HONG KONG, Jan. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- OSL Digital Securities (OSL), a leading regulated digital asset platform and a member of OSL Group (863.HK), today announced the successful completion of its SOC 2 Type 2 report for the second consecutive year.

The SOC 2 Type 2 certification, conducted by a renowned Big Four accounting firm, highlights OSL's high standards of security, availability, and confidentiality across its custody, ATS, and SaaS solutions. This certification provides important assurance to clients who require third-party validation to fulfill their due diligence and compliance requirements.

We have invested significantly into driving operational excellence and regulatory compliance, and maintaining our SOC 2 Type 2 certification is a key part of that commitment.

SOC 2, which stands for "System and Organisation Controls 2", is a framework that defines a set of rules and standards an organisation must follow to ensure the safety and security of the information it manages.
