"When you have a company that you know is going to be there for you when you need them, then that's the company you need to partner with. That's what DataComm does for us, and they've always kept us a step ahead of other community banks."

“Just wanted to thank you for the great job on the construction and installation of our network. I gotta tell you – the (CORE vendor) guys were impressed. They made specific comments on the way everything was labeled and organized. I’m sure it saved them a lot of time and eliminated the guess-work when doing their setup. They also commented on the strength of the firewall and said that no other denovo they’ve worked with was setup as securely and as well organized as we were.

American Momentum Bank, Tampa, FL
"DataComm’s proposal for the required technology products and services demonstrates that the company has carefully considered all of the bank’s need in its analysis and recommendation. The proposal also exceeds the proposed offering from the other vendors evaluated in terms of reliability, scalability, and redundancy. Additionally, DataComm has proven its commitment to the bank’s success by providing detailed information at a moment’s notice as it has been requested during the analysis process."

AICPA Compliance
AICPA Compliance: AT101 (SOC II Type II)
To ensure operational integrity and maintain necessary regulatory compliance as a service organization for our customers, DataComm has successfully completed the comprehensive SOC II Type II internal control audit.
By maintaining the SOC II Type II certification, our goal, as a service provider, is to deliver the assurance to our customers and prospects that we meet or exceed an extensive list of controls in both our business and technical operations. The SOC II Type II certification reduces the need for our customers to build certain controls into their IT infrastructure in order to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley 404 (SOX) and Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).
As part of the audit process, DataComm’s systems and processes undergo extensive evaluation and testing, including: security monitoring, change management, system development life cycles, backup controls, physical and environmental safeguards, logical as well as physical access and other criteria.
Given the substantial costs associated with non-compliance with SOX and GLBA, the SOC II Type II audit compliance should be part of every organization’s checklist when evaluating third party service providers. As a fast-growing company we are proud to be able to provide our customers the assurance that comes from this auditing process. At DataComm, we remain committed to maintaining the highest compliance standards set for the industry.
