Wiz Secures CPSTIC Certification for Spanish Public Sector Cloud Deployments

Wiz Achieves Spanish Public Sector Security Certification

Cloud security platform provider Wiz announced it has received CPSTIC (Centro de Proceso de Datos, Sistemas de Telecomunicaciones e Informática de la Comunidad) certification in Spain. The certification positions Wiz to support Spanish public sector organizations in their cloud modernization efforts while meeting stringent government security requirements.

CPSTIC Certification Requirements

CPSTIC certification represents Spain's framework for evaluating cloud services and technology providers serving the public sector. The certification process validates that vendors meet specific security, privacy, and operational standards required for government cloud deployments.

For cloud security platforms like Wiz, achieving this certification demonstrates compliance with Spanish public administration requirements for:

• Data sovereignty and residency controls
• Security framework alignment with national standards
• Operational transparency and audit capabilities
• Integration compatibility with existing government infrastructure

Impact on Spanish Public Sector Cloud Security

The certification enables Spanish government agencies and public institutions to procure Wiz's cloud security posture management (CSPM) capabilities through approved channels. This development supports Spain's broader digital transformation initiatives while maintaining compliance with national cybersecurity frameworks.

Wiz's platform provides real-time visibility across multi-cloud environments, identifying misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and compliance gaps that could expose public sector cloud deployments to security risks.

Market Context

The CPSTIC certification reflects the growing emphasis on vendor security validation within European public sector procurement processes. Similar certification frameworks across EU member states are increasingly requiring cloud security vendors to demonstrate compliance with regional data protection and cybersecurity standards.

This development follows broader trends in European cloud security policy, where government agencies are balancing digital modernization goals with sovereignty and security requirements.
