Samsara that guides everything from hardware design to the cloud platform. “We work with some of the world’s largest organizations and government agencies, so our systems are built to meet strict, up-to-date secu- rity standards,” Caldern said. “We’re audited for SOC 2 compliance and maintain ISO 27001 and ISO 27701 cer- tifications for information security and privacy.” He noted that Samsara’s hardware includes tamper
