you use to do your day to day work; that you may work in a highly regulated industry; that you are responsible for the data of your employees and customers.  Knowing that HeroCoders has achieved SOC2 certification means you can rest assured that your data protected against unauthorized breaches. We meet or exceed the industry security standards and best practices.

  • Expedited Procurement – Lengthy security questionnaires, negotiations over redlining and back-and-forth conversations about data safety protocols are time-consuming and cumbersome for both parties. SOC-2 certification brings assurance and visibility to our procedures. When you’re ready to purchase one of our apps, you can simply navigate to the HeroCoders Trust Center and review our security practices for yourself.

  • Reduce Risk – HeroCoders has always been focused on data security, but that doesn’t mean we didn’t learn some things during the SOC2 certification process.  We’ve defined and refined our processes to ensure continuous vigilance.  This will allow us to identify and mitigate potential risks faster – thereby improving the safety of your work environment as well.

Whether you're working in highly regulated industries or handling sensitive client information, you can trust HeroCoders has the necessary safeguards in place.

The audit report, and penetration test reports are available upon request via our Trust Center.

Thank you for being on this journey with us. We look forward to continuing to provide you enterprise-ready tools you can rely on with the trust and security you expect.
