Utrecht, 28 January 2026
Northwave has received the SOC 2® Type 1 report. It's a key milestone in strengthening the trust we build with our clients.
This report confirms that our security and privacy controls are thoroughly documented, designed and implemented to protect the data entrusted to us. Achieving this milestone required dedication across teams, multiple evidence cycles, and auditor reviews and it demonstrates our commitment to operational excellence.
Why this matters
Earning SOC 2 Type 1 strengthens confidence in our Managed Detection & Response, Managed Security Office, and Human Risk Management services. It ensures that our clients can rely on Northwave as a secure and transparent partner, fully aligned with the highest standards of data protection.
What SOC 2 Type 1 means for our clients
SOC 2 is an internationally recognized assurance framework developed by the AICPA. It evaluates how organizations manage data based on the Trust Services Criteria: Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy. Our Type 1 report verifies that our controls are designed effectively at a specific point in time, offering clear, independent assurance to current and future clients.
What’s Next
This milestone sets the stage for our SOC 2 Type 2 journey. This year, we’ll focus on demonstrating the ongoing, consistent operation of our controls, deepening the assurance we provide as we continue to grow and innovate.
