Ben Osbrach, CISSP, CISA, QSA, CICP, CCSFP, National Risk Advisory Leader of Marcum’s risk advisory group says, “We were excited to work with AQuity from the very start. They are a recognized industry leader in outsourced clinical documentation delivering high quality services and their business adds to our growing SOC reporting practice.”

SOC 2^® engagements are performed in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ (AICPA) AT-C 205, Reporting on Controls at a Service Organization and based on the trust service principles outlined in the AICPA Guide, Reporting on Controls at a Service Organization Relevant to Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, or Privacy. The SOC 2^® Type I report is performed by an independent auditing firm and is intended to provide an understanding of the service organization’s suitability of the design of its internal controls. Successful completion of this voluntary engagement illustrates AQuity’s ongoing commitment to create and maintain a secure operating environment for their clients’ confidential data.

Marcum’s testing of AQuity’s controls included examination of their policies and procedures regarding network connectivity, firewall configurations, systems development life cycle, computer operations, logical access, data transmission, backup and disaster recovery, and other critical operational areas of their business. Upon completion of the audit, they received a Service Auditor’s Report with an unqualified opinion demonstrating that their policies, procedures, and infrastructure meet or exceed the stringent SOC 2^® criteria.

“The successful completion of our SOC 2^® Type I examination audit provides AQuity’s clients with the assurance the controls and safeguards we employ to protect and secure their data are in line with industry standards and best practices,” said Marty Serro, CIO/CSO. “This audit covered all our operating divisions in the U.S., India, Canada and Australia.”
