Splunk Achieves ISO 27001 Certification for Splunk Cloud

Customers Continue to Win as Splunk Cloud Release Strategy Focuses on Agile, Cloud-First Releases

SAN FRANCISCO – January 25, 2016 – Splunk Inc. (NASDAQ: SPLK), provider of the leading software platform for real-time Operational Intelligence, today announced it has achieved the International Organization for Standardization’s information security standard 27001 (ISO 27001) certification for Splunk® Cloud. The ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certification is an international standard that formally outlines requirements for an information security management system (ISMS) to help protect and secure organizations’ data. The certification is in addition to Splunk Cloud’s SOC2 Type II attestation and provides additional third-party validation of the security practices and procedures of Splunk Cloud. Splunk Cloud’s certifications for SOC2 Type II and ISO/IEC 27001:2013 currently apply to Splunk Cloud environments provisioned for data ingested over 20GB/day.

“Stringent data security and data integrity are fundamental design principles of Splunk Cloud,” said Marc Olesen, senior vice president and general manager of cloud solutions, Splunk. “Achievement of ISO 27001 certification is a result of our focus on information security management, compliance with international standards and delivery of an easy-to-use cloud service that helps customers worldwide quickly gain value with full confidence.”

Customers can deploy Splunk Cloud alongside Splunk Enterprise for a single, centralized view across their machine data.

“From day one, Splunk Cloud has given us actionable, data-driven intelligence, and Splunk’s cloud-first release process ensures we always have the leading-edge cloud-based SIEM solution,” said George Do, CISO, Equinix. “With Splunk Enterprise Security in the cloud, we are getting comprehensive SIEM functionality, the economics and simplicity of software as a service, and outstanding availability and security.
