Popular hardware wallet company Ledger recently announced that they had passed a notable security evaluation, known as SOC 2 Type 1. This certification came following a significant data breach the company suffered in June. Ledger did not, however, decide to conduct its security audit because of the breach, according to comments from a Ledger representative.
"Ledger is always seeking to raise the security standards and has been working on getting the attestation prior to the data breach," the representative told Cointelegraph.
