How Azure Data Centers Work

Secured Signing Partners with Microsoft Azure to Elevate Your Experience! 

Secured Signing has teamed up with Microsoft Azure’s multi-region data centers to deliver enhanced security and compliance. We distribute workloads across multiple regions to mitigate risks like system overloads, improve response times, and meet stringent regulatory standards. Azure’s advanced infrastructure maintains seamless operations, even in the most challenging situations.

How Azure Data Centers Work 

Microsoft Azure’s data centers are innovative facilities engineered for peak performance and security. Each region contains climate-controlled buildings housing server racks and physical hardware, all connected by a low-latency, high-reliability network. 

Key Features Include: 

  • Uninterrupted Power Supply: Backup generators maintain operations during power outages. 
  • Secure Fiber-Optic Network: Data travels through Microsoft’s private fiber-optic network, including undersea cables, ensuring enhanced security. 
  • Disaster Resilience & Recovery: Multi-region deployments provide robust disaster recovery capabilities by replicating data across multiple regions. If one region experiences a failure or disaster, data stored in another region remains safe and accessible, ensuring rapid recovery and continuity. 
  • Optimized Performance: Microsoft guarantees a network latency of 2 milliseconds or less between regions, ensuring fast and reliable application performance. 
  • Compliance: You can meet data sovereignty and regulatory requirements by storing data in specific regions. 
  • Scalability: Multi-region setups allow you to scale beyond resource quotas and avoid capacity restrictions. 

What This Means for You 

Secured Signing’s teams up with Azure’s multi-region infrastructure ensures that your documents and data are processed and stored in a local data center based on your region. This guarantees faster access, compliance with local laws, and top-tier security. 

Regional Data Processing: 

  • US & Canada: We process and store data in the US to comply with local regulations and speed up access.
  • Europe & UK: Data is processed and stored in the UK, aligning with GDPR and other regional standards. 
  • Australia: Data is processed and stored in Australia, meeting Australian privacy laws, and enhancing performance. 
  • New Zealand: Data is processed and stored in New Zealand, ensuring compliance with NZ privacy regulations. 
  • Other Countries: We process and store data in the US to maintain global accessibility and the highest security standards. 

Why It Matters 

This regional approach ensures we manage your data with the highest level of security while adhering to local compliance requirements and maintaining reliability. When you choose Secured Signing and Microsoft Azure, you gain digital signatures and Remote Online Notarization services powered by a robust, globally optimized infrastructure.

Microsoft builds Azure data centers with multiple security layers to protect your data and applications.

Key security features include:

Physical Security: Azure data centers maintain extensive physical security with perimeter fencing, security officers, locked server racks, integrated alarm systems, and around-the-clock video surveillance.

Security personnel control access tightly, requiring multi-factor authentication and biometric verification for entry.

Environmental Protection: Microsoft strategically locates Azure data centers to minimize natural disaster risks from floods, earthquakes, and hurricanes. Climate control systems maintain optimal conditions for equipment and hardware.

Network Security: Azure implements advanced network security through data-link layer encryption, content distribution, load balancing, and redundancy to protect data traveling within and between regions.

Compliance: Azure data centers maintain compliance with industry standards and certifications, including GDPR, ISO/IEC 27001, and HIPAA, ensuring proper data handling according to regulatory requirements.

Monitoring and Response: Security Operations Centers continuously monitor sites and facilities using video surveillance and integrated electronic access control systems. Security personnel immediately respond to unauthorized entry attempts.

Defense-in-Depth: Azure implements multi-layered security at the facility’s perimeter, building’s perimeter, inside the building, and on the datacenter floor. This approach minimizes unauthorized access risks to data and resources.
