RunPod Achieves SOC 2 Type I Certification: A Milestone in AI Security

SOC 2 Type I is an information security framework developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) that evaluates an organization's controls related to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy at a specific point in time. RunPod has successfully achieved SOC 2 Type I certification with a clean audit opinion, indicating no exceptions were found, complementing their existing SOC 2 Type II certification for their data centers. This accomplishment, which required significant effort from key individuals across the organization, underscores RunPod's commitment to high security and compliance standards. Customers can request a copy of the SOC 2 report through Drata, subject to a signed NDA. Looking ahead, RunPod plans to undertake a SOC 2 Type II audit, beginning March 1, which involves a six-month evaluation to ensure continuous adherence to controls, while also pursuing HIPAA and GDPR compliance to better support customers in regulated industries.
