Please note that ISO 27001 is about the protection of information security, and if there is no information to be protected in your data center it cannot be certified against ISO 27001.

2 - And what are the data center dependencies if my ISO scope is going to be a datacenter only?

When the ISO scope is the datacenter only, examples of dependencies can be:

  • business units that use the data center (they define requirements for the protection of information)
  • manufacturers of data center equipment
  • providers of communication links and electric power
