Concept3D Strengthens Security Transparency with New Trust Center

This newly established central hub underscores the organization’s ongoing dedication to security, openness, and yearly SOC 2 Type II certification

Security goes beyond an annual certification for us—it represents a constant dedication to how we develop, run, and maintain our platform”— Scott Nicholls, VP of Software Engineering at Concept3DDENVER, CO, UNITED STATES, July 27, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — With higher education institutions facing heightened cybersecurity demands and more intricate vendor evaluation procedures, Concept3D today announced the debut of its Trust Center. This central hub is intended to simplify access to security and compliance details for both existing and potential clients.

Created to lessen the workload associated with security evaluations and vendor audits, the Trust Center offers a unified location where universities and colleges can obtain essential security materials. These include Concept3D’s Privacy Policy, HECVAT paperwork, and requests for its SOC 2 Type II report along with other compliance documents. By providing these resources in an easily reachable format, Concept3D assists institutions in streamlining security questionnaires, speeding up procurement reviews, and making well-informed technology choices with increased assurance.

This launch reflects Concept3D’s sustained focus on cultivating a robust security framework and delivering the openness that clients anticipate from a dependable technology ally. As part of this pledge, Concept3D continues to successfully uphold annual SOC 2 Type II compliance, adhering to the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) standards for SOC for Service Organizations, commonly referred to as SSAE 18.

“Security isn’t simply a certification we earn each year—it’s a continuous investment in the way we build, operate, and support our platform,” said Scott Nicholls, VP of Software Engineering at Concept3D. “The launch of our Trust Center reflects that philosophy by giving institutions easier access to the information they need while demonstrating our commitment to transparency, accountability, and protecting customer data.”

SOC 2 Type II audits offer independent confirmation that an organization sustains effective controls concerning security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy over a period of time. By preserving annual SOC 2 Type II compliance, Concept3D showcases its dedication to operational excellence and secure software development methodologies throughout its product lineup, which includes interactive maps, virtual tours, centralized event calendars, and room reservation software.

Concept3D’s SOC 2 Type II audit was carried out by Prescient Assurance, aided by Secureframe, a prominent compliance automation platform. Secureframe supports Concept3D’s continuous compliance strategy through ongoing monitoring, tracking, and remediation assistance.

“Security has become an essential part of every technology partnership in higher education,” said Gordon Boyes, CEO of Concept3D. “Institutions need partners that not only maintain strong security practices but also make it easy to understand and validate them. Our Trust Center, combined with our ongoing annual SOC 2 Type II compliance, reflects our commitment to earning that trust every day through transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement.”
