Follow on Google News | Six Degrees Group deploys IL2 services for over 30 Local AuthoritiesBy: Six Degrees Group The complex IL2 certification is regarded throughout the IT industry as a benchmark for security best practice. Rather than being a general grading that providers can reach, solutions must be assessed on an individual project basis. The certification for the local authority contracts therefore encompass the specific team, systems of management, processes and mechanisms at 6DG that are used to keep these particular customers’ A fundamental part of the IL2 solution delivered by 6DG is its proprietary Tier 4 data centre facilities, which offer maximum security and award winning technologies. Utilising its geographically diverse data centres in Birmingham and Central London, to house the specifically hardened cloud-hosting infrastructure, 6DG offers customers the resilience of a dual site solution. The company controls and owns these facilities from gate-to-rack giving public sector bodies the peace of mind that a UK-based business is managing data sovereignty and data security from end-to-end. Campbell Williams, group strategy and marketing director, Six Degrees Group said: “Our ability to demonstrate gate to rack control means this particular contract, and new IL2 and future IL3 customers, can know who is handling their data, and crucially when and where this is happening. Our team of experts are also security cleared for this deal so we have had to prove our suitability and expertise at every level. All of our HMG certified secure platforms can be sourced via G-Cloud.” For further information please visit www.6dg.co.uk ENDS About Six Degrees Group Six Degrees Group is a privately owned managed data services provider serving UK mid-market and corporate customers.
