The mission of Tik Tok's Global Security Organization is to build and earn trust by reducing risk and securing our businesses and products. Also known as "GSO", this team is the foundation of our efforts to keep Tik Tok safe, secure, and operating at scale for over 1 billion people around the world. We work to ensure that the Tik Tok platform is safe and secure, that our users' experience and their data remains safe from external or internal threats, and that we comply with global regulations wherever Tik Tok operates.

Trust is one of Tik Tok's biggest initiatives, and security is integral to our success. In whatever ways users interact with us — whether they're watching videos on their For You page, interacting with a Live video, or buying products on Tik Tok Shop — GSO protects their data and privacy, so they can have a secure and trustworthy experience.

The GSO provides industry-leading security and privacy services to company, guided by four principles: trust and transparency, business enablement, risk-informed decision-making, and proactive risk reduction. We strive to build sustainable, world-class security capabilities.

The Security Solutions & Delivery (SSD) team turns security requirements into practical, auditable outcomes that help the business move faster and reduce risk. We support business revenue through Customer Assurance, sustain critical third-party integrations through Partner Compliance, translate evolving regulatory requirements into action through Regulatory Intelligence, and directly take ownership of fixing systemic identified risks through Security Remediation. In addition, Our Organizational Excellence pillar supports the broader Global Security Organization with the finance, coordination, and the operational foundations it needs to run effectively.

The impact of this work is clear and immediate: faster deals, stronger partner continuity, addressing high priorities, and greater trust with customers and partners.
