Executive Summary

AI-generated analysis for Gong

Gong (gong.io) is a well-established revenue intelligence SaaS platform with an 11-year web presence, clean threat intelligence across 94 security engines, and a published subprocessor list of nine reputable providers showing no sanctions or safety flags.

Area Requiring Attention

The primary concern driving the Tier 3 rating is a high-severity adverse media match that, upon close review, appears to be a false positive — the flagged article concerns Falun Gong, a distinct religious movement with no connection to the vendor Gong.io. Secondary considerations include vendor-attested compliance certifications that have not been independently verified through public registries, and HTTP security header deficiencies reflected in a C- web security grade. No sanctions exposure, active enforcement actions, malware flags, or infrastructure vulnerabilities were identified.

Independence Statement

All evidence in this report was sourced independently through external data providers and public registries without vendor participation or disclosure.

Steps to address findings for Gong

  1. 1

    Prioritize manual sanctions screening: with automated watchlist screening unavailable, run Gong.io and its parent entity (Gong.io Ltd., Israel) through OFAC's SDN List search tool (https://sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/) and the EU Consolidated Sanctions List before finalizing onboarding.

  2. 2

    Obtain the SOC 2 Type II report: email Gong's security team at office.ciso@gong.io to request the most recent Type II audit report. Confirm the report period covers the last 12 months and review the auditor's opinion and any noted exceptions before granting access to medium-sensitivity data.

  3. 3

    Verify ISO 27001 certification independently: ask Gong for their ISO 27001 certificate issued by their certification body and confirm the certificate number against the issuing registrar's online lookup. The trust page context references ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27017 — both should be confirmed.

  4. 4

    Address HTTP security header gaps in vendor discussions: raise the C- Observatory grade with Gong's security team and request written confirmation that HSTS, CSP, and X-Frame-Options are enforced within their application infrastructure. Request their remediation timeline if headers are not yet applied at the apex domain.

  5. 5

    Review the subprocessor list for data residency alignment: Gong's published subprocessor page (https://gong.io/sub-processors) lists nine processors including Gong.io Ltd. in Israel and multiple US/EU entities. Confirm that data routing and residency commitments align with your organization's regulatory requirements, particularly for GDPR Article 46 transfer mechanisms.

Data Coverage Notes

Some data sources may have had limited availability during this assessment. This does not reflect negatively on the vendor.

  • Sanctions and watchlist screening was unavailable during this investigation due to a data source outage. Manual sanctions screening against OFAC, EU, and UN consolidated lists is recommended before onboarding.
  • Domain registration (WHOIS/RDAP) data could not be retrieved for gong.io — the .io ccTLD registry returned a not-found response, which is a known limitation of RDAP coverage for certain country-code TLDs rather than an indicator of concern.
  • The LEI match returned by the business registration source (ÍVF 17.07.2024, jurisdiction: Faroe Islands) does not correspond to Gong.io the software vendor — this is a name-match false positive on an unrelated Faroese entity, and the 'nameMatchVerified: false' flag in the evidence confirms it should not be attributed to this vendor.
  • External cyber risk scoring was not available for this assessment, limiting the ability to benchmark Gong's overall security posture against industry peers.
  • Safe Browsing check data for Amazon Web Services and several other subprocessors returned null results rather than confirmed clean status; this reflects a data coverage gap rather than a positive threat signal.

Is Gong on the OFAC sanctions list?+
Gong returned no matches in ThirdProof's OFAC SDN, EU Consolidated, and UN sanctions screening as of March 2026.

Can I get an auto-filled security questionnaire for Gong?+
Yes. Every ThirdProof investigation of Gong produces two deliverables: an audit-ready risk report and a 133-question security questionnaire pre-filled with evidence from 27 independent sources. The questionnaire is mapped to SIG, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS and 9 other frameworks — answered without sending Gong a single email or waiting for a vendor response.
Is Gong safe to use as a vendor?+
Gong is a sales vendor that handles organizational data. Safety depends on their current security posture, certification status, and how they handle your specific data. ThirdProof automates this evaluation across 27 intelligence sources — sanctions databases (OFAC, EU, UN), business registration verification, adverse media scanning, and cyber risk assessment — producing a deterministic risk tier with confidence score plus an auto-filled security questionnaire. Run a free investigation to see Gong's full risk profile.
Does Gong have SOC 2 certification?+
Yes — Gong holds SOC 2 + 3 other certs. Rated Moderate Risk — 4 cert(s) unverified. See all 3 findings →
Has Gong had any data breaches?+
Data breach history is an important signal for any vendor, particularly sales platforms like Gong that handle organizational data. ThirdProof's adverse media analysis searches multiple news APIs and public records for data breaches, security incidents, lawsuits, regulatory enforcement actions, and financial distress signals. Each finding is linked to its original source with severity classification.
Is Gong on any sanctions lists?+
Sanctions screening is standard due diligence for sales vendors. ThirdProof screens Gong against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives. If Gong or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers automatic escalation to the highest risk tier.
How do I assess Gong for vendor risk?+
Assessing Gong as a sales vendor involves verifying SOC 2 Type II and applicable industry standards compliance, reviewing their subprocessor chain, and checking sanctions exposure. ThirdProof automates this across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — no questionnaires or vendor participation required. Your first 5 investigations are free.
How long does a ThirdProof assessment take?+
A ThirdProof assessment completes in an average of 7 minutes. 27 intelligence sources are queried in parallel — sanctions databases, business registries, threat intelligence feeds, certificate transparency logs, and more. The result is a deterministic risk tier with confidence score and audit-ready PDF report.
Is ThirdProof free?+
ThirdProof offers 5 free vendor assessments with no credit card required. Each assessment includes the full report — risk tier, confidence score, individual findings, executive summary, and PDF export. Paid plans start at $399/month for teams that need ongoing vendor monitoring.
Can I use a ThirdProof report as SOC 2 audit evidence?+
Yes. ThirdProof reports are designed to satisfy SOC 2 CC9.2 (vendor risk management) requirements. Each report includes SHA-256 integrity verification, methodology disclosure, source attribution for every finding, and AI content labeling. Auditors can independently verify the report's authenticity and trace each finding to its original source.
How is ThirdProof different from a security questionnaire?+
Security questionnaires require vendor participation, take weeks, and produce self-reported answers. ThirdProof queries 27 independent intelligence sources — no vendor involvement needed. Risk tiers are assigned by a deterministic rules engine (not AI opinion), and every finding links to its original source. You get an audit-ready report in an average of 7 minutes instead of waiting weeks for a questionnaire response.

Gong is in your vendor stack. Can you prove you assessed them?

SOC 2 CC9.2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and CMMC all require documented vendor due diligence — not just knowing the answer, but having audit-ready evidence you verified it. Most compliance teams can't produce that documentation on demand.

ThirdProof investigates Gong across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — sanctions screening, cyber posture, SOC 2 verification, FedRAMP status, and more. Every investigation produces two deliverables: an audit-ready risk report and an auto-filled security questionnaire your prospects and auditors expect to see.
