Microsoft Announces Office 365 Service Trust Portal About Security, Compliance And Privacy

The Office 365 Service Trust Portal (STP) provides resources about business data safety and industry compliance requirements. Users can search the portal for documents that describe Microsoft’s security practices for customer business data stored in Office 365.

In a move to more transparency Microsoft wants to help customers to understand how Office 365 stores and manages data and what companies need to do for being compliant with current legislation.

As many businesses begin to move large amounts of personalized and confidential documents and resources into the cloud, the Office 365 Service Trust Portal can be used to manage the whole data-management in a correct way.

“To continue as a leader in cloud service delivery, we know that transparency is key to gaining your trust. We believe that by being transparent with you on how we protect your data, how we ensure that it is always available, how we maintain compliance with various global standards, and how we adhere to strict privacy commitments, we will continue to have a trust-based partnership with you.
