pMD®️ Remains Committed to Top-Tier Healthcare Data Security By Passing SOC 2® Security Audit

SAN FRANCISCO – In line with its commitment to ensuring the highest standards of security and data protection, pMD®, a leading healthcare technology provider, is pleased to announce that it has successfully passed the Service Organization Control (SOC) 2® Type II evaluation. According to a report by Critical Insight, a cybersecurity firm, over 40 million Americans were impacted by medical data breaches in the first part of 2023. This statistic underscores the significance of prioritizing data privacy and security, which is why pMD annually undertakes SOC 2® audits each year.

The SOC 2® Type II evaluation was conducted by an independent third-party evaluator, assessing pMD's adherence to industry best practices and standards in areas such as security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.

Highlights from the evaluation include:

  • Robust password parameters ensuring minimized risk of unauthorized access.
  • Strict policies on workstation use and security, tailored to the type and location of the device.
  • Physical access controls in place at pMD's office locations, with key card access required at all times.
  • Annual security access reviews encompassing pMD’s products, firewalls, production servers, and physical access points.

The positive outcome of this evaluation not only reinforces pMD's commitment to security but also serves as a testament to the company's proactive approach to risk management and its ongoing efforts to enhance its security posture across all pMD® solutions and services.

The audits were completed by Linford & Company LLP, a highly regarded certified public accounting and information security firm. While the set of procedures and controls tested by a SOC 2 Type I and a SOC 2 Type II assessments are the same, a Type I report is an attestation only at a specific point in time, whereas a Type II covers a period of time. For pMD®, the Type II report describes the company's control environment over the course of 12 continuous months.
