Mainstream Technologies is both SOC 2 Type 2 certified and MSP Alliance Cyber Verify certified.

The MSP Alliance Cyber Verify certification covers 10 objectives: Governance, Policies and Procedures, Confidentiality and Privacy, Change Management, Service Operations Management, Information Security, Data Management, Physical Security, Billing and Reporting, and Corporate Health.

The SOC 2 and MSP Alliance Cyber Verify (MSPACV) Certification audits are similar but serve different purposes. The SOC 2 audit is an auditor to auditor report, while the MSP Alliance Cyber Verify Certification is a public report. The two reports, for members that complete the MSPACV Certification and SOC 2 audits simultaneously, use nearly identical testing protocols with the addition of an assessment of financial health in the MSPACV process which is not included in the SOC 2 scope.

The MSPACV Program offers vendor-agnostic certification for cloud and managed services practitioners worldwide.  It provides quality assurance, and a stamp of reliability for current, and potential customers.  It was the first certification created specifically for the managed services and cloud industry. Every certification comes with a written report, the entire process is documented, validated, and signed by a 3rd party accounting firm. The MSPACV has been reviewed by governmental agencies and regulatory bodies across the globe and is used and accepted in 5 continents around the world.
