Cobo, Asia Pacific’s largest digital asset custodian and blockchain technology provider, announced today that it has successfully attained its System and Organization Controls 2 (SOC2) Type I Report, ahead of its Grand Opening in Singapore on 30th September.

Assurance Through Compliance

The SOC 2 Report is a globally recognised internal control offering that utilizes the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) standards to provide reasonable assurance that Cobo’s service commitments and system requirements were achieved based on the trust services criteria relevant to Security, Availability, and Processing Integrity. This report plays an important role in the oversight of the organization, vendor management programs, internal corporate governance and risk management processes and regulatory oversight.

Having acquired the SOC 2 Type I Report, it sets Cobo as one of the most secure and compliant custodians in the Asia Pacific region.

“With the SOC 2 Type I Report, it reflects Cobo’s commitment to its security and privacy towards our users and the extra measures we take to ensure our users feel safe when handling their assets,” said Changhao Jiang, Co-Founder and CTO of Cobo.

The SOC 2 Type I reports on management’s description of a service organization’s system and the suitability of the design of controls. The processing of the certification for Cobo was carried out by a leading global provider of audit and assurance, consulting, financial advisory, risk advisory, tax & legal, and related services.

“Cobo sees compliance as a necessary component for digital assets to make an impact on the real world economy. As a company that aspires to help blockchain technology achieve mass adoption, we work with global leading RegTech partners and prepare ourselves to be a public company in the future,” said Lily Z. King, COO of Cobo.

The SOC 2 Type I Report demonstrates Cobo’s capacity in exceeding the most rigorous security and confidentiality measures that align with global industry standards and first-rate practices, as set by the AICPA.

Support Independent Community Journalism

Dear Reader,

The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.

We operate independently.

Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.

When you support The Indian Sun, you support:

• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers

We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.

If you value thoughtful reporting that reflects Australia’s diversity, we invite you to contribute. Every donation helps us maintain the quality and consistency of our work.

Please consider making a contribution today.

Thank you for your support.

The Indian Sun Team
