Dress Code Achieves SOC2 Type2 Report for Enhanced Security Governance

Dress Code SOC2 Type2 Report Acquisition

Dress Code Inc., headquartered in Chuo, Tokyo, and led by CEO Yuki Ejiri, has recently achieved the SOC2 Type2 report. This accomplishment enables companies utilizing the DRESS CODE workforce management platform to more efficiently conduct internal and external audits, particularly in evaluating internal controls.

What is the SOC2 Type2 Report?

The SOC2 report serves as a third-party audit document that certifies how service providers, like SaaS and cloud companies, ensure the security and privacy of customer data. It is based on standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and is evaluated and reported by independent auditors such as accounting firms. While the previously obtained Type1 report addressed specific management conditions at a point in time, the newly acquired Type2 report provides a guarantee regarding the effectiveness of internal control designs and operations over a defined period.

Background and Purpose of the Acquisition

Since its inception, Dress Code has placed a high priority on security as a foundation for growth, dedicating substantial efforts to establishing a globally recognized security governance structure. Given its position as a SaaS and cloud service provider, enabling a secure environment where client companies can confidently entrust their critical information has been deemed essential. The company has undertaken comprehensive initiatives to meet stringent standards, leading to the earlier acquisition of the SOC2 Type1 report, and now with the SOC2 Type2 report, its security posture is further strengthened.

By adding the SOC2 Type2 report to its existing ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27017 certifications, Dress Code demonstrates an unwavering commitment to security. This shows not only reliability to clients but also supports its position in a rapidly growing enterprise market and international landscape.

Future Prospects

Going forward, Dress Code aims to continue enhancing its security governance structure while actively acquiring evaluations backed by third-party institutions for continuous improvement. The goal is to provide the highest standard of products and services that meet customer trust. Additionally, the company is committed to complying with domestic and international regulations (such as GDPR and APPI) to ensure that clients can use its services with utmost confidence.
