Markham, ON., March 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — RiskAware Inc., today announced that it has successfully completed a SOC 2 Type 1 examination, providing independent third-party validation of the design of controls supporting the security and availability of its cybersecurity risk intelligence platform.

SOC 2 examinations are developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and are widely requested by enterprise customers as part of vendor risk management and security due diligence processes. The examination evaluates the design of controls relevant to the Trust Services Criteria, including security and system availability.

“For organizations managing complex cyber risk across vendors, infrastructure, and digital assets, trust in the underlying platform is critical,” said Michael Castro, CEO at RiskAware Inc. “Completing our SOC 2 Type 1 examination reflects our commitment to building a platform that is secure, reliable, and designed to meet the expectations of modern enterprise security teams.”

The SOC 2 Type 1 examination validates that RiskAware’s control framework is appropriately designed to protect customer data and support reliable platform operations. Controls evaluated during the examination include areas such as access management, monitoring, operational governance, and incident response procedures.

Supporting enterprise security and cyber risk visibility

Organizations rely on RiskAware to identify external attack surfaces, monitor cybersecurity exposure, and prioritize remediation across their digital footprint. As enterprises increasingly rely on third-party platforms to support security operations, SOC reporting provides a standardized framework for evaluating how providers manage and safeguard critical systems and data.

“Security leaders expect transparency and evidence when evaluating technology partners,” said Michael Castro at RiskAware Inc. “SOC 2 Type 1 translates how our security and operational controls are designed into a format that risk teams and auditors can independently review and rely on.”

Next step: SOC 2 Type 2

Following this milestone, RiskAware plans to pursue SOC 2 Type 2, which evaluates the operating effectiveness of controls over time, providing customers with additional assurance that security processes consistently function as designed.

The SOC 2 report is available to customers and qualified partners under NDA upon request.
