    SSAE 16, and its predecessor standard SAS 70, are audit standards maintained by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants that provide service organizations across a variety of industries a mechanism to define the set of internal control objectives that are important to their customers' and their customers' auditors and have an independent assessment of the internal controls supporting those control objectives completed that can provide customers assurance on the design and operational effectiveness of those controls.

The resulting audit report provides PeakColo users reasonable assurance that appropriate internal control objectives related to the services delivered were achieved during the review period.
