SAN ANGELO, Texas, Sept. 29, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- MSP
Verify Program offers vendor agnostic certification for Cloud and
Managed Services Practitioners Worldwide; Provides Quality
Assurance, and Stamp of Reliability for Current, Potential
Customers
CalTech today announced that it has successfully completed the
MSPAlliance's MSP Verify Program (MSPCV) certification and SOC 2
Type X. The MSPCV is based on the 10 control objectives of the
Unified Certification Standard for Cloud & MSPs (UCS) and is
the oldest certification program for cloud computing and managed
services providers. CalTech's SOC 2 Type 2 audit was based on the
UCS as well as the Trust Services Criteria for Security and the
Additional Criteria for Availability and Confidentiality (TSP
section 100A – 2017).
The MSPCV was the first of its kind created specifically for the
managed services and cloud industry. Every certification comes with
a written report with the entire process documented, validated and
signed by a 3rd party accounting firm. The MSPCV has been reviewed
by governmental agencies and regulatory bodies across the globe and
is used and accepted in 5 continents around the world.
"The MSPCV certification is a rigorous certification process
that benchmarks and verifies the quality of the company providing
cloud and/or managed services," said Charles Weaver, MSPAlliance CEO. "We are very
proud to have CalTech as a member of this elite community of cloud
and MSPs."
MSP Verify Program
The UCS consists of 10 control objectives and underlying
controls that constitute crucial building blocks of a successful
managed services (and cloud computing) practice. Once the
provider's organization has completed all MSPCV documentation on
all applicable control objectives (with the assistance of
MSPAlliance's readiness assessments, gap analysis, helpful
templates and consulting) the results are then examined by an
independent third-party accounting firm for verification and
signing of a public facing report.
As with any other substantive certification of this type, the
MSPCV certification must be renewed annually. The MSPCV was the
first certification created specifically for the managed services
and cloud industry. The MSPCV has been reviewed by governmental
agencies and regulatory bodies across the globe and is used and
accepted in 5 continents around the world.
Customers who select a company that is part of the MSPCV can
also rest assured that their IT solution provider has met and
exceeded the following standards dealing with:
Objective 1: Governance,
Objective 2: Policies and Procedures,
Objective 3: Confidentiality and Privacy,
Objective 4: Change Management,
Objective 5: Service Operations Management,
Objective 6: Information Security,
Objective 7: Data Management,
Objective 8: Physical Security,
Objective 9: Billing and Reporting, and
Objective 10: Corporate Health.
The MSPCV certification report is signed by a third-party
accounting firm.
"Delivering Exceptional IT Services is a core part of our
mission as a company. Being certified through this program
exemplifies our team's dedication to our customers," said
Michael Adams, CalTech COO.
