Data storage and sovereignty

Where is our data stored?

Centuri stores all customer data on servers in Sweden. Hosting is managed by Fouredge, a Swedish infrastructure partner with data centres in Sweden, and no data is stored or processed outside the EU/EEA.

For organisations in healthcare, life science and manufacturing, knowing where information is held is often a requirement. With Centuri, you have a documented answer when customers, auditors or authorities ask.

Swedish law applies

The hosting environment is owned and operated by Swedish companies. Your data is therefore not subject to laws that give foreign authorities access, such as the US CLOUD Act.

Information security

How does Centuri protect our information?

Centuri is built on the principles of ISO 27001, and security is part of how the platform is developed and operated. Security is reviewed regularly through security audits and penetration tests. Centuri staff only access customer data when it is needed to deliver the service.

Encryption

All traffic to and from Centuri is encrypted with TLS 1.2 or later. File transfers use SFTP.

The right people see the right information

Permissions are set by role, down to individual fields in a form.

Every change can be traced

All events are logged, including changes at field level. Hashing detects if content has been changed without being logged. The log can be exported ahead of an internal or external audit.

Operations and continuity

Operations that hold up, even when something goes wrong

The platform runs in a redundant environment with load balancing, so a fault in one component does not stop the service.

Backups that are tested

Centuri takes a backup every day and a full copy every week. Restores are tested every quarter, so you know they work when you need them.

Incidents follow a fixed process

A security incident is handled according to a documented procedure with response times and escalation. Affected customers are informed immediately, and personal data breaches are reported within 72 hours under GDPR.

Planned updates

Updates are carried out in scheduled maintenance windows.

Swedish support

You get help from Swedish support with defined response times and escalation.

Your data, your control

Your data is yours, even when the contract ends

The data is yours. Centuri only uses it to deliver the service. When the contract ends, you get your information back, and it is then deleted.

Questions about security and operations

Are we affected by the US CLOUD Act if we use Centuri?

No. The US CLOUD Act gives US authorities the right to request data from US companies, even when the data is stored abroad. Centuri and its hosting partner Fouredge are Swedish companies with no US ownership, and your data is stored on servers in Sweden. It is therefore not covered by the act.

Does Centuri sign a data processing agreement?

Yes. Centuri is a data processor under GDPR and signs a data processing agreement with every customer. The agreement describes which personal data is processed, for what purpose and how it is protected. Centuri only processes the personal data to deliver the service.

Which sub-processors does Centuri use?

Centuri uses a small number of sub-processors to deliver the service, including Fouredge for hosting and data storage in Sweden. All sub-processors are listed in the data processing agreement, and you are informed before a new sub-processor starts processing your data.

How does Centuri help us comply with NIS2?

NIS2 sets requirements for risk management, incident reporting and business continuity planning in essential and important entities. Centuri provides documentation, traceability and tools for exactly that: risk assessments with actions, incidents in traceable workflows and controlled continuity procedures. Centuri is also a supplier you can present in your own supplier assessment.
