"We are pleased that our SOC 2 report has shown that we have the appropriate controls in place to mitigate risks related to the services we provide to our customers,” said Ramesh Bobba, CTO and co-founder of Minerva CQ. “SOC certification is vital for our brand and for the safety of our customers and their customers. Research has shown that companies with compliance failures spend an average of $2.3 million more than those that comply. The average cost of a data breach, with high levels of compliance failures, was $5.65 million in 2020. Most importantly the cost of non-compliance can erode that customer trust that takes years to establish.”
