Using outsource computer room facilities for data center certifications

Government regulations continue to proliferate.  With the US government more directly involved in many areas of the “private” sector, data center compliance becomes a requirement in more businesses.

Enterprise data centers and outsource data centers are already subject to compliance from government entities like the FDA and FDIC.  Regulations such as FISMA, HIPAA, and Sarbanes Oxley contain language about data centers.  Many private organizations require their vendors and customers to maintain SAS-70 type II data center compliance.

Will your company’s data center compliance be affected by our changing economy?  Will these new compliance requirements require more staff, budget and resources?

More companies are using outsource computer room facilities to solve the compliance problem.  Outsource data center facilities that focus on compliance can help you keep the costs of compliance under control.

Can your outsource data center provider come to the table with you when the auditors visit?  Lifeline Data Centers can help you solve your data center certification and compliance problems.
