Digital Realty provides the SOC 2 report for the Security and Availability Principles for its owned and managed U.S. properties, and internationally as required.
The SOC 2 controls are based on a standard set of security criteria developed and issued by the AICPA in the Trust Services Principles and Criteria. The term "Trust Services" is defined as a set of professional attestation and advisory services based on a core set of principles and criteria addressing the risks and opportunities of IT-enabled systems and privacy programs.
Digital Realty demonstrates compliance with the Trust Services Principles of Security and Availability, by conducting a SOC 2 examination. The Security Principle states that the system is protected against unauthorized access (both physical and logical) while the Availability Principle demonstrates that the system is available for operation and use as committed to or agreed upon.
