Security has never been more essential for enterprise software, especially for platforms powering critical workflows and sensitive data automation. Today, we’re proud to announce that Peakflo has achieved CASA Tier 2 certification, a rigorous, independent security validation built on industry-recognized standards. This milestone reinforces our ongoing commitment to secure, compliant, and enterprise-grade workflow automation.
What makes this achievement significant is not just the badge, but that an authorized third-party security lab validated our platform against stringent application security requirements, giving customers verification they can confidently rely on. This type of independent endorsement matters significantly more than simple self-attestation, especially for security and procurement teams conducting detailed vendor assessments.
What is CASA Tier 2 Certification?
The Cloud Application Security Assessment (CASA) framework was developed by the App Defense Alliance (a collaboration including Google, Microsoft, and Meta) and leverages the well-respected OWASP Application Security Verification Standard (ASVS) as its technical foundation. CASA Tier 2 is structured to assess a platform’s security controls across a broad set of categories such as authentication, access control, data protection, API security, cryptography, and threat modeling.
Achieving Tier 2 certification requires third-party lab testing by an authorized assessor, validating that application security controls meet or exceed industry security practices, not just developer claims. This certification verifies technical security, reinforces protection of sensitive data, and provides documented proof for enterprise risk reviews and audits.

What Does CASA Tier 2 Certification Mean for Peakflo Products?
Earning this certification goes beyond recognition; it delivers tangible value across our customers, partners, and the broader Peakflo ecosystem:
- Continued access to restricted Google APIs: Several Google services, including Gmail and Calendar, require elevated security assurances from applications that access sensitive scopes. CASA Tier 2 certification validates that Peakflo meets these requirements, ensuring uninterrupted and compliant API access.
- Greater trust for enterprise buyers: Enterprises, regulated businesses, and public-sector organizations increasingly expect independent security validation before approving software vendors. This certification provides third-party assurance that Peakflo’s security practices meet stringent standards.
- Stronger alignment with global compliance frameworks: By adhering to CASA’s security framework, Peakflo strengthens its alignment with regulations and standards such as GDPR, ISO, and other data-protection-focused compliance regimes.
- Clear differentiation in procurement and RFPs: In competitive procurement cycles, CASA Tier 2 certification enables Peakflo to stand out as a verified, security-first solution, reducing friction during vendor risk and IT reviews.
- Platform stability and long-term reliability: Certification reduces the risk of unexpected API restrictions or security-driven re-engineering, helping ensure long-term platform continuity and a stable experience for customers.
How This Benefits Enterprise Customers?
With Peakflo’s CASA Tier 2 certification, customers, especially those with stringent IT requirements, can now move forward with greater confidence:
- Enhanced Data Protection: Verifying controls around encryption, authentication, session management, and API security ensures that workflows handling sensitive data follow robust security practices.
- Security-First Procurement: RFP evaluations and vendor risk reviews now have independent certification evidence, making technical due diligence simpler and more transparent.
- Strong Trust Signals: The CASA Tier 2 badge and documented assessment process give stakeholders, from CIOs to compliance officers, visibility into Peakflo’s security posture.
