Data center compliance and data center certifications at Lifeline Data Centers

Companies that are considering Lifeline Data Centers for their outsource data center needs often ask about our expertise with data center compliance. We are also asked about data our center certifications.

Rich Banta, co-owner of Lifeline Data Centers, holds the following certifications, which are from ISACA, the Information Systems Audit and Control Association.

CISA – Certified Information Systems Auditor. The CISA certification is known worldwide as the recognized achievement for those who control, monitor and assess an organization’s information technology and business systems.

CRISC – Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control. CRISC (pronounced “see-risk”) is designed for IT professionals who have hands-on experience with risk identification, assessment and evaluation; risk response; risk monitoring; IS control design and implementation; and IS control monitoring and maintenance.
