Independence

There are two separate legal entities under the Abacus Group Holding Company: Abacus Group and Gotham Security. Gotham Security reports to the President of Abacus Group, not the CTO of Abacus Group. This structure is similar to that of investment banks adhering to SEC Reg FD. 

Abacus Group (blue team) maintains its own independent cybersecurity team that manages the Abacus Security Platform. The platform’s security controls are evaluated and tested three times per year by independent 3rd party cybersecurity firms.

SOC 1 Type 2 compliance, which Abacus maintains annually, ensures the segregation of duties between the organizations and their staff. SOC 2 certification is in process.
