As Borealis Data Center approaches its remarkable 10th anniversary in 2024, the company is not only getting ready to commemorate a decade of excellence but also marking significant achievements in the form of industry certifications and sustainability milestones. 

Borealis Data Center, known for building and operating sustainable data centers here in Iceland, is making substantial strides in securing key certifications and was recommended for ISO 27001 (information security), ISO 27017 (Cloud), and ISO 27018 (GDPR). The company continues to set the standard for security and compliance in the data center industry.

ISO 27017 and ISO 27018 certifications further demonstrate our dedication to cloud security and the protection of personally identifiable information (PII). These certifications reflect our expertise, commitment to compliance with regulations, and adherence to the highest standards in information security. 

"Borealis Data Center has been at the forefront of sustainable data center solutions for the past decade. We are proud to announce our progress toward these essential certifications, reinforcing our commitment to excellence and security," said Björn Brynjúlfsson, CEO and Cofounder of Borealis Data Center. 

"It's not just about meeting industry standards; it's about setting the bar for excellence in data center operations. Our dedication to compliance is embedded in our culture, ensuring that our clients can trust us with their most sensitive data," said István Végh-Sigurvinsson, Borealis Data Center‘s Compliance Officer who led the effort. 

Borealis Data Center enterprises on its strategic location here in Iceland and serves as a bridge between North America and Europe, providing an ideal solution for companies seeking to establish AI/HPC or HA operations in one of the safest places globally. Year-round natural cooling and long-term energy contracts ensures cost predictability and operational efficiency for its clients, a pretty unique value proposition when set against data centers operating in other countries. This all makes it a strong contender for operators aiming for both economic efficiency and environmental responsibility, contributing to the global push for carbon neutrality. 

In addition to its focused pursuit of certifications, Borealis Data Center sets itself apart through its unwavering commitment to community. Borealis wants to go beyond educating and influencing perceptions of data centers in Iceland, an industry which is largely misunderstood; it is committed to making tangible, positive contributions to Icelandic society. This commitment takes various forms, such as job creation, community development, and the embrace of circular economy principles, exemplified by its involvement in a heat reuse project with municipalities in the North and the Ministry of the Environment, Energy, and Climate. Borealis understands that its role surpasses providing cutting-edge data solutions to both foreign and domestic clients; it involves actively contributing to the well-being and prosperity of the communities in which it operates.
