This certification came following a significant data breach the company suffered in June. Ledger did not, however, decide to conduct its security audit because of the breach, according to comments from a Ledger representative.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ledger is always seeking to raise the security standards and has been working on getting the attestation prior to the data breach,&#8221; the representative told Cointelegraph.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> of Ledger&#8217;s completed SOC 2 Type 1 audit came in October, essentially giving the market a level of confidence based on a trusted mainstream security benchmark.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The SOC II attestation refers both to the System, in this case, Ledger Vault only, and the Organization: Ledger as a whole,&#8221; the representative explained. &#8220;Hence, if the SOC 2 Type 1 only <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>lies to Ledger Vault, the Ledger organization as a whole has been audited (onboarding of collaborators, third party interactions, etc.).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ledger was made aware of a database weakness in July, which they quickly patched. The company, however, also uncovered a previous\u00a0large data breach that occurred in June, which leaked thousands customers&#8217; names, addresses, and other potentially sensitive information.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kristy-Leigh Minehan, Former CTO of Core Scientific, told Cointelegraph &#8220;SOC2 Type 1 is about assessing the design of a security process (or processes) at a specific point in time (or, as of a specified date).&#8221; She clarified:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;They would only be evaluated up until the point when they executed it, not necessarily when they were awarded it.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more News articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/general\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/cointelegraph.com\/news\/ledger-s-recent-security-audit-was-unconnected-to-their-data-breach-in-june\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;# Ledger\u2019s recent security audit was unconnected to their data breach in June &#8221; Popular hardware wallet company Ledger recently announced that they had passed a notable security evaluation, known as SOC 2 Type 1.
