Based in London, trust-hub is a software house with a platform designed to manage personal data within an organisation. Private and public sector customers can use the software to understand their personal data eco-system, to see all data remains compliant, secure and meets data protection law.
Ian Bryant, COO at trust-hub, says: “Our platform has been developed from the ground up with Privacy by Design at its heart. We needed a partner with the same values as us – placing security and compliance at the top of the agenda – to help design, build and operate this state of the art encryption tool right first time. Security could simply not be an afterthought half way through development.”
trust-hub looked at several companies who could provide a secure physical infrastructure for the platform. The Bunker has provided a dedicated virtualised environment at its military grade, UK-based, accredited data centre for trust-hub, with access control, PCI compliance and UK back-ups.
Ian says: “The Bunker could see the opportunity to grow with us and we were impressed with everything they offered. It’s an ultra-secure environment, accredited by all the bodies we need, where networks aren’t routed out of the UK. It’s also delivered as an Infrastructure as a Service solution, which fits in perfectly with our own business model.”
The Bunker enabled the business to get to market faster. trust-hub now has access to a larger, dedicated team of IT staff on demand, which helps control costs while providing the opportunity to grow in a secure, dedicated virtualised environment. The physical security, along with key accreditations ensure trust-hub and their customers feel confident that their data remains secure.
Ian says: “As soon as we mention to our C-Suite prospects that we work with The Bunker – it’s an immediate tick in the box. The underground secure location, the accreditations, the dedicated private access control with high availability and disaster recovery – it’s the perfect package for our platform and gives our customers complete data confidence – especially in regard to the looming GDPR regulations.”
trust-hub says it expects to take advantage of The Bunker’s other services. Ian adds: “The Bunker recognised immediately where we wanted to be. Privacy by Design is part of our DNA – just like The Bunker. We have developed a true partnership and we look forward to continuing on our journey together.”
