Alcatraz, the leader in facial biometric authentication for physical access, has successfully completed its SOC 2 examination as of November 7, 2025. The independent audit was conducted by A-Lign, the leading provider in cyber security compliance trusted by more than 4,000 global organisations.
“Trust in biometric systems depends on strong data stewardship,” said Tina D’Agostin, CEO of Alcatraz. “At Alcatraz, we work with some of the world’s most sensitive data and environments, and it’s a responsibility that we take seriously. Our platform is purpose-built with privacy at its core so customers can deploy biometric access with confidence across their most critical environments. Privacy guides how every identity experience is designed, operated and secured.”
Established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), the SOC 2 examination is designed for organisations of any size, regardless of industry and scope, to ensure the personal assets of their potential and existing customers are protected. SOC 2 reports are recognized globally and affirm that a company’s infrastructure, software, people, data, policies, procedures and operations have been formally reviewed.
Alcatraz leverages AI-powered facial authentication technology to enable private, secure and seamless entry across highly sensitive environments. Its solution, the Rock X, is deployed across Fortune 100 campuses, AI data centres, financial institutions, stadiums and government facilities, where precision, compliance and trust matter most. The technology is designed with privacy at its core, incorporating opt-in enrollment, encrypted biometric templates and detailed audit reports to support compliance with major data protection frameworks, including the GDPR, CCPA, CPRA and BIPA.
“Congratulations to Alcatraz for completing their SOC 2 audit, a widely recognised signal of trust and security,” said Steve Simmons, COO of A-Lign. “It’s great to work with organisations like Alcatraz, who understand the value of expertise in driving an efficient audit and the importance of a high-quality final report.”
This attestation reinforces Alcatraz’s continued commitment to compliance and ensures customers with the confidence that required safeguards are in place to protect their data.
