Sectra receives CSA STAR Level 2 security certificate--facilitating cloud adoption in healthcare

LINKÖPING, Sweden, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- International medical imaging IT and cybersecurity company Sectra (STO: SECT B) has received CSA STAR Level 2 certificate for its Software-as-a-Service subscription for enterprise imaging, Sectra One Cloud, following an assessment according to the framework of the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA). This highlights Sectra's ability to maintain the highest standards of security and compliance for its cloud offerings. 

CSA STAR (Security, Trust, Assurance, and Risk) is a certification program developed by the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA). While level 1 relies on self-assessment, the level 2 certificate follows rigorous, independent third-party auditing of the organization's security posture, policies, procedures, and cloud infrastructure. The certification leverages the requirements of the ISO/IEC 27001 management system standard together with the CSA Cloud Controls Matrix. 

The certificate attained for Sectra One Cloud, which operates within the Microsoft Azure public cloud environment, is a testament to Sectra's commitment to cloud security and transparency. 

"Going cloud is becoming the first choice for healthcare providers to efficiently handle growing imaging volumes and reinforce data security. In an era where data breaches and cyber threats are increasing, it's vital that these cloud solutions follow robust security standards. The CSA STAR Level 2 certificate provides healthcare providers that assurance," says Fredrik Gustavsson, CTO at Sectra Imaging IT Solutions.

Sectra One Cloud is a fully managed service for enterprise imaging where Sectra continuously monitors, optimizes, and upgrades the solution as well as provides 24/7 support. With the enterprise imaging solution, healthcare providers get a unified strategy for all imaging needs while lowering operational costs.
