HONG KONG, Mar 5, 2025 -- PhotonPay, a leading global financial infrastructure, today announced the successful completion of its System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Type I audit. This significant achievement underscores PhotonPay's unwavering commitment to robust data security, strict internal controls, and the protection of user privacy across its comprehensive suite of global payment solutions.
Conducted by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), the SOC 2 Type I audit affirms that PhotonPay's system and processes are appropriately designed to meet the stringent criteria for security, availability and confidentiality. This certification provides PhotonPay's clients and partners with assurance that their sensitive information is managed with great care and in line with industry best practices.
The attainment of SOC 2 Type I compliance is the latest milestone in PhotonPay's mission to build a world-class security and compliance framework. This achievement complements our robust security matrix, which already includes ISO 27001 and PCI DSS Level 1 certifications. To translate these rigorous global standards into actionable protection, PhotonPay secures data at rest and in transit using high-grade encryption, while our advanced AI-driven risk engine proactively prevents fraud with millisecond-level precision at every payment stage.
"Achieving SOC 2 Type I compliance is a pivotal step forward for PhotonPay and a testament to our relentless dedication to security and trust," said JP, Group Chief Compliance Officer at PhotonPay. "Safeguarding our clients' data is not merely a security compliance requirement but a fundamental pillar of our mission. This rigorous assessment validates that our controls and processes are meticulously designed to protect sensitive information, enabling businesses to scale and succeed without borders securely."
Building on this achievement, PhotonPay plans to commence its SOC 2 Type II audit, which will evaluate the operating effectiveness of these controls over an extended period, further solidifying its long-term security strategy.
