Setting the standard
Committing to excellence

Security management

All of our data centres have been awarded the ISO27001:2005 standard for security management. It specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, reviewing, maintaining and improving a documented Information Security Management System within the context of an organisation's overall business risks. Ultimately, the standard ensures best practice for security controls to protect information assets.

Quality management

All of our data centres have achieved the ISO 9001:2008 standard for business quality management. It is applied to the processes that create and control the products and services that we supply, and prescribes systematic control of activities to ensure that the needs and expectations of customers are met. The standard demonstrates the existence of an effective quality management system that satisfies the rigours of an independent, external audit. 

Environmental management

TelecityGroup has achieved certification to ISO 14001, the environmental management system standard. ISO 14001 is an internationally-recognised accreditation for organisations that demonstrate superior environmental management. The certificate highlights TelecityGroup’s ongoing commitment to both maximise the energy efficiency of its existing data centre estate and develop innovative new facilities.  

Certification expected 2012.

Payment card security

In 2006, we were the first UK data centre provider to achieve Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) accreditation, the standard developed by Visa and MasterCard.  This standard has also now been applied to our data centres in Amsterdam. As a result, all of our customers storing credit card details, customer information and transactional data have the guarantee we comply with the 12-step security standard outlined by the leading card issuers.

Certification expected 2012.
