FiberCloud Completes SAS 70 Type II Audit

Audit results verify the quality and security of its network design and operating effectiveness.

FiberCloud, Inc., an IP solution company, recently announced that it has received SAS 70 Type II audit results verifying the quality and security of its network design and operating effectiveness. The audit began in 2010 and was conducted by Frost, PLCC Certified Public Accountants, an impartial accounting firm that specializes in Sarbanes-Oxley compliance and regulations. All five data centers located of the company in Seattle, Everett and Bellingham successfully passed the audit.

The company avers that it received the Type II authorization, which involved over 6 months of compliance tests on its security standards and operating effectiveness. The company has supported government security regulation compliance including SAS 70 since its inception since 2001, but this is the first time the company has applied for and received the SAS 70 Certification.

It says that the company staff performs regular maintenance and maintains strict operating and security standards for all of its data centers to ensure compliance. It did not make any major modifications to its data centers in order to pass the audit, but drew on already secure infrastructure and standard procedures to meet the audit requirements.

"This certificate will make it easy for our customers to ensure regulatory compliance and really validates the rock solid infrastructure and operating procedures that we have worked so hard to maintain," said Gerald Sherrill, Director of Operations and Infrastructure for FiberCloud, Inc. "In the past, FiberCloud has assisted customers with regulatory compliance, including SOX, PCI, and HIPAA. FiberCloud will make its authorization available by request to customers who
require proof of SAS 70 compliance."
