GAIA-X
Leaseweb has been an active member of GAIA-X since 2021 and is committed to developing and launching the new cloud infrastructures based on the Gaia-X principles. These principles take into account European data protection requirements, transparency and compatibility.
ISO 27001
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 27001:2013 is the international security standard used to benchmark the protection of sensitive data. Our certification process was carried out by EY CertifyPoint and encompassed organizational security policies, personnel security, physical and environmental security, systems and network security, and business continuity management.
PCI DSS
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) ensures the secure handling of sensitive information and is intended to help organizations proactively protect customer account data. Our certification process was carried out by Comsec Consulting. As Leaseweb does not monitor or has access to customer data, applicability of the PCI/DSS certification, together with our data center partners, is restricted to physical security access to customer equipment through a combination of management systems and physical access safeguards and procedures. The covered aspects of the Leaseweb PCI DSS certification are: 12.1, 12.2, 12.4 to 12.10. More information.
The following Leaseweb data centers are PCI DSS certified for requirement 9 and 12:
• AMS-01
• FRA-01
• WDC-02
• SIN-01
• LON-01

SOC 1
Service Organization Controls (SOC) reports provide an examination of a description produced by us of the system(s) we operate on behalf of our clients that are relevant to their internal control processes. This audit process was carried out by EY. There are two types of reports: type I and type II, where type II adds an extended assertion and auditor’s opinion on the operating effectiveness of your controls.
HIPAA
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act sets out standards for security controls to protect health information stored or processed online. Although there is no specific HIPAA certification for service providers like Leaseweb, EY has issued us with a third party statement that recognizes our platform as being compliant with HIPAA requirements that relate to our building blocks for logical and physical security, operational resilience, incident management, service deployment and change management. This enables customers to leverage our platform as part of their overall HIPAA compliance. More information.
NEN 7510
NEN 7510 is the standard developed by the Nederlands Normalisatie Institute for information security in the health sector. Although there is no specific NEN 7510 certification for service providers like Leaseweb, we have received a third party statement by EY for compliance with the NEN 7510 requirements in connection to our building blocks for logical and physical security, operational resilience, incident management, service deployment and change management. This enables customers to leverage our platform as part of their overall NEN 7510 compliance. More information.
CISPE
As part of our strong commitment to GDPR compliance we have registered our products with the Cloud Infrastructure Service Providers in Europe association (CISPE). CISPE have created a code of conduct for Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) providers such as Leaseweb to guide and verify GDPR compliance.
Data Privacy Framework (‘DPF’)
