Independent audit validates the consistent operation of security controls supporting secure, reliable cloud-based technology.
Pittsburgh, July 29, 2026 – ePS (eProductivity Software) today announced the successful completion of its SOC 2 Type 2 examination, providing independent, third-party validation that the company's security controls are not just well designed, but operating as intended.
The examination was conducted by an independent licensed CPA firm and covered the audit period from November 6, 2025 through May 25, 2026. Where a Type 1 examination confirms that controls are appropriately designed at a single point in time, Type 2 goes further. It tests whether those controls perform consistently, over an extended period.
Security has become a deciding factor for packaging manufacturers choosing a technology partner. As more manufacturers move critical operations onto connected systems and cloud-based platforms, they need proof, not just promises, that their data is protected. This examination provides that proof.
"Our customers are trusting us with the systems that run their operations every day," said Scott Brown, Chief Information Officer at ePS. "This result tells them that trust is well placed. It's independent confirmation that we take that responsibility seriously, and that we'll keep earning it as we grow."
The milestone builds on ePS' successful completion of its SOC 2 Type 1 examination in November 2025. The examination assessed ePS against the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' (AICPA) Trust Services Criteria for Security.
For customers, this means greater confidence in the operational maturity behind ePS' cloud solutions. Independently validated controls include:
- Role-based access controls aligned with business responsibilities and regularly reviewed
- Multi-factor authentication protecting critical systems
- Secure software development and controlled change management, including defined reviews, approvals, testing, and controlled deployments
- Continuous logging, monitoring, and alerting
- Incident response, backup, and recovery processes built for operational resilience
ISO 27001:2022 is one of the world’s most widely recognized information security standards. This certification confirms that ePS applies consistent, audited security practices across design, development, hosting, and operational processes for its global cloud solutions.
Achieving this certification demonstrates:
- Strong ISMS governance aligned with international best practices
- Effective risk management and security controls
- Enhanced assurance for customers evaluating cloud vendors
- A mature and continuously improving security posture
The examination doesn't change how ePS products work day to day. What it changes is the evidence behind them. Customers now have independent assurance to bring to their own governance and risk reviews.
"This examination is another milestone in our cloud-first journey," Brown said. "It's independent confirmation that the security practices behind our cloud solutions are consistent and reliable, not just at a point in time, but over the long term. That's what gives packaging manufacturers the confidence to run their operations in the cloud with us."
Brown added that as ePS continues to expand its unified packaging manufacturing platform, CommandCore™, security remains a foundational priority, integrated from the ground up rather than added on as the company scales.
The ePS SOC 2 Type 2 report is available to customers and qualified business partners upon request and subject to appropriate confidentiality requirements. Customers and business partners can learn more about ePS' approach to security, compliance, and data protection online.
