SKYWAY CANADA ACHIEVES SOC 2 TYPE 1 CERTIFICATION

Skyway Canada is proud to announce that Skytrax has successfully achieved SOC 2 Type 1 certification, marking a significant milestone in the company’s commitment to security, compliance, and operational excellence.

Skytrax is Skyway Canada’s advanced project management application, designed to enhance efficiency, transparency, and collaboration in scaffolding and construction projects. The platform provides real-time data insights, digital workflows, and efficient task management, allowing teams to streamline operations and improve project execution.

SOC 2 (System and Organization Controls 2) is a widely recognized auditing standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). It ensures that service providers securely manage data based on Trust Services Criteria, including security, availability, and data integrity. Achieving Type 1 certification validates that Skytrax meets these rigorous standards, reinforcing Skyway Canada’s dedication` to safeguarding customer data and optimizing project management processes.

A Company-Wide Commitment to Excellence

Achieving SOC 2 Type 1 certification was a cross-departmental effort, demonstrating the strength of Skyway Canada’s IT, HR, Finance, and Operations teams. Each department played a critical role in ensuring compliance and enhancing security measures:

• IT Department – Led the initiative by implementing robust security controls, risk management strategies, and data protection protocols for Skytrax.
• HR Department – Focused on employee training, access management, and compliance policies to ensure security best practices were upheld across the organization.
• Finance Department – Supported the certification process by maintaining secure financial controls and ensuring compliance with data protection standards.
• Operations Team – Ensured that Skytrax workflows aligned with compliance requirements, optimizing the platform’s functionality while maintaining security and efficiency.

“This certification is a reflection of our company-wide commitment to security, compliance, and operational excellence,” said John Grassa, President and CEO of Skyway Canada. “From IT to HR, Finance, and Operations, every department played a vital role in ensuring that Skytrax and the organization meets the highest industry standards. This achievement strengthens our customers’ trust and sets the foundation for continuous improvements.”

A Strategic Step Toward SOC 2 Type 2 Certification

With SOC 2 Type 1 certification now complete, Skyway Canada is actively working toward SOC 2 Type 2 certification, which will further demonstrate its ability to maintain these security controls over time.

“Achieving SOC 2 Type 1 certification is a testament to our commitment to cybersecurity and compliance,” said Jay Sisican, Head of IT at Skyway Canada. “The Skytrax Team has worked diligently to implement best-in-class security practices, and this is only the beginning. As we progress toward SOC 2 Type 2, we will continue enhancing our security framework to ensure the highest level of protection for our customers and partners.”

As Skyway Canada continues to refine Skytrax, customers can expect ongoing enhancements in cybersecurity, compliance, and digital innovation.
