FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Wayland, MA – March 4, 2008 – Softscape, the global leader in integrated people management software, today announced that it has successfully completed the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 70 (SAS 70), Service Organizations, Type I and II audits without any noted exceptions. As the newest component in Softscape’s extensive customer support services, the SAS 70 certification confirms for customers that Softscape utilizes dependable and secure operational controls for its customer data, customer environment, and data center.
SAS 70 is an internationally recognized auditing standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A SAS 70 audit ensures a service organization has been through an in-depth audit of their control activities. In cases where data is sensitive or regulated, such as with Sarbanes-Oxley, it is important for hosting organizations like Softscape to have detailed and well documented controls in place to ensure the safety and privacy of the data being stored and transmitted. A SAS 70 examination signifies that a service organization has had its control objectives and activities examined by an independent auditing firm.
“Softscape’s number one priority is our customers. We pursued the SAS 70 certification as a demonstrable commitment to excellence in customer service and operating effectiveness,” said Dave Watkins, chief executive officer, Softscape. “Our certification is evidence of the rigorous processes, procedures, and internal controls surrounding our hosted and SaaS solutions.”
