Vonya Global is Lowering the Cost of a SAS 70 Assessment

Statement on Auditing Standards Number 70 (SAS 70) issued by the AICPA requires service organizations to obtain an external opinion assessing internal controls. Issued in 1993, the SAS 70 is not a new requirement but it has increased in relative importance since the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX, Sarbox), Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), and other new regulatory requirements. Any service organization holding third party data must provide assurance that the data is protected. The certification process can be quite costly for all service organizations, and disproportionally so for smaller companies.

Vonya Global has a history of working with companies on SAS 70 readiness. The work completed by Vonya Global helps companies streamline their internal processes and controls making it easier for the certifying agent to complete the assessment. The easier it is to certify, the lower the cost of certification. As the SAS 70 is an annual requirement, the cost savings are realized each year.

For a limited time, Vonya Global is offering its SAS 70 readiness services at a discounted price. For more information please contact a representative of the firm.
