 Trust & Will, the leading digital estate planning platform in the U.S, is proud to announce that it has received a clean SOC 2 Type I attestation report. To date, Trust & Will is the only online estate planning company to carry SOC 2 certification. The attestation report affirms that Trust & Will’s information security practices, policies, procedures, and operations meet the rigorous SOC 2 Trust Service Criteria for security.

Trust & Will is now the only digital estate planning company to carry SOC 2 compliance. Obtaining SOC 2 ensures the highest standards for customer data and security.

Developed by the Association of International Certified Professional Accountants (AICPA), SOC 2 is an extensive auditing procedure that ensures a company is handling customer data securely and in a manner that protects the organization as well as the privacy of its customers. SOC 2 is designed specifically for service providers storing customer data in the cloud.

“We are delighted to receive a clean SOC 2 Type I attestation report as it substantiates our ongoing commitment to securing our customers’ data,” said Eric Urhausen, Head of Engineering at Trust & Will. “We continuously prioritize the improvement of our security posture, which helps increase trust in our product and in the digital estate planning industry as a whole.”
