Today’s employee engagement programs are being powered by technology that electronically processes transactions and distributes funds to charities and nonprofits around the globe. Employees must have trust and confidence that their personal data is safeguarded and that their donations will securely and accurately go to intended recipient charities. And companies must have certainty that their software solution will securely integrate into their HR, IT and payroll systems.
“Our most recent SSAE 18 report serves as a continued endorsement of our market leadership in data security, financial processes and controls for employee engagement software.
“Employees increasingly expect companies to deliver an experience that gives them a sense of meaning and purpose in their work and access to ‘consumer grade’ technology tools to do so,” says Bryan de Lottinville, Founder and CEO of Benevity. “Delivering that software and those outcomes in a manner that provides assurance to our enterprise clients is of paramount importance to us. Our most recent SSAE 18 report serves as a continued endorsement of our market leadership in data security, financial processes and controls for employee engagement software. Meeting these robust standards allows us to provide assurance of second-to-none processes and controls to the world’s most iconic companies, in a technological climate where vigilance is vital.”

SSAE 18 was designated by the Auditing Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants as an authoritative reporting standard for service organizations in the U.S. in May 2017, superseding SSAE 16, which was first introduced in June 2011. By aligning with the international audit standard ISAE No. 3402, SSAE 18 provides confidence in the security of companies operating globally.
