Dynatrace achieves CSA Star 2 certification

We're excited to announce that Dynatrace has successfully achieved CSA Star 2 certification with a Gold Maturity Score. This significant milestone underscores our ongoing commitment to maintaining the highest standards of security and compliance in the cloud and making it easier for our customers to use Dynatrace SaaS.

What is CSA Star 2?

The Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) Security, Trust & Assurance Registry (STAR) is a comprehensive framework for cloud security assurance. The Level 2 certification involves a rigorous third-party assessment based on the CSA's Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM). This certification is specifically designed for Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) and builds upon the more generic approaches of ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II.

CSA Star 2 strengthens Dynatrace cloud security posture

CSA Star 2 certification provides a trusted benchmark for cloud security and thus strengthens the overall Dynatrace security posture. It signifies that a cloud provider has undergone a thorough evaluation by an independent auditor, confirming that their security measures meet or exceed industry standards.
