SSAE-18 compliance

A data center that meets control standards with SSAE-18 compliance.

What is SSAE-18 compliance?

The Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements No. 18 (SSAE-18) establishes the standards for how we handle, operate, and control data related to customers and financial reporting. It is a revision of SSAE-16.

There are various frameworks under SSAE-18 called Service Organization Controls (SOC)s. We undergo both SOC 1 and SOC 2 assessments and can provide the resulting compliance reports to clients upon request.
