Amsterdam, Enschede and Zwolle data centers all meet international security
standard
ENSCHEDE, NETHERLANDS March 3, 2009 Equinix Inc. (Nasdaq: EQIX), a
provider of global data center services, has announced that its International
Business Exchange ™ (IBX®) data center in Amsterdam (AM1) and smaller data
center in Zwolle (ZW1) have both been awarded ISO 27001 certification for their
compliance with The International Organization for Standardizations code of
practice for information security management systems. Equinixs third Dutch data
center, located in Enschede (EN1), has achieved certification for the second
time. All of Equinixs operations in the Netherlands now comply with the
internationally recognized security standard.
To effectively protect and connect organizations valuable information assets,
it is vital that data center providers adhere to the strictest procedures
governing security, resilience and business continuity. ISO 27001 certification,
together with Equinixs market leading service level agreements (SLAs), provides
Equinix customers with added reassurance about the resilience of their
outsourced operations.
ISO 27001 certification is only awarded to companies whose business processes
conform to strict international information security standards. In order to
achieve compliance, all aspects of Equinix's Dutch operations were stringently
audited, including operating resources, personnel, physical security,
communications and operations procedures, access management, system and software
development, maintenance, business continuity planning and legal compliance.
Achieving ISO 27001certification in The Netherlands is the latest in a long
line of initiatives to introduce best practice procedures across all aspects of
Equinixs global operations, said Kevin Martin, vice-president customer
operations & quality at Equinix Europe. ISO 27001compliance clearly
demonstrates our ability to support our customers mission-critical operations
and is a tribute to the entire Dutch team, who worked hard to achieve
certification across the three data centers.
