TELEHOUSE America is proud to announce that its New York and Los Angeles data centers are now SSAE 16 Type 1 compliant, having successfully completed the rigorous independent assessments required of the SSAE 16 standard. The four TELEHOUSE facilities have voluntarily completed a stringent audit of its internal business processes and IT controls, including physical security, environmental security, logical security, and network security.
Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE) No. 16 is an internationally recognized third party assurance audit designed for service organizations. Unlike SAS 70, SSAE-16 is an “attest” standard, falling under the attestation framework, rather than the “auditing” framework of the SAS 70 standard. Service auditors first must obtain management’s written assertion and then express an opinion on the fair presentation of each facility’s system and the suitability of its design for the period covered by the report.
