Paired with the achievement of a new SOC 3 Type II certification, the expanded audit scope, now including additional Trust Service Criteria such as Confidentiality, demonstrates Nexo’s dedication to the safeguarding of sensitive user data.
On July 25, 2024, Nexo announced these significant milestones with an emphasis on data protection, which remains at the heart of the firm’s mission to ensure user trust and security.
Conducted by A-LIGN, a reputable independent auditor with over two decades of expertise in security compliance, the assessments confirmed Nexo’s adherence to Trust Service Criteria for Security and Confidentiality without exception.
