In a significant step towards enhancing trust and data security, LeadAngel has successfully renewed its SOC 2 Type II certification. This achievement demonstrates the company’s unwavering commitment to protecting sensitive customer data while delivering smart, secure and reliable lead management solutions that Sales and Marketing teams can confidently depend on.

In today’s data-driven business environment, security is no longer an option but a necessity. Organizations are expected to maintain the highest standards of security for data protection to safeguard sensitive information from increasing threats. By renewing its SOC 2 Type II compliance, LeadAngel has once again proven its dedication to staying ahead of these evolving risks and ensuring that customer data remains safe, reinforcing its commitment to long-term customer security. 

LeadAngel’s Role in Secure Lead Management

LeadAngel has built a platform designed to enhance the productivity of Sales and Marketing teams. By combining security with functionality, LeadAngel helps organizations streamline their lead management processes without compromising on data protection. 

The platform supports several key processes that empower the Sales and Marketing teams to operate more efficiently, including:

  • Lead to Account Matching: Aligning leads with the correct account is critical for accurate and effective follow-up. LeadAngel automates this process, minimizing errors and ensuring that sales teams are working with the right information at all times, which enhances team productivity and accuracy in follow-ups.
  • Lead Routing: Getting leads to the right person at the right time can make or break a sale. LeadAngel’s advanced  Lead routing system goes beyond basic assignment, ensuring leads are promptly routed to the appropriate team members, which can improve response times and maximize conversion opportunities.
  • Data Cleanup: Clean, accurate data is essential for effective sales and marketing efforts. LeadAngel’s data cleanup feature helps organizations maintain high-quality CRM data, minimizing errors and maximizing the effectiveness of their outreach.

These features, combined with the renewed SOC 2 Type II certification, make LeadAngel a powerful tool for Sales and Marketing teams that need both performance and security. 

The Importance of SOC 2 Compliance

SOC 2, or Service Organization Control 2, is a voluntary compliance standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants(AICPA). This certification evaluates a company’s controls related to data security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. For businesses like LeadAngel that handle vast amounts of customer data—particularly in cloud environments—SOC 2 compliance is essential for demonstrating that their security practices meet rigorous, industry-approved standards.

While many companies strive for SOC 2 Type I compliance, which certifies that controls are suitably designed at a point in time, LeadAngel has gone a step further by achieving SOC 2 Type II compliance. This certification doesn’t just look at how controls are designed; it evaluates their operational effectiveness over an extended period. In other words, SOC 2 Type II proves that LeadAngel doesn’t just put security measures in place but consistently upholds them.

This difference is crucial for customers who rely on LeadAngel’s solutions to manage sensitive business data. With SOC 2 Type II, they can trust that LeadAngel’s security controls have been rigorously tested and proven to function effectively over time, providing peace of mind and fostering long-term trust.

How LeadAngel achieved it’s SOC 2 Compliance

An independent third-party auditing firm conducted the SOC 2 Type II evaluation, thoroughly reviewing LeadAngel’s security practices, processes, and controls. This audit confirmed that LeadAngel has once again met the stringent SOC 2 standards set forth by the AICPA across the key principles of security, availability, and confidentiality.

These rigorous audits are designed to hold organizations accountable, ensuring that their security controls are not only present but are actively protecting customer data in real-world scenarios. 

For LeadAngel, this certification is a testament to the company’s dedication to maintaining high levels of security and constantly improving its infrastructure to meet evolving security demands.

SOC 2 Compliance Benefits For LeadAngel’s Customers

This is especially important for businesses handling large volumes of sensitive information, such as customer contacts, sales leads, and CRM data.

By maintaining SOC 2 compliance, LeadAngel assures its customers that its platform is a secure choice for their lead management needs.

It demonstrates LeadAngel’s ongoing commitment to security by verifying that its controls are effective over an extended period. This continuous adherence to best practices ensures that customers can rely on the platform’s security over the long term.
