At Nevis, security is not an add-on or a checkbox exercise. As a provider of enterprise-grade Customer Identity and Access Management (CIAM), security, availability, and operational discipline are fundamental to our role in our customers’ digital ecosystems.
We are proud to announce that Nevis has successfully achieved SOC 2 Type II certification.
This certification is not a marketing badge. It is an independent, auditor-verified confirmation that our controls for security and operations are not only well designed, but consistently executed over time.
Why SOC 2 Type II Matters – Especially for CIAM
Customer Identity platforms sit at one of the most critical control points in modern architectures. CIAM systems manage:
- Millions of customer and partner identities
- Authentication and access to business-critical applications and APIs
- Highly sensitive personal and behavioral data
- Peak login volumes under strict availability requirements
At the same time, identity systems are among the most audited, regulated, and attacked components of today’s digital landscape.
For this reason, CIAM vendors are subject to particularly high expectations from:
- CISOs and IAM leaders
- Risk and compliance teams
- Procurement and vendor risk management
- Regulators in highly regulated industries
SOC 2 Type II directly addresses these expectations.
What SOC 2 Type II Actually Verifies
SOC 2 is defined by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) and evaluates a service organization against the Trust Services Criteria, including security and availability.
While a SOC 2 Type I report assesses whether controls are designed appropriately at a specific point in time, Type II goes significantly further:
- Controls are tested over an extended period (typically 6–12 months)
- Auditors verify that security and operational processes are consistently followed
- Evidence is required that controls are embedded in daily operations
In short: SOC 2 Type II proves operational maturity, not just good intentions.
Why Nevis Invested in SOC 2 Type II
For Nevis, achieving SOC 2 Type II was a deliberate strategic decision.
As a CIAM provider for enterprise and regulated environments, we want to ensure that our customers can rely on Nevis not only functionally, but operationally and procedurally. SOC 2 Type II validates that:
- Our security controls are robust and consistently enforced
- Our systems are operated with proven availability and resilience
- Our internal processes meet recognized industry standards
- Our customers can trust Nevis as a long-term, audit-ready partner
This aligns directly with our mission to provide secure, reliable identity infrastructure at scale.
What This Means for Nevis Customers
Choosing a SOC 2 Type II certified CIAM provider delivers tangible benefits:
Reduced Risk
An independent auditor has verified that Nevis protects customer identity data against unauthorized access and operational failures.
Operational Reliability
Availability controls are part of the assessment, helping ensure stable authentication and access even under high load.
Faster Vendor Risk Assessments
SOC 2 Type II significantly simplifies security reviews, procurement processes, and third-party risk assessments.
Stronger Compliance Posture
While SOC 2 does not replace regulatory requirements, it provides a strong foundation for compliance with frameworks such as GDPR and industry-specific regulations.
Commitment Beyond Certification
Trust is built through continuous discipline, not one-time achievements. SOC 2 Type II reflects our ongoing commitment to transparency, security, and operational excellence across our CIAM platform.
The SOC 2 Type II report can be provided upon request once a valid NDA is signed.
