Netmagic Solutions currently specializes in Internet data centers, managed hosting, remote infrastructure monitoring and management, and mail and messaging services.

ISO/IEC 27001 is a part of a growing family of ISO/IEC standards. The 'ISO/IEC 27000 series' is an information security management system (ISMS) standard published in October 2005 by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).

The ISO/IEC 27001 certification deals with establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, reviewing, maintaining, and improving an information security management system (ISMS). Since a data center hosts critical data, a sophisticated and rigorous ISMS is absolutely essential. Certification by an independent third party gives the confidence to the customers of Netmagic that their data is safe and secure within the company.
