Torchlight’s digital platform is among the first employee-caregiver solutions to pass rigorous trust services criteria with zero exceptions
Torchlight announced it has successfully completed American Institute of CPAs (AICPA’s) Service Organization Control (SOC) 2 Type II Audit, attesting to the highest levels of information security underpinning its employee-caregiver support solutions. While the SOC 2 Type I Audit completed one year prior affirmed Torchlight’s controls at that point in time, the Type II attestation required the company to maintain and demonstrate continuous and consistent controls over an extended period of time.

“We are extremely gratified to receive SOC 2 Type II certification and view this as a monumental achievement by our entire Torchlight team. We are proud to set the industry standard with the highest level of commitment to protecting our customers’ and partners’ sensitive data,” said Adam Goldberg, Torchlight’s CEO. “In light of the rise in enterprise data breaches in recent years, and especially now during such vulnerable times, it is no longer an option to operate in the CareTech space without a documented track record of controls to ensure trust and transparency when it comes to security.”
Torchlight engaged AARC-360 to conduct the audit.
