Avant is dedicated to continuous improvement in security, integrity, and interoperability. That’s why we’re proud to share that Avant has officially achieved SOC 2 Type II compliance, a significant milestone in our ongoing commitment to data security, reliability, and responsible management of information.
What SOC 2 Type II Means
SOC 2 Type II is an independent, third-party validation that evaluates not just how security controls are designed, but how consistently and effectively they operate over time. The audit examines safeguards related to security, availability, and confidentiality, key areas for organizations that manage sensitive data.
For our partners, this means added assurance that Avant’s systems and processes are built to protect data and operate with integrity throughout the year, not just at a single point in time.
Why This Matters to Educators and Institutions
Avant works with K–12 districts, higher education institutions, ministries of education, and global partners who rely on our assessments and technology for high-stakes decisions. Achieving SOC 2 Type II compliance reinforces our ability to:
- Protect test taker and educator data
- Support secure, scalable assessment programs
- Align with institutional and governmental compliance expectations
- Build long-term trust with our partners
This achievement reflects the behind-the-scenes work of our teams to embed security, monitoring, and accountability into everyday operations—not as a checkbox, but as a core value.
A Continued Commitment to Trust and Transparency
SOC 2 Type II compliance is not an endpoint. It’s part of an ongoing process of continuous improvement as security standards evolve and partner expectations grow. We remain committed to transparency, proactive risk management, and maintaining systems that educators can trust.
