Industry and Regulation Compliance
ConnectWise is routinely and thoroughly audited by independent third-party organizations and government agencies to ensure our products and practices comply with global and regional regulations and standards.
System and Organization Controls (SOC) 3
SOC 3 is a report, like the SOC 2, on a service organization’s controls relevant to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, or privacy. However, a SOC 3 can be distributed for general use and only states whether or not the entity has achieved the Trust Service criteria, without any description of tests, results or opinions.
ConnectWise Services have been assessed using the criteria set forth in paragraph 1.26 of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Guide Reporting on Controls at a Service Organization Relevant to Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, or Privacy (SOC 2®) for the suitability of the design and operating effectiveness for the security, availability, and confidentiality principles. The SOC 3 general use report for whether or not the Trust Service criteria was achieved is available for the following services:

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) is US legislation that provides data privacy and security provisions for safeguarding Protected Health Information (PHI). HIPAA applies to covered entities and business associates.
The HIPAA Security Rule establishes national standards to protect individuals’ electronic personal health information that is created, received, used, or maintained by a covered entity. The Security Rule requires appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and security of PHI. The HIPAA Breach Notification Rule requires covered entities and their business associates to provide notification following a breach of unsecured PHI. By law, the Privacy Rule applies only to covered entities (e.g., health plans, healthcare clearinghouses, and certain healthcare providers). However, parts may be applicable to business associates.
To request a business associate agreement (BAA) for one of our offerings please email Compliance@ConnectWise.com.
