Recognition confirms data-driven contract lifecycle management provider’s unwavering commitment to data security and protecting customers’ sensitive contract data.


Contract Logix, a leading provider of data-driven contract management software, today announced that it has successfully completed its SOC 2 Type II audit by KirkpatrickPrice with zero exceptions. The successful completion of the rigorous evaluation and auditing process of SOC 2 Type II further demonstrates Contract Logix’s commitment to taking a security-first approach with its contract lifecycle management software.

As part of the extensive and comprehensive auditing process, KirkpatrickPrice reviewed and tested Contract Logix’s internal controls and confirmed that they meet the AICPA’s Trust Services Criteria for security, availability, and confidentiality. The SOC 2 Type II compliance validates Contract Logix’s commitment to delivering high quality, secure services to its clients and their customers, partners, and vendors.
