Independent Audit Verifies Notarize’s Internal Controls and Processes

Boston, MA – KirkpatrickPrice announced today that Notarize, the first online legal notary platform, has received their SOC 2 Type I attestation report. The completion of this engagement provides evidence that Notarize has a strong commitment to deliver high quality services to its clients by demonstrating they have the necessary internal controls and processes in place.

SOC 2 engagements are based on the AICPA’s Trust Services Principles. SOC 2 service auditor reports focus on a Service Organization’s non-financial reporting controls as they relate to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy of a system. KirkpatrickPrice’s service auditor report verifies the suitability of the design and operating effectiveness of Notarize’s controls to meet the criteria for these principles.

“We believe life’s most important transactions require the most secure platform. That is why we are relentlessly focused on protecting our customer’s data,” said Russ Morton, Director of Product at Notarize. “We’re pleased to announce that we’ve completed our SOC 2 audit and have received our Type I attestation report from KirkpatrickPrice. This credential provides clear evidence that Notarize has a strong commitment to deliver high quality services for our customers and the most secure solution in the industry.”

“The SOC 2 audit is based on the Trust Services Principles and Criteria. Notarize has selected the security, availability, and confidentiality principles for the basis of their audit,” said Joseph Kirkpatrick, Managing Partner with KirkpatrickPrice. “Notarize delivers trust based services to their clients, and by communicating the results of this audit, their clients can be assured of their reliance on Notarize’s controls.”
