Tidepool Achieves SOC 2 Type II Compliance
PALO ALTO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#DiabetesData–Tidepool, a software company committed to innovations in diabetes management, is thrilled to announce the achievement of SOC 2 Type II compliance in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) standards for SOC for Service Organizations also known as SSAE 18.
