Columbus, Ohio-based Title First Agency recently completed its Service Organization Controls 1 (SOC 1) Report on Controls to earn its Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements No. 18 (SSAE-18) certification.
Title First Agency has earned SSAE accreditation for the last three years.
The independent auditing firm A-LIGN conducted the examination.
“Title First is one of the few title agencies in the industry having an SSAE 18 certification,” Title First President and Owner Sean A. Stoner said in a release. “Title First holds itself to a superior standard, which is why we decided that completion and passage of the SOC 1 examination was necessary to demonstrate our adherence to strict controls over data security.”
The SSAE-18 certification replaced the SSAE-16 certification, which Title First Agency had previously earned.
