Napco StarLink Operating Center (NOC) Receives SOC 2 Rating; Providing Better Cybersecurity & Data Privacy Protection for Its Dealers

Amityville, NY - NAPCO Security Technologies announces its StarLink Network Operation Center (NOC) is SOC 2 Rated. In Addition to its UL Listed Certification, Napco's StarLink NOC has undergone rigorous criteria to implement and meet SOC Policies & Trust Services Criteria for cybersecurity and data privacy protection, i.e., providing added security for all Napco's Dealers' Accounts. The Company took these important steps as cyber attack breaches & huge ransomware demands are becoming more prevalent in the US, and the world at large.

While numerous corporations, healthcare providers, local government, hospitals and more, have been victimized and had to pay millions to unlock their databases, confidential files and infrastructure access, today, service companies are increasingly held responsible for taking steps to protect and secure their customers' data and privacy. NAPCO has done so to protect both its dealers and their accounts' privacy and liability exposure.

Located within its NY headquarters, processing millions of StarLink signals, Napco's NOC is triple-reinforced, climate- & power-controlled. And, In case of an emergency, it is also backed for a failover, by a Disaster Recovery NOC in Pennsylvania, for immediate, mirrored emergency switchover. Both Network Operations Centers are UL 864 10th Ed, UL 1610, UL 1635 as well as SOC 2. In this way, unlike other manufacturers, all StarLink signals remain within the US. Thus, StarLink Fire Communications offer a true UL End-to-End solution, starting from a UL 864 Listed StarLink Fire Communicator, going thru its NY HQ's UL 864 NOC to any UL Central Station a dealer choses. Additionally, StarLink Fire Communicators and the Napco NOC won awards for our cyber-security (CyberSecured New Product of Year).
