03.Security & Risk

Public documentation of MiTek Inc.'s cybersecurity program is limited to a standard privacy notice outlining employee and applicant data handling procedures ^[10]. The provided sources do not disclose specific security certifications, audit reports, or incident response frameworks for the construction technology division. A separate entity, Mitek Systems, Inc., holds SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certifications for its identity verification services, but this does not apply to MiTek Inc. ^[11]. Consequently, there is insufficient public data to fully assess the vendor's security controls.

Deterministic outside-in checks run directly against the vendor's domain - not inferred from press or marketing pages.
