The recently opened Madrid data center will be included in the next report. The Type II report was completed by PwC, one of the world's leading risk insurance consultants, following a six-month model audit across seven critical risk and security control areas. Interoute's controls verification report provides global customers with the assurance that their IT service management needs and quality are supported by their business-critical outsourced technology standards.   

The PwC verification report highlights the effectiveness of Interoute's managed outsourced risk and security operations and applies to Interoute's virtual hosting infrastructure, including the Interoute Virtual Data Centre (VDC). Companies that entrust their data to external service providers demand the highest levels of security and independent compliance assurance. The report provides companies with the necessary confidence that their critical business systems and data are protected by Interoute.     

The following controls have been tested and certified: security and risk governance, logical and physical environment security, and availability management, as well as configuration change and continuity. The combined ISAE 3402 and SSAE assurance report demonstrates that the company has the correct processes and controls in place to ensure the high demands of governance and accreditations across all its data centers. Interoute's strategic approach to delivering this level of quality and security is integrated with proven best practice standards (ISO 20000, ISO 27001, and PCI DSS) and guarantees the integrity of its customers' outsourced business-critical applications. These quality controls are integrated throughout the company's product portfolio and operational processes.
