What Makes Us Different

FRA Data Centers

FRA operates six secure Data Centers in London, Paris, Zurich, Stockholm, Montreal, and Providence, Rhode Island, all of which are Tier 3 or 4 facilities that are SSAE-16 Certified, SOC 1/SOC 2/SSAE 16/ISAE 3402 and ITAR compliant. Our Data Centers provide clients with full in country redundancy and backup for all of their critical systems, as well as multi-factor physical access controls.

Mobile Discovery Solution

When data must remain in a country in which FRA does not have a secure Data Center—or when client would simply prefer for their data to remain on their own premises—our full-service Mobile Discovery Solution offers a scalable platform with robust security capabilities: • Dedicated hardware hosted at client facility ensures no data need to leave premises • Can be air-gapped to restrict any outside access, for the highest levels of data security • Multiple layers of encryption to enhance physical security • Custom workflows available to handle many data pre-clearance requirements

Development & Engineering

When off the shelf solutions are not enough, FRA’s Development & Engineering team leverages the industry’s most cutting edge technology to provide efficient and innovative solutions to complex data governance processes, projects and problems. We create bespoke data management solutions which collect, analyse, report on data workflows—including for jurisdictional restricted data—and help clients design and implement better data governance processes, integrating technology to ensure that processes are defensible and auditable, and that data is consistently and properly across all workflows. Our expert developers and engineers understand the nuance of data flows and how manipulation affects the bigger picture, to help you move your data governance program forward.
