Sandy Alexander’s Enhanced Security Controls Conform to SSAE 16, SOC 2 Standards

Clifton, NJ – November 16, 2015.  Sandy Alexander, a leader in integrated multi-channel communications solutions headquartered in Clifton, NJ, announced today that an additional privacy and security compliance audit has been successfully completed – SSAE 16, SOC 2. Sandy Alexander completed its SOC 1 audit earlier this year. In implementing solutions to aid in security and privacy safeguards for customers, Sandy Alexander continues to advance opportunities for clients to improve operating efficiencies and reduce costs.

Sandy Alexander President and CEO Michael Graff stated, “Being SOC 2 compliant is highly complementary to Sandy’s ever increasing suite of services and supports our ongoing effort to fulfill our clients’ needs.” Graff added, “We continue to look for new ways to improve physical security and privacy safeguards as many of our customers are in security conscious industries including finance, automotive, healthcare, retail, hospitality and travel.”

Achieving SOC 2 compliance was a company-wide effort and required significant time and resources. As verified by an independent CPA audit, SOC 2 requires a written statement of assertion and a description of an organization’s data handling system. The system includes the services provided, and the supporting processes, policies, procedures, personnel and operational activities that constitute a company’s relevant core activities. Sandy Alexander will continue to advance in achieving the highest security standards in the industry by complying with HIPAA standards by year end.

The Company plans to make the SOC 1 and SOC 2 audit reports available to any clients or potential clients that wish to review the specific controls tested, including the results of testing by the audit firm. Sandy Alexander will maintain its vigilance regarding operating excellence through continuous improvement of its quality management procedures.
