As media and entertainment companies navigate the complexities of video cloud services, the stakes around data security, operational integrity, and vendor governance have never been higher. At Backlight, we understand that trust is the foundation of every strong partnership.
Today, we are proud to announce a significant milestone in our commitment to operational excellence and security: Wildmoka, our powerful live clipping and short-form content creation platform, has successfully completed its SOC 2 Type 1 examination.
This achievement is more than just a certificate; it is a formal, third-party validation that the processes and controls we have built into Wildmoka meet the highest standards for protecting customer data.
Why this matters
For technology leaders in media, mitigating vendor risk and ensuring compliance are paramount. When choosing a video cloud provider, you need to know whether that platform is built with the discipline and structure required to protect your valuable content and operational data.
The SOC 2 Type 1 report, issued by an independent CPA firm, addresses these concerns head-on. The report demonstrates that Wildmoka has implemented well-designed security controls to protect its systems and data from unauthorized access, use, or modification, as evaluated at a specific point in time under the AICPA Security Trust Services Criteria.
In practical terms, Wildmoka now has a proven record of:
- Risk reduction: We have proven that we have the necessary governance, monitoring, and infrastructure controls in place to manage security risks proactively, significantly reducing the vendor risk associated with integrating Wildmoka into your production workflow.
- Operational assurance: The certification validates the rigor of our internal operations—from how we handle code deployment and access control to how we manage system maintenance—ensuring the reliability and integrity you need for mission-critical live and short-form video operations.
- Future-proof compliance: By establishing this strong security foundation, we are reinforcing Backlight’s unified security posture across all product lines, paving the way for continuous adherence to global security frameworks that serve our enterprise customers.
Transparency in action: Introducing the Wildmoka Trust Center
We believe that true trust deserves to be visible.
In conjunction with achieving SOC 2 Type 1, we are thrilled to announce the launch of the Wildmoka Trust Center. This new resource provides our customers and partners with a transparent view of the foundational security and operational controls that safeguard their data and systems within Wildmoka.
The Trust Center allows your security and compliance teams to explore and verify our security architecture and processes, reinforcing your confidence in our platform as your trusted partner for video cloud services.
Our ongoing commitment
Achieving SOC 2 Type 1 is a significant milestone, but it is not the finish line. It is a clear marker of our current excellence and a springboard for our future. SOC 2 Type 2, which certifies the security processes over a period of time instead of at one point in time for Type 1, is expected for 2026.
We view security and compliance as an ongoing partnership with our customers. This achievement is a testament to the dedication of the entire Wildmoka and Backlight team, and it solidifies our promise to continue investing in the most robust security measures available.
We are committed to delivering the performance, reliability, and peace of mind you expect from a leader in media and entertainment cloud technology.
