Intradyn Achieves SOC 2 Type II Compliance: Strengthening Security for Digital Communications Archiving
TL;DR
Intradyn has achieved SOC 2 Type II compliance following an independent 3-month audit by Advantage Partners, a licensed CPA firm. This certification validates that our security controls protecting your archived communications operate effectively over time—not just on paper. For organizations in government, healthcare, finance, and education, this achievement streamlines vendor approval, supports compliance audits, and provides independent verification of enterprise-grade security controls.
A Milestone That Reflects Our Values
“Achieving SOC 2 Type II compliance represents more than a certification—it’s validation of the security-first culture we’ve built at Intradyn. Our customers in government, healthcare, finance, and education trust us with their most sensitive communications. That trust demands not just strong security practices, but independent verification that those practices work consistently. This achievement demonstrates our unwavering commitment to protecting the data our customers depend on every single day.”
— Adnan Olia, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Information Security Officer, Intradyn
We’re proud to announce that Intradyn has achieved SOC 2 Type II compliance, demonstrating our unwavering commitment to protecting the communications data our customers entrust to us. Following an independent audit conducted by Advantage Partners, a licensed CPA firm, covering the period from September 1, 2025 through December 1, 2025, we’ve earned an unqualified opinion. This is the highest level of assurance, verifying that our security controls are properly designed and operate effectively over time.
This provides the independent validation that organizations in government, healthcare, finance, and education need when selecting a digital communications archiving partner. For customers who must comply with FINRA, SEC, HIPAA, FERPA, FOIA, and other regulations, this milestone reinforces that their data is secured by independently validated, enterprise-grade controls.
Whether you’re archiving emails to meet SEC 17a-4 requirements, capturing text messages for FINRA compliance, or preserving social media content for public records requests, you can trust that the platform protecting your data has been rigorously examined and verified by a licensed CPA firm.
Why SOC 2 Type II Matters for Communications Archiving
In digital communications archiving, security is everything. The data flowing through your organization’s emails, text messages, iMessages, WhatsApp conversations, and social media channels contains business information, personally identifiable information (PII), protected health information (PHI), and legally discoverable content. A breach or data loss in an archiving system could expose years of communications, putting your organization at significant legal, financial, and reputational risk.
For organizations in regulated industries, the stakes are even higher. When you’re subject to oversight from the SEC, FINRA, HIPAA, FERPA, or state-level Sunshine Laws, your archiving vendor becomes an extension of your compliance program. This is why enterprise procurement and compliance teams increasingly require SOC 2 reports before approving vendors.
How SOC 2 Type II Supports Your Compliance
Regulatory Alignment
Our SOC 2 controls align with and support compliance requirements under HIPAA for healthcare organizations, FINRA and SEC regulations for financial services firms, FERPA for educational institutions, and FOIA requirements for government agencies. When you use a SOC 2-compliant archiving vendor, it strengthens your own compliance posture and demonstrates due diligence in vendor selection.
Vendor Risk Management
Your compliance and legal teams need assurance that third-party vendors maintain appropriate security controls. SOC 2 Type II provides that assurance through independent verification, helping you satisfy internal risk management requirements and external auditor inquiries about your technology stack.
Data Integrity for eDiscovery
In legal proceedings, the chain of custody and integrity of archived communications are paramount. Our SOC 2 controls validate that we maintain proper oversight over data handling, access controls, and system changes—critical factors when producing records for litigation or investigations.
Business Continuity
Communications archives must remain available when you need them most. Our SOC 2 audit evaluated controls related to system availability, disaster recovery, and business continuity, ensuring your archived data remains accessible even during unexpected events.

Understanding SOC 2 Type II: More Than a Snapshot in Time
Many organizations are familiar with security assessments, but SOC 2 Type II stands apart as the gold standard for service providers. Here’s what makes it different—and why it matters for your archiving solution.
Type I vs. Type II
A SOC 2 Type I report examines whether security controls are designed appropriately at a single point in time. It’s essentially a snapshot. SOC 2 Type II, however, evaluates whether those controls operate effectively over an extended period—typically 3 to 12 months. This extended observation period provides far greater assurance that security controls work consistently, not just during an audit preparation period.
Trust Service Criteria
Our SOC 2 Type II audit evaluated the Security trust service criterion, which encompasses the controls protecting against unauthorized access, including:
- Network security
- Access management
- System monitoring
- Incident response procedures
This criterion is foundational for any organization handling data and is particularly critical for communications archiving solutions that process, store, and protect years of organizational communications containing business intelligence, PII, PHI, and legally discoverable content.
The Audit Process
Achieving SOC 2 Type II compliance required rigorous examination by Advantage Partners, an independent CPA firm:
- Comprehensive documentation of our security policies, procedures, and control activities
- Testing of controls throughout the audit period to verify consistent operation
- Review of system configurations, access logs, change management procedures, and security monitoring
- Evidence collection demonstrating control effectiveness over time
The result is an unqualified opinion—the highest level of assurance a SOC 2 report can provide—confirming that our controls are suitably designed and operating effectively throughout the entire observation period.
Our Comprehensive Security Approach
SOC 2 Type II compliance validates the security program we’ve built throughout our platform and operations. Here’s how we protect your archived communications:
Infrastructure Security
Our archiving platform is built on Amazon Web Services (AWS), one of the world’s most secure and reliable cloud infrastructures. We leverage AWS’s security certifications and controls as a foundation, then layer our own application-level security on top.
