Security you can trust: Crusoe Cloud achieves ISO 27001 and 42001 certifications

Crusoe has achieved ISO 27001 and ISO 42001 certifications — the internationally recognized standards for information security management and AI governance. These independently audited certifications validate our security and responsible AI practices across our entire infrastructure stack.

Here's an uncomfortable truth about AI infrastructure: the stakes are higher than ever, and trust is harder to earn.

Your models are trained on proprietary data. Your inference endpoints handle sensitive customer information. Your AI systems make decisions that impact real people. And somewhere in that stack (between the GPUs, the orchestration layer, and the model weights) you're placing an enormous bet on your infrastructure provider's security and governance practices.

"Trust us" doesn't cut it anymore. Organizations need documented evidence for regulatory compliance, clear answers for customer due diligence on AI accountability, and proven governance frameworks that support long-term growth.

That's why we're announcing that Crusoe has achieved ISO 27001 and ISO 42001 certifications — the internationally recognized standard for information security management and the world's first AI management system standard, both independently audited. We're among the first AI-focused cloud providers to earn both certifications simultaneously.

Why security and governance matter

AI is enabling fast-paced innovation in every layer of the stack, from model creation to serving. Meanwhile, users of these services need concrete evidence that their AI workloads are secure and responsibly managed.

The problem isn't just technical security. It's also about governance: What does the development cycle look like in this new world? Who's accountable when something goes wrong? Are there mechanisms in place to detect bias, ensure transparency, and maintain human oversight?

These aren't hypothetical concerns. They're the questions your legal team is asking. They're what your procurement process requires. And they're the standards your customers expect you to meet. Which is why we are committed to investing in security and AI governance controls across our entire stack. 

What we achieved and what it means for you

Crusoe recently completed independent external audits and earned two globally recognized security and compliance certifications.

ISO 27001: The foundation of information security

ISO 27001 certification confirms that Crusoe maintains a comprehensive Information Security Management System (ISMS) across our Cloud Platform (IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS) and Managed Inference services.

In simple terms? We've implemented rigorous, audited controls designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your data. This covers everything from access management and encryption to incident response and continuous monitoring.

For you, this means:

  • A security-first foundation built into everything we do — from infrastructure design to service delivery, security isn't bolted on as an afterthought but engineered into every layer of our platform.
  • Independent validation that your workloads are running on infrastructure with enterprise-grade security controls.
  • Easier compliance when your own customers or auditors ask about your cloud provider's security posture.
  • Reduced risk across your AI development and deployment lifecycle.

ISO 42001: Leading the way in responsible AI governance

ISO 42001 is newer and arguably more important for AI workloads. It's the world's first international standard for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems (AIMS), and Crusoe is among the earliest adopters.

Here's what makes this certification unique: we operate in a dual role as both an AI provider and an AI user, and ISO 42001 governs both dimensions.

As an AI provider: Crusoe Managed Inference and AI offerings are developed, delivered, and monitored through frameworks designed to ensure safety, fairness, and responsible design. We're not just shipping compute; we're governing the AI services we provide with documented policies, risk assessments, and ongoing evaluation.

As an AI user: Internally, we use AI in our software development lifecycle (SDLC) and customer support operations. ISO 42001 ensures that our own use of AI is ethical, transparent, and accountable, with human oversight and continuous monitoring built in.

For you, this means:

  • Trust that extends beyond infrastructure into how AI itself is managed throughout its lifecycle.
  • A partner who understands AI governance because we're held to the same standards you are.
  • Future-proofing as regulatory requirements around AI transparency and accountability continue to evolve.

Building the future responsibly

Achieving ISO 27001 and ISO 42001 isn't a one-time event; it's an ongoing commitment requiring continuous monitoring, regular audits, and constant evolution as threats and technologies change.

AI has the potential to solve humanity's biggest challenges, but only on infrastructure that earns and maintains trust. Whether you're training foundation models, deploying customer-facing inference, or running mission-critical HPC workloads, you deserve a partner who takes security and governance as seriously as performance.

These certifications are our way of proving — not just promising — that Crusoe is that partner.
