Everi Holdings’ subsidiary, Everi Payments, has successfully finished its System and Organization Control (SOC) 2 Type 1 audit examination.
The SOC 2 examined the company’s fintech, loyalty and digital iGaming platforms, to maintain effective data privacy, security, availability, processing, integrity and confidentiality.
The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) designed the SOC 2 “to meet the needs of existing or potential customers who need assurance about the effectiveness of controls used by hospitality customers to process customer information.”
Everi said its use of SOC 2 provides its operators with an additional safety layer to protect customer data.
Company SVP and CISO Lance Harris said: "Maintaining SOC 2 compliance confirms for our casino customers that Everi has the highest level of security and controls for data safety and privacy.
"We have an unwavering commitment to SOC 2 compliance across our spectrum of products and services, which ensures Everi's systems are protected against any unauthorized physical or logical access."
Everi Holdings provides land-based and digital casino gaming content and products, as well as financial technology and player loyalty solutions.
The company develops gaming machines, gaming systems and content for both land-based and iGaming operators. It focuses on player engagement and assisting casino customers to operate more efficiently.
Company President and CEO Randy Taylor described the completed audit as a “major milestone” and said it is a key component for building and maintaining quality customer service.
He commented: "Our relationship with our customers is built on trust, and we strive to ensure our customers are confident we are committed to continually investing to maintain the highest levels of security and compliance for our FinTech and loyalty solutions.
"Achieving SOC2 compliance is a major milestone that acknowledges our efforts and reinforces our commitment to ensuring that security is a fundamental component of our company culture."
