Security compliance is not a moment in time; it is a sustained commitment. Today, we are proud to announce that Skyhigh Security’s Security Service Edge (SSE) Cloud Platform has completed its SOC 2 Type II assessment, validating that the complete Skyhigh SSE Portfolio meets the AICPA’s rigorous standards for securely managing customer data over an extended period.

This latest assessment builds on prior SOC 2 evaluations of the Skyhigh CASB and Web portfolios, and marks the first time the full, integrated Skyhigh SSE Cloud Platform, including all converged components, has been assessed as a unified platform.

“Skyhigh Security is committed to establishing rigorous security compliance as the standard baseline for our cloud platform. Achieving SOC 2 Type II for the complete SSE Cloud Platform is a comprehensive process that validates our platform security controls over an extended period. Unlike point-in-time checks, this assessment reinforces our commitment to continuous data protection and the trust our customers place in us every day.”

Steve Tait, CTO at Skyhigh Security”

What is SOC 2 Type II?

Developed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA), SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is an auditing framework that establishes standards for service providers to securely manage customer data. A SOC 2 examination is a report on controls at a service organization relevant to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.

The distinction between Type I and Type II is significant:

  • SOC 2 Type I — Evaluates whether controls are designed appropriately at a single point in time
  • SOC 2 Type II — Evaluates whether controls are operating effectively over an extended observation period (typically 6–12 months)

A Type II report provides independent, audited assurance; confirmed by an opinion from an independent CPA firm; that appropriate controls are not only in place but have been consistently operating as designed. This is the gold standard for cloud service provider security attestation.

The Five Trust Services Criteria

The SOC 2 Type II assessment evaluated Skyhigh Security’s controls across all five AICPA Trust Services Criteria (TSC):

  • Security — The system is protected against unauthorized access, both physical and logical
  • Availability — The system is available for operation and use as committed or agreed
  • Processing Integrity — System processing is complete, accurate, and authorized
  • Confidentiality — Information designated as confidential is protected according to policy or agreement
  • Privacy — Personal information is collected, used, retained, disclosed, and disposed of in conformity with the entity’s privacy notice and AICPA Generally Accepted Privacy Principles

What’s New in the 2026 SOC 2 Assessment

The 2026 SOC 2 Type II assessment covers the complete Skyhigh SSE Portfolio as a unified cloud platform for the first time. This includes:

  • スカイハイ セキュア ウェブ ゲートウェイ(SWG)
  • スカイハイ クラウドアクセスセキュリティブローカー(CASB)
  • SKyhigh Private Access(ZTNA)
  • Advanced Data Loss Prevention (DLP)
  • Remote Browser Isolation (RBI)

These components are fully converged into a single, cloud-native enforcement point that protects data and stops threats across all Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications, Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) environments, and Shadow IT. The platform provides a single DLP engine with centralised management and reporting, a unified policy framework across all data exfiltration vectors, and multi-layered security technologies to cover all enterprise use cases globally.

Why SOC 2 Type II Matters for Your Organization

For security and procurement teams evaluating cloud security vendors, a SOC 2 Type II report provides:

  • Verified Operational Effectiveness — Independent evidence that security controls work as intended over time, not just at a snapshot
  • Reduced Third-Party Risk — Audited assurance that directly reduces security risk for customers and their stakeholders
  • Data Breach Prevention — Rigorous audit processes identify security gaps before they can be exploited, protecting against financial, operational, and reputational damage
  • Regulatory Compliance Support — Supports compliance with GDPR, DPDPA, DORA, and other global data protection regulations that require vendor security assurance
  • Procurement Confidence — Simplifies enterprise vendor due diligence and accelerates security reviews across regulated industries

Part of a Comprehensive Global Compliance Portfolio

The SOC 2 Type II certification is one part of Skyhigh Security’s broad and growing compliance portfolio. In addition to SOC 2, Skyhigh Security holds:

  • FedRAMP High Authorization — U.S. Government (CASB, SWG, Advanced DLP)
  • DoD Impact Level 2 (IL2) Provisional Authorization — U.S. Department of Defense
  • ISO/IEC 27001 — International information security management (first CASB to achieve this)
  • IRAP PROTECTED (2026) — Australian Government cloud security
  • BSI C5 (2026) — German Federal Office for Information Security
  • GDPR — European Union data protection regulation
  • DORA — EU Digital Operational Resilience Act (financial sector)
  • DPDPA — India’s Data Protection and Digital Privacy Act
  • CSA STAR Level 1 — Cloud Security Alliance global benchmark

About SOC 2

Developed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA), SOC 2 defines criteria for managing customer data based on five trust service principles: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. A SOC 2 Type II report is an attestation that certain controls are in place and operating effectively to meet the AICPA’s Trust Services Criteria, confirmed by the opinion of an independent CPA firm.
