The Trusted Site Infrastructure (TSI) standard, developed by TÜV NORD, is a comprehensive framework designed to evaluate and certify the physical security and operational availability of data centers. Established in 2001, this standard takes a holistic approach, assessing both the physical infrastructure and the organizational processes that support the data center. By addressing a wide range of criteria, from building design and power supply to cooling systems and access controls, TSI aims to ensure that data centers can provide the highest possible levels of availability and security.
TSI certification involves a rigorous assessment process, which includes detailed analysis of the data center's infrastructure, as well as its management and operational practices. This process helps identify potential vulnerabilities and ensures that the data center meets stringent requirements for reliability and safety. By achieving TSI certification, data centers can demonstrate their commitment to maintaining robust security measures and operational excellence, which in turn enhances trust and confidence among clients and stakeholders. This certification not only helps data centers improve their resilience and performance but also provides a competitive edge in the market.
