UNDERSTAND THE EVIDENCE ## Compliance & standards ### Tier 3 — status unverified Tier 3 operator claim; formal certification not evidenced Intercity states its data centre facilities are ISO 27001 and ISO 22301 certified, built to PSN and PCI standards, and Cyber Essentials Plus certified, supporting OFFICIAL and OFFICIAL-SENSITIVE classifications. Intercity's page also cites a further standard shown as ISO12000:1, which does not correspond to a standard we can independently identify, so this should be treated with caution pending clarification from the operator. These are described as facility level statements rather than downloadable certificates with stated scope, issue or expiry dates. A listed standard does not by itself confirm certification of this facility. Check the scope, evidence and validity with the operator.
