Case Study: SmartVault achieves 100% uptime and SSAE‑16‑compliant secure cloud storage with CyrusOne

Ensuring Effective and Secure Solutions Using Data Center Providers

SmartVault, a Houston-based SaaS provider of secure online document storage and file sharing for accounting and tax firms, needed a nearby colocation partner that could deliver 100% uptime, SSAE16 SOC 2 compliance, strong physical security, and highly redundant power and connectivity to protect sensitive financial data and ensure continuous customer access.

SmartVault selected CyrusOne’s Houston Galleria data center, gaining a reinforced, hurricane-resistant facility with dual-grid power, diesel backup, redundant PDUs and ISP ties, plus multilayer physical security and SSAE16 SOC 2 attestation. The result: uninterrupted service (including during Hurricane Ike), reliable customer access, scalable capacity and a trusted operational partnership that lets SmartVault focus on its core business.
