Independent KPMG audit validates the operational effectiveness of Unico’s security controls and system availability across its cloud infrastructure.
SÃO PAULO, January 13, 2026 – Unico, Latin America's leading identity verification network, has officially achieved SOC 2 Type II compliance, one of the world's most stringent information security standards for technology providers and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platforms. The independent audit report was issued by KPMG, following the rigorous Trust Services Criteria established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA).
While a Type I report evaluates system design, the SOC 2 Type II certification independently verifies that Unico's security and availability controls are not only properly designed but operate effectively over a continuous annual evaluation period. This milestone underscores the company's operational maturity and infrastructural consistency.
The comprehensive audit assessed the description, design, and operational effectiveness of Unico's internal controls based on two core Trust Services Criteria: Security and Availability—both of which are critical for enterprises managing sensitive data and mission-critical digital infrastructure.
"Achieving SOC 2 Type II compliance reinforces Unico's unwavering commitment to the highest global standards of security, reliability, and governance," said Gabriela Dias, Director of Product and Security at Unico. "This independent validation aligns our operations with the strict compliance frameworks demanded by our enterprise clients, global partners, auditors, and regulators across international markets."
Unico's SOC 2 Type II report provides an unvarnished, deep-dive view into its architecture, specifically detailing its protocols across core operational vectors: Access Control & Identity Management; Continuous Monitoring & Security Event Detection; Network Security & Vulnerability Management; Incident Response & Sensitive Data Protection; Privacy Policies & Continuous Security Training; Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery (BC/DR).
The audit scope comprehensively covers the Unico IDCloud platform and Unico IDPay, both running natively on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) infrastructure, further validating the resilience and scalability of the company's cloud-native architecture.
Designed for Unico's current enterprise clients and prospective partners, this report provides corporate procurement teams, risk officers, and regulators with objective proof of the company's architecture, data flows, security controls, and risk-mitigation strategies.
Beyond global recognition, SOC 2 Type II compliance drives further standardization across Unico's internal IT and security operations, delivering heightened operational efficiency, consistency, and predictability—critical attributes for enterprises navigating the front lines of the digital economy.
With this benchmark achieved, Unico solidifies its position as an essential, high-trust infrastructure layer for secure, highly available, and globally scalable digital journeys.
