Carpathia Hosting, the leading provider of enterprise managed hosting services for government agencies and enterprises, announced today that Ethical Advocate, one of the country’s leading companies providing comprehensive ethics and compliance solutions, has chosen Carpathia for Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) compliant hosting solutions.
After contracting to provide safe, secure and anonymous hotline services to the Durham VA Medical Center in Durham, NC, Ethical Advocate needed to find a hosting partner capable of delivering compliant managed hosting services in a FISMA compliant facility.
“Given the nature of our work, data security has always been at the top of our requirements list, but in order to become the ethics hotline provider for the Durham VA Medical Center, we needed to become compliant with FISMA,” said Jacob Blass, president of Ethical Advocate. “We could not have achieved FISMA compliance without Carpathia’s compliant hosting and its outstanding customer service. The team worked with us every step along the way and continues to as our needs evolve.”
Carpathia Hosting’s commitment to secure hosting environments is most visible at its flagship datacenter location, the Vault. After a comprehensive review of the market, Ethical Advocate was drawn to Carpathia’s solutions and knew that the Vault was the most secure turnkey FISMA-compliant hosting facility it could find. Executing on a defense-in-depth strategy, Carpathia leverages its compliant operational activities on a physical, systems and infrastructure level for all Vault-hosted customers.
“One huge differentiator for Carpathia is that our offering is compliant by design, and — unlike other hosting companies — requires no additional ‘fit-up’, supplemental costs or implementation effort to achieve government certification and accreditation,” states Jon Greaves, CTO of Carpathia Hosting. “Ethical Advocate now has numerous government contractors and government agencies as clients using its FISMA compliant hotline service.”
