Event Store has achieved two major security standards

Event Store Ltd, creators of EventStoreDB the foundational database for the event-driven enterprise, is pleased to announce two major achievements in security accreditation. Event Store Cloud is now an ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certified service, as verified by independent auditors A-LIGN. Event Store Cloud is now also SOC 2 Type 1 compliant, making Event Store a safe, secure company for your data.

“Event Store Cloud's customers demand digital trust. Passing these rigorous third-party audits is a demonstration of how seriously we take not only our own security but that of our customers,” said Andrés Méndez-Barco, the Company’s Chief Information Security Officer. 

Méndez-Barco and his team have been working diligently for the past year on the two certifications.

“We’re thrilled about the team’s work on these certifications. EventStoreDB has been running globally in critical, high-security environments for years so we knew from the start how important it was going to be for Event Store Cloud to achieve a more rigorous standard of security. With these certifications companies with security-sensitive workloads can confidently start their transition to Event Store Cloud with even greater confidence” says Dave Remy, Event Store CEO.
