Biscom Completes SSAE 16 Type II Audit

Biscom, Inc., the leading provider of enterprise hosted fax services and secure document delivery solutions, today announced the successful completion of its SSAE 16 Type II audit. The audit was conducted by an independent accounting firm who performed an extensive review and testing of Biscom's infrastructure and internal controls within the Hosted Fax Service.

"We believe that having SSAE 16 certification is essential for those companies who manage mission-critical data on behalf of clients in today's environment."

For the SSAE 16 Type II certification, Biscom was audited extensively in the following key areas:

• Security
