NEW YORK, FEBRUARY 24, 2022 — Clearview AI,  the leading facial recognition company that provides powerful and reliable photo identification technology to law enforcement agencies across the country, announced the successfully completion of its System and Organization Controls 2 (SOC 2) examination certifying the company maintains effective controls over the security and processing integrity of its clients’ data. The examination was conducted by BARR Advisory, P.A. 

SOC 2 is an auditing procedure conducted by licensed and regulated certified public accountants that rigorously reviews data service providers to ensure the secure management and accurate processing of data. It is widely considered the highest standard of cybersecurity certification and is intended to protect company’s interests and intellectual property when they engage data service providers.
