Security isn’t an afterthought in workforce management \u2013 it’s the foundation. When businesses trust us with their time and attendance data, access control records, and employee information, they’re placing confidence in our ability to protect what matters most.<\/p>\n

GT Clocks has successfully completed both SOC 1 Type II and SOC 2 Type II examinations.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The SOC 2 Type II validates our operational controls across Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy.<\/p>\n

Completed on January 9, 2026, and conducted by A-LIGN, this certification validates that our infrastructure meets the highest standards for protecting customer data.<\/p>\n

Why SOC 2 Matters<\/h4>\n

SOC 2 is an independent audit framework established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). It evaluates how service organizations handle customer data through five distinct criteria:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Security:<\/strong> Protection against unauthorized access to systems and data<\/li>\n
  • Availability:<\/strong> Systems operate as needed for business operations<\/li>\n
  • Processing Integrity:<\/strong> Data processing is complete, valid, accurate, and authorized<\/li>\n
  • Confidentiality:<\/strong> Sensitive information is protected throughout its lifecycle<\/li>\n
  • Privacy:<\/strong> Personal information is collected, used, retained, and disclosed appropriately<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Achieving certification across all five criteria represents the comprehensive standard.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    Built for the Modern Workforce<\/h4>\n

    “For over three decades, GT Clocks has built our reputation on reliability and innovation,” says Colin Leatherbarrow, President. “Our SOC 2 certification is the latest example of our commitment to meeting the evolving security expectations of our customers across the US, UK, and international markets.”<\/p>\n

    Paul Smith, Grosvenor Technology\u2019s Head of Compliance and PMO, commented: “Securing a workforce requires more than just software firewalls; it demands a unified approach to infrastructure. Achieving compliance across all five Trust Services Criteria validates that our security governance is embedded in every layer of our operation.”<\/p>\n

    The certification aligns with our broader technology strategy. As we expand AI capabilities through GT Labs and introduce innovations like GT Tablet, maintaining rigorous security standards becomes increasingly critical.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    Privacy by Design<\/h4>\n

    Biometric data presents distinct privacy considerations. Our systems are built with privacy-first architecture \u2013 we don’t store actual fingerprints or facial images. Instead, we use secure templates that can’t be reverse-engineered,\u00a0<\/span>further\u00a0protecting employee privacy while maintaining the security benefits of biometric verification.<\/p>\n

    This approach reduces risk in the process, which is in line with privacy regulations globally and gives businesses the additional protections against ‘buddy punching’ that they need. It’s the foundation that makes features like contactless facial recognition and fingerprint verification both secure and compliant.<\/p>\n

    The Foundation for What’s Next<\/h4>\n

    SOC 2 achievement isn’t a destination \u2013 it’s a commitment to ongoing vigilance. As we develop our solutions, expand cloud capabilities, and introduce new hardware, this framework ensures security remains central to every decision.<\/p>\n

    The future of workforce management depends on accurate, real-time data. That future only works if businesses can trust the systems collecting, processing, and protecting that data.<\/p>\n

    This certification validates that trust.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
