How the Leaseweb Trust model works
The Leaseweb Trust model uses our portfolio of services, expectations from external and internal stakeholders, and risk assessment workshops as the foundation and starting point of our compliance approach. Based on these inputs we created one custom framework which is divided into building blocks (right column) and the different industry standards (top row).
With this multi-audit approach we use the “test-once test-many” principle. It enabled three independent audit firms to work closely and made it location and Leaseweb company independent. But more importantly it provides a completely custom tailored framework that aligns with our services, business needs and risk landscape – as well as with your expectations as a customer. Every building block is now covered and independently audited by at least one certification/assurance report.

The building blocks of the Leaseweb Trust Model
Normally, SOC1 is associated with financial controls but, given the type of our business we broadened the remit of our assurance reports to reflect our close connection with IT issues. This also enhances their relevance to our customers and their operations.
