SAN ANTONIO, TX (January 15, 2013) – CityNAP, a San Antonio-based data center and premier provider of local and national tandem services to carriers across the United States, today announced that it has successfully completed a third-party audit resulting in a SSAE16 SOC 2 Type II attestation report being issued. This signifies that CityNAP's security procedures and operational controls have been reviewed by an independent certified public accounting firm. Furthermore, it ensures that these controls have been sufficiently designed and tested.
CityNAP CEO Don Douglas is excited about the milestone. "As we focus on the needs of existing and future clients, our commitment to compliance with the strictest control standards and industry best practices ensures that CityNAP will continue to deliver robust and secure services," he said.
The Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements No. 16 (SSAE 16) is a standard created by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). A SOC 2 Type II audit indicates that an organization's control objectives and activities have been reviewed and examined by the auditing firm which also tests those controls to ensure they operate effectively. Successful conclusion of the examination was issued in a formal report covering CityNAP's security, availability, integrity and confidentiality.
CityNAP helps customers craft solutions to accommodate growth, maintain flexibility and adhere to strict compliance regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, PCI and Graham-Leach-Bliley. Completion of the SOC 2 Type II audit is confirmation of that dedication.
