Sun Print Solutions has achieved SOC 2 Type II certification, marking a significant advancement in data security and compliance for its print and direct mail services, particularly for healthcare clients handling protected health information. This certification validates the company's ability to manage sensitive data with the highest level of integrity, addressing legal requirements and industry standards for safeguarding client information.
The SOC 2 framework, developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), evaluates how effectively a company protects customer data. Achieving Type II certification involved a comprehensive audit of Sun Print Solutions' systems, procedures, and performance over time, ensuring that controls operate effectively across five trust principles: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.
RJ Deneau, Business Development Manager at Sun Print Solutions, stated that this achievement reinforces the company's commitment to secure and compliant print solutions, especially for clients in highly regulated industries like healthcare. The multi-phase certification process required months of preparation, implementation, and independent auditing by a third-party assessor, leading to refinements that strengthened the company's data protection measures.
This certification is crucial as healthcare organizations increasingly rely on personalized communication, such as appointment reminders and wellness campaigns, which involve handling sensitive data. The SOC 2 Type II certification ensures that clients can trust both the output and the process, reducing risk exposure as organizations scale their personalization efforts using variable data printing.
Sun Print Solutions also maintains its union certification and other compliance benchmarks, reinforcing its role as a reliable partner in regulated sectors. The certification is part of the company's broader investment in data security and operational excellence, positioning it to meet evolving regulations and client expectations.
