Planning Center, a leading company in church management software, has officially completed a Service Organization Control (SOC 2) audit of their systems, processes, and policies to confirm the safety and security of their customers' data.
SOC 2 is the standard in information security, and Planning Center is the only major church management system to comply. With this compliance, churches can confidently trust Planning Center to keep their highly personal and sensitive data as protected as possible—children's check-in locations, financial data, prayer requests, and more.
Planning Center demonstrated their protection of churches' data through stringent testing by a third party. The SOC 2 audit included a review of Planning Center's policies, backup and disaster recovery, incident response, firewall configurations, and other critical areas of their business such as confidentiality and privacy. To maintain their status, they will continue to monitor internal systems and meet security benchmarks year after year.
SOC 2 compliance is part of Planning Center's ongoing dedication to data security. This summer, they announced the release of two-step verification login for their products and they continue to pursue the strongest data security measures possible.
