In-Depth Audit Confirms the Operational Effectiveness of
Softscape's Internal Controls
Wayland, Mass. - March 4, 2008 - Softscape, the global leader in
integrated people management software, today announced that it has
successfully completed the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 70 (SAS
70), Service Organizations, Type I and II audits without any noted
exceptions. As the newest component in Softscape's extensive customer
support services, the SAS 70 certification confirms for customers that
Softscape utilizes dependable and secure operational controls for its
customer data, customer environment, and data center.
SAS 70 is an internationally recognized auditing standard developed by
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A SAS 70 audit
ensures a service organization has been through an in-depth audit of
their control activities. In cases where data is sensitive or regulated,
such as with Sarbanes-Oxley, it is important for hosting organizations
like Softscape to have detailed and well documented controls in place to
ensure the safety and privacy of the data being stored and transmitted.
A SAS 70 examination signifies that a service organization has had its
control objectives and activities examined by an independent auditing
firm.
"Softscape's number one priority is our customers. We pursued the SAS 70
certification as a demonstrable commitment to excellence in customer
service and operating effectiveness," said Dave Watkins, chief executive
officer, Softscape. "Our certification is evidence of the rigorous
processes, procedures, and internal controls surrounding our hosted and
SaaS solutions."
