Revizto’s Unmatched Security Credentials: Why SOC2, ISO 27017, and UpGuard Matter

Security is non-negotiable—especially in the Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operations (AECO) industry, where sensitive project data must be safeguarded against cyber threats. Revizto stands at the forefront of security excellence, having achieved the highly regarded SOC2 Type 2 compliance, ISO 27001 and ISO 27017 certifications, and an impressive UpGuard security rating. These credentials reflect our unwavering commitment to keeping customer data secure across jurisdictions and protecting sensitive projects from potential vulnerabilities.
What are SOC2, ISO 27001, and ISO 27017?
It’s essential to understand what SOC2 Type 2 and ISO 27017 compliance entail.
- SOC2 Type 2: SOC2 is an American security standard specifically designed for service providers storing customer data in the cloud. It requires deep checks and verifications through an audit process that ensures a company has robust security controls in place. Unlike simple checklist-based compliance, SOC2 demands ongoing verification through an observation period, where companies must demonstrate adherence to security protocols over time.
- ISO 27001: ISO 27001 is an international standard for Information Security Management Systems. It provides a systematic approach to managing sensitive company information, ensuring its confidentiality, integrity, and availability through risk management processes. Organizations that achieve ISO 27001 certification demonstrate their commitment to protecting data, complying with legal requirements, and continually improving their security practices.
- ISO 27017: A globally recognized certification specifically tailored for cloud security, ISO 27017 validates that a company has the necessary security controls to protect cloud-based systems. It is considered a foundational yet high-level certification, ensuring the presence of security measures but not requiring the same in-depth audit process as SOC2.
How Revizto Took the Most Rigorous Approach to SOC2 Type 2
Not all SOC2 audits are created equal. Some companies aim for the easiest path to compliance by minimizing the scope of their audit or opting for the shortest observation period. At Revizto, we chose the most stringent route to prove our commitment to security with 3 out of 5 TSC (Trust Services Criteria)— Security, Availability, and Confidentiality for the first audit.
- A 12-Month Observation Period: Unlike many companies that opt for a 3- or 6-month observation period, Revizto committed to a full 12-month observation period, the longest and most rigorous option. This ensured that our security processes were tested over an extended timeframe, proving their effectiveness and consistency.
- Comprehensive Scope: Some organizations narrow their audit scope to make compliance easier, only including a portion of their product or infrastructure. Revizto, however, included all processes and all company operations within our SOC2 scope, demonstrating full transparency and a genuine commitment to security.
- Full Disclosure: Many companies do not disclose their SOC2 scope or observation period, which can obscure the true rigor of their certification. Revizto takes a different approach—we are fully transparent about our security posture, setting a benchmark for openness in the industry.
Security is not just about passing an audit—it’s about real-world reliability. We chose the longest observation period and included our entire company in scope because we want to provide our customers with true security, not just a certification badge.

Going Beyond SOC2 and ISO 27001
Beyond SOC2 and ISO 27017, Revizto has also achieved an exceptional security rating from UpGuard, an independent security risk assessment platform. Our score of 909/950 (Grade A) places us among the highest-rated companies in the industry.
Revizto has also secured the UK government-backed Cyber Essentials CSA STAR Level 1 assurance, and are currently in the process of securing Cloud Computing Compliance Criteria Catalogue (C5) certification, which was developed and is overseen by the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI).
Why Security Matters in the AECO Industry
Security in the AECO industry is paramount. Companies working on large-scale projects handle vast amounts of sensitive data, potentially spanning multiple jurisdictions and regulatory environments. From government buildings to transportation networks and commercial developments, the security of these digital assets is critical.
At Revizto, we take this responsibility seriously. Our SOC2 Type 2 compliance, ISO 27017 certification, and elite UpGuard rating are not just checkboxes—they are proof of our ongoing commitment to protecting our customers’ most critical project data. By choosing Revizto, AECO professionals can trust that their data is in the safest hands, ensuring compliance, reliability, and peace of mind in every project they undertake.
