Hit Promotional Products (PPAI 113910, S14) – the No. 4 supplier on the 2023 PPAI 100 – has successfully completed a third-party SOC 2 audit, ensuring adherence to the highest standards of data security.
A Service Organization Control (SOC) report focuses on security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality and privacy, and has become increasingly in demand as a requirement among security-conscious companies.
- Through the implementation of a comprehensive set of controls encompassing security, confidentiality, processing integrity, privacy and availability, Hit has successfully enhanced data security procedures, streamlined risk management and bolstered operational efficiency while fortifying its incident response preparedness.
“This has been quite a journey,” says CIO Raj Mukherjee says. “Our infrastructure, network and software team played a critical role in enabling us to meet our goal. This was one of the hardest projects we have undertaken, and due credit goes to CJ Schmidt and Eric Shonebarger for their support.
“Cyber is one thing that keeps me up at night, but these milestones help us as a team focus on the next steps. This will continue to be a journey for us as this field is ever-evolving. We recently joined the RH-ISAC group, where we are getting great intel from the ecommerce giants in our industry and would highly recommend others to consider being a member of this amazing group.”
In March, the supplier’s systems were temporarily downed by a cyber security-related incident.
