Security & Compliance » Certifications
If you still have your data and applications on premise, are you sure that you have all needed certifications, and that they are all kept up to date? With the Calitech™ cloud, you don’t have to worry about this, because we will have all necessary certifications at your disposal. Following is a list of certifications you will enjoy if you trust your data to the Calitech™ cloud:
SOC 1 and SOC 2 (Service Organization Controls)
Service Organization Controls certifications give you a baseline for the physical and logical access, data security and business continuity of your data. SOC-1 reports are audited reports on controls. Type I reports the existence of control policies and procedures and Type II verifies that these procedures are in practice by testing their operation effectiveness for a period of time. SOC-2 reports on various organizational controls related to security, availability, confidentiality or privacy. Make sure you know which type of certification your cloud computing provider has.
HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability)
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability refers to a US federal regulatin that ensures privacy of healthcare data by providing privacy standards to protect patients’ medical records and other health information. A data center with HIPAA certification is vital if you will have healthcare records in the cloud.
