Privacy and information security – ISO 27001 certified managed hosting

ISO: what it is and why it matters

ISO is the International Organization for Standardization. This organization develops globally recognized standards in areas such as information security and quality management. ISO certifications show that processes are audited, risks are identified, and work is conducted according to fixed quality and security standards.

ISO is a worldwide standard for quality and security. Organizations that hold an ISO certification demonstrate that they follow clear processes, understand and manage risks, and take their work seriously.

ISO 27001:2022 – Information Security

Take ISO 27001. This standard focuses entirely on information security. Rootnet meets all associated requirements: access rights are well-managed, servers are updated daily, suspicious changes are detected immediately, and data is backed up daily to a separate physical location. So if something goes wrong, there’s always a way to recover quickly.

ISO 9001:2015 – Quality Management

Then there’s ISO 9001: this one is about quality. Everything that matters—from hosting processes to error handling—is documented, measurable, and auditable. If something goes wrong, it’s not only resolved, but also analyzed to prevent it from happening again. Even in cases like a power outage at the data center, everything keeps running thanks to contingency planning and backups. Quality, with a plan B.

NEN 7510 – Security in the Healthcare Sector

Since many of our clients operate in sectors where sensitive information is involved, we also believe it's important that our hosting partner complies with NEN 7510, the Dutch standard for information security in healthcare. This standard imposes even stricter requirements for handling personal data, such as medical records or government information. Well organized—even at the national level.

GDPR – European Privacy Legislation

And then the foundation: the GDPR. Everything that goes through Linqur stays within the Netherlands. The servers are located in Ede, and the backup environment is in Amsterdam. No hassle with cross-border data flows or vague legal constructions. Everything runs through data centers that are not only technically sound but also legally compliant with European legislation.
