SEATTLE, WA--(Marketwired - Dec 2, 2015) - Skilljar announced today that it has been awarded the highest Skyhigh CloudTrust™ rating of Enterprise-Ready for its online training platform. Skyhigh Enterprise-Ready cloud services fully satisfy the most stringent requirements for data protection, identity verification, service security, business practices, and legal protection.
"We are excited to be recognized by cloud IT leaders for our commitment to data and security standards," said Sandi Lin, CEO and co-founder of Skilljar. "As learning management systems move to the cloud, the Skyhigh Enterprise-Ready designation is critically important in demonstrating Skilljar's security controls and enterprise readiness."
Skyhigh identifies and classifies thousands of cloud services and provides an objective and detailed evaluation of the enterprise-readiness of each cloud service based on a detailed set of criteria developed in conjunction with the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA). The evaluation spans five categories:
- Data attributes
- User and device attributes
- Service attributes
- Business attributes
- Legal attributes
"Companies seek enterprise-ready services such as Skilljar's learning management system (LMS), but vetting the capabilities and policies of a provider consumes a great deal of time and resources," said Kamal Shah, vice-president of products and marketing at Skyhigh Networks. "The Skyhigh CloudTrust Rating™ shortens the evaluation process from weeks to hours by offering an objective, holistic assessment of a service provider's security capabilities and enterprise readiness."
