Wolf & Company Issues Renewal Report on Controls over
Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality and Privacy


Lexington, MA, January 7, 2016
– Daymark Solutions, a leading provider of information technology solutions, announced that it has undergone a Service Organization Control 2 SM (SOC) 2 examination. The examination and final report concluded that that the management at Daymark maintained effective controls over the availability, processing integrity, confidentiality and privacy for all of its Managed Services offerings. The SOC 2 examination was performed by Wolf & Company, P.C. of Boston, MA.

A SOC 2 SM report is designed to meet the needs of existing or potential customers who need assurance about the effectiveness of controls at a service organization that are relevant to the security, availability, or processing integrity of the system used by the service organization to process customer’s information or the confidentiality or privacy of that information. This validation covers all of Daymark Managed Services including Data Protection Services (DPS), StorageStream Reporting as a Service (RaaS), Backup as a Service (BaaS), Storage as a Service (SaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).

"We are pleased that our SOC 2SM report has shown that we have the appropriate controls in place to mitigate risks related to security and availability,” said Bruce Hall, Director of Managed Services at Daymark. “Daymark prides itself on our long history of implementing best of breed solutions for our customers.  We have continued this heritage with all aspects of our Managed and Cloud Services and take security and availability very seriously.  Our renewal of our SOC 2 validation, that was completed for the second consecutive year without a single finding, demonstrates our commitment to the privacy and protection of our customers’ data.”

The following principles and related criteria have been developed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) and the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA) for use by practitioners in the performance of trust services engagements:

  • Security – The system is protected against unauthorized access (both physical and logical)
  • Availability – The systems is available for operation and use as committed or agreed
  • Processing Integrity – System processing is complete, accurate, timely and authorized
  • Confidentiality – Information designated as confidential is protected as committed or agreed
  • Privacy – Personal information is collected, used, retained, disclosed and destroyed in conformity with the commitments in the entity’s privacy notice and with criteria set forth in generally accepted privacy principles issued by the AICPA and CICA.
