National Data Center Service Provider, CoreLink Data Centers, Completes SSAE 16 Audits at Chicago, Seattle, Las Vegas and Phoenix Facilities

MT. PROSPECT, Ill., Feb. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- National data center service provider, CoreLink Data Centers, LLC (http://www.corelink.com/) today announced the completion of an SSAE 16 audit at its colocation facilities. The Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE) No. 16 addresses a service organization's, such as a data center, internal controls. Issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accounts (AICPA), it is considered the authoritative guidance standard for service organizations

CoreLink had previously completed the SAS70 Type II audit and updated its standing by engaging in these more rigorous and in-depth audits conducted by an internationally recognized auditing firm.  CoreLink's Chicago, Las Vegas, Phoenix, and Seattle facilities strictly follow internal controls the company developed for data center management services.

"Our customers place great trust in CoreLink's ability to deliver safe and secure data center operations," said Tom Stimmel, CoreLink's Director of Operations. "Our controls demonstrate CoreLink's commitment to providing our customers, which include small-, medium- and large-enterprise companies across a wide range of industries, with high quality, process-oriented, and transparent data center services."

"The completion of our SSAE 16 audit provides our customers with even greater assurance of CoreLink's commitment to provide quality service backed by standards developed specifically for third party service organizations like ours," Stimmel said. "Not only can CoreLink's data centers assure customers that we're providing them with the services they value, but they also enjoy the peace of mind and confidence knowing our controls are rigorously detailed and followed."

CoreLink's SSAE 16 audit included CoreLink's full description of systems at its data centers, including technical design and strictly implemented operational and safety controls.  The auditor has backed this SSAE16 document with a corresponding opinion letter, effectively agreeing with, and providing its stamp of approval for, the controls that CoreLink developed and strictly follows.

The audit report, produced after a rigorous independent examination of CoreLink's internal controls and processes, demonstrates the reliability, security and operational excellence of CoreLink's data center technology for its customers. CoreLink's SSAE 16 report scope focuses on procedures performed by CoreLink, which are likely to be relevant to its customers' internal controls over financial reporting. The report is intended for use by CoreLink's customers and their auditors.
