Gigas is Esquema Nacional de Seguridad (ENS) certified. This certification establishes security standards that apply to all government agencies and public organizations in Spain, and service providers on which the public services are dependent on.
This is the most commonly used standard when verifying that a company has the appropriate controls to manage the confidentiality, integrity and availability of its information and that of its clients. In order to obtain this certification, we had to demonstrate that we have a systematic approach and control in the management of every single aspect related to information security. In addition to policies and procedures for proper information security management, we offer specific security measures such as Intrusion Detection and Intrusion Prevention Systems (IDS/IPS) to filter attacks and intrusions, different firewall technologies that block authorized communications (but allow legitimate ones through), web traffic analysis and, of course, anti-virus and anti-spam systems.
The double certification in ISO 27001 and ISO 27018 allows us to assure our customers that their data hosted in our cloud is guaranteed and will not be used for any purpose for which their consent is not expressly given.

In 2015 it won the public tender of the open call by the Directorate General of the European Commission for Informatics (DIGIT), together with Belgacom (BE), SFR (FR) , KPN (NL), Portugal Telecom and Enter (IT). The result was based on a rigorous analysis and testing of our platform and our processes, including a verification of the security guarantees we offer with regard to data hosting.
One of the main recommendations when choosing a cloud, and thus also where to host one’s business data, is to ensure that it has recognized international accreditations and certification standards that are kept up to date.

The company is audited every year to ensure that all processes with regard to this matter are treated correctly. Furthermore, the European CISPE certification code of conduct regarding the data security of our cloud solutions, coupled with our strict procedures to safeguard the integrity of data security, are a definitive guarantee for our clients that we have a reliable security policy in place.
