What Is a SOC 2 Certification and Why Does It Matter?

In a world where technological exploitation is prevalent, ensuring the security of systems that use large language models (LLMs) is crucial, and obtaining SOC 2 Type 2 certification serves as a vital benchmark in this regard. This certification, part of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) SOC framework, evaluates a service provider's security practices over time, specifically focusing on security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. deepset, a provider of an AI platform for enterprise teams, emphasizes its commitment to user security by maintaining this certification and continually improving its measures against evolving threats. Choosing a SOC 2-certified partner, like deepset, assures data protection, reliability, and regulatory compliance, thus mitigating risks such as data breaches and unauthorized access. In contrast, using non-certified services increases vulnerability to security lapses and regulatory scrutiny. Maintaining SOC 2 Type 2 certification is an ongoing process, reflecting a company's dedication to security and trust, as further explored in deepset's on-demand webinar about securing LLMs and detecting prompt injections.
