Security questions usually don’t come from curiosity. They come from responsibility.
Whether you’re answering auditors, customers, or your own leadership, you need clear, accurate information you can stand behind. This update provides exactly that: a transparent view of where SAFEQ Cloud stands today, without overstatement or ambiguity.
Certifications matter, but only when they reflect how a service actually operates. Here’s what Y Soft’s current security posture means in practice.
What is SAFEQ Cloud’s Current Security Posture?
SAFEQ Cloud is considered a secure print solution that operates under established security and compliance frameworks, including ISO 27001:2022 and SOC 2 security compliance.

Y Soft holds an ISO 27001 certification, demonstrating our commitment to information security management through regular surveillance and recertification audits. On top of that, SAFEQ Cloud recently achieved SOC 2 Type 1 certification, confirming that its security controls are both correctly designed and properly implemented as of the date of assessment.
These certifications provide assurance to our customers and stakeholders that we actively follow robust security frameworks, that SAFEQ Cloud security is independently assessed, and that everything lives up to industry standards.
What Does SOC 2 Certification Mean for IT Teams?
SOC 2 audits assess the security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy of service organizations. It assesses both the design and operation of controls, depending on the report type, providing IT teams with evidence to trust the systems they have in place and satisfy vendor risk requirements.
Zeroing in on SOC 2 Type 1 audits, this report validates a system’s security readiness and control design (whether the design of implemented security controls meets relevant trust criteria).
The Type 1 assessment confirms that the required security controls exist, are appropriately designed, and are in use. SOC 2 Type 1 compliance does not account for long-term operations, which is instead the focus of SOC 2 Type 2, a certification currently underway for SAFEQ Cloud. Our recent SOC 2 Type 1 certification milestone confirms a solid security foundation, not a final state.
How Does Y Soft Approach Ongoing Security?
At Y Soft, we treat security as a continuous operational responsibility that stretches across multiple security layers, spanning prevention, detection and response, as well as visibility and compliance.
We secure our cloud environment the same way you’d secure your home.
For prevention, think strong locks and reinforced windows. We run daily automated vulnerability scans (including third-party components) and conduct regular independent third‑party penetration tests. SAFEQ Cloud also runs on a fully implemented and certified Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC) and is updated across all data centers every two weeks.
For detection and response (cameras and sensors in the house analogy), we’re continuously improving our Managed Extended Detection and Response (MXDR) capabilities as part of our cloud security protocols. Monitoring tools oversee both Y Soft’s internal infrastructure and all cloud environments.
Lastly, we have visibility and compliance. This is the part we’ve already covered above: certifications and adherence to security frameworks like ISO 27001 and SOC 2 compliance standards.
To ensure SAFEQ Cloud remains a secure print solution, we maintain its security through a continuous loop approach, which means our security does not stop at certifications.
What Customers and Partners Can Expect Next
Any updates on our security status will be communicated to both partners and customers as soon as we’ve completed additional assessments and reviews. You can find and download all current certifications and compliance reports on our trust center: Y Soft's Trust Center
We deliberately communicate only validated, independently confirmed information rather than making forward‑looking claims or vague promises about what may come next.
We root our approach in transparency, caution, and accuracy, ensuring we earn trust through verifiable evidence and real progress rather than speculative timelines or projections that could misrepresent our actual security posture.
Final Points
At Y Soft, we believe security is best communicated clearly, conservatively, and with accountability.
As security has become a non-negotiable for our customers and partners, it’s more important than ever for us to communicate our security position in a verifiable, transparent manner that doesn’t leave anything unvoiced or open to interpretation.
One thing to remember: SAFEQ Cloud's security is an ongoing commitment, not a one-time announcement. We invest hundreds of thousands each year in advanced security tools and continuous monitoring to keep our security mechanisms running smoothly.