Encryption Everywhere
All archived data is protected with AES-256 encryption—the same military-grade standard used by governments and financial institutions. Data is encrypted both at rest (while stored) and in transit (while moving between systems).
Access Controls and Authentication
We implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) and role-based access controls (RBAC) to ensure only authorized users can access archived data. Our granular permission system lets you control precisely what each user can see and do. Recent integration with Okta further strengthens identity and access management capabilities.
Audit Trails and Compliance Monitoring
Every action taken within our platform—searches, exports, deletions, configuration changes—is logged in immutable audit trails. This creates a complete chain of custody for your archived data and helps you demonstrate compliance during regulatory examinations or legal proceedings.
Continuous Security Monitoring
Our security operations team monitors systems 24/7 for anomalies, potential security incidents, and performance issues. This proactive approach helps us identify and respond to potential threats before they impact your data.
Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity
Your archived communications must remain accessible even during unexpected events. We maintain comprehensive backup systems, redundant infrastructure, and tested recovery procedures to ensure business continuity and minimize the risk of data loss.
SOC 2 Type II compliance validates that these security measures aren’t just marketing claims—they’re independently verified controls that operate effectively, day after day, protecting your organization’s most sensitive communications.
What This Means for Your Organization
Our SOC 2 Type II achievement translates directly into tangible benefits for organizations that trust Intradyn with their communications archiving:
Accelerated Procurement and Vendor Approval: If you’re evaluating archiving solutions, your IT security and procurement teams likely require SOC 2 reports before approving new vendors. With our Type II report in hand, you can significantly reduce the time spent on security questionnaires, vendor risk assessments, and back-and-forth documentation requests. We can provide the report directly to your security team, streamlining your evaluation process.
Confidence in Your Compliance Program: Whether you’re a government agency responding to FOIA requests, a financial advisor meeting FINRA requirements, a healthcare organization protecting PHI, or an educational institution complying with FERPA, you need confidence that your archiving vendor won’t be the weak link in your compliance program. SOC 2 Type II provides independent verification that we maintain the security controls necessary to support your compliance obligations.
Support During Your Own Audits: When your organization undergoes compliance audits—whether for HIPAA, SOX, regulatory examinations, or internal assessments—auditors will scrutinize your vendors. Being able to provide your auditors with our SOC 2 Type II report demonstrates that you’ve performed appropriate due diligence in vendor selection and that your archiving vendor maintains proper security controls. This can significantly simplify your own audit process.
Protection of Sensitive Communications: The emails, text messages, iMessages, WhatsApp conversations, and social media content flowing through your organization represent years of business intelligence, strategy discussions, customer interactions, and sensitive decisions. Many of these communications contain information that, if breached, could harm individuals, damage your reputation, or expose you to legal liability. Our SOC 2 controls provide assurance that this sensitive data is protected by enterprise-grade security measures.
Ongoing Commitment, Not One-Time Achievement: SOC 2 Type II compliance requires annual recertification. This isn’t a one-and-done certification we can rest on—it’s an ongoing commitment to maintaining and improving our security posture year after year. You can trust that we’ll continue investing in security, adapting to emerging threats, and maintaining the high standards our customers deserve.
Built for Regulated Industries, Validated by Independent Audit
Intradyn has always served organizations with demanding compliance requirements—government agencies navigating FOIA and public records laws, financial services firms meeting SEC and FINRA mandates, healthcare organizations protecting patient information under HIPAA, and educational institutions safeguarding student data under FERPA. We understand that for these organizations, compliance isn’t optional, and vendor security isn’t negotiable.
Our platform has been designed from the ground up with compliance in mind. Features like customizable retention policies, legal hold capabilities, powerful search and eDiscovery tools, redaction functionality, granular user permissions, and comprehensive audit trails all exist to help you meet your regulatory obligations. What SOC 2 Type II does is validate that the security infrastructure supporting these compliance features meets independent standards for design and operational effectiveness.
This combination—compliance-focused features backed by verified security controls—positions Intradyn as the archiving partner you can trust when the stakes are high.

Innovation Without Compromising Security
Achieving SOC 2 Type II compliance doesn’t mean we’re standing still. We continue to innovate and expand our platform capabilities while maintaining the security standards our customers require. Recent enhancements include:
- iMessage archiving: We’re the first archiving solution to offer compliant capture and storage of iPhone messages, addressing a critical gap for regulated organizations whose employees use Apple devices for business communications.
- WhatsApp archiving: As business communication increasingly moves to messaging platforms, we’ve expanded our capabilities to securely capture and archive WhatsApp conversations.
- Enhanced Okta integration: Full integration with this leading identity and access management platform provides additional security layers and simplifies user authentication.
- AOS 7 platform updates: Our latest Archiving Operating System release delivers improved user experience, enhanced search capabilities, and streamlined data migration tools—all built on the same secure, SOC 2-compliant infrastructure.
Every new feature and capability we develop goes through the same rigorous security review and testing that enabled us to achieve SOC 2 Type II compliance. Security isn’t a barrier to innovation at Intradyn—it’s a foundational requirement that guides everything we build.
