"Receiving the SAS 70 assessment was like graduating... with honors!"— Matthew Cassar, Co-Founder, Executive Vice President
Ensuring our clients' peace of mind is critical to our success. After all, business email and related information is highly sensitive and all business activities should strictly comply with industry standards. That's why we take a proactive approach to ensuring the security of our customers' mission-critical data.
To guarantee the safest hosting environment possible, we recently improved our data safeguards by successfully completing the SAS 70 Type II audit.
Performed by Deloitte, one of the world's leading professional services firm, this audit goes well beyond the SAS 70 Type I audit. In addition to certifying that we have developed and implemented standard controls to manage our business and the delivery of our service to customers, the SAS Type II audit certifies that these controls are properly designed and rigorously applied at all times.
SAS 70 certification proves than an organization has undergone an in-depth audit of their existing control standards and processes by an independent, unbiased third party. This allows the organization to demonstrate that it has adequate controls and safeguards when hosting or processing data belonging to their customers.
More importantly, these audits allow user organizations to objectively assess their provider's controls and safeguards without having to send their own auditors to audit the service organization.
Service providers are required to implement increasingly strict internal controls to comply with the ever-growing stream of legislation regarding the protection of privacy and corporate accountability.
By choosing a SAS 70 Type II compliant hosting provider, you are assured that the organization has the necessary controls in place to safeguard your sensitive information, and that they are up to date on best business practices.
