Cloud provider doubles down on compliance with new certification

Olla Systems, a provider of cloud and IT infrastructure solutions, has received Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) certification.

This is an internationally recognised benchmark for safeguarding cardholder data. PCI DSS is a globally mandated standard designed to protect cardholder data during processing, storage, and transmission.

“With PCI DSS certification, we’re reinforcing our role as a trusted infrastructure partner for businesses that handle sensitive financial information: financial institutions, manufacturing companies, government entities, fast-growth startups and fintechs, among many others,” said Olusola Adenuga, chief executive officer of Olla Systems.

“It’s not just about compliance – it’s about providing peace of mind to our clients that their data is protected by globally accepted security best practices.”

The certification positions OllaCloud, the company’s flagship enterprise-grade cloud platform, as an ideal solution for fintechs, digital banks, payment processors, and online merchants looking to meet stringent regulatory requirements without compromising on performance, availability, or scalability.

Purpose-built to serve regulated industries and high-growth businesses, OllaCloud offers secure Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) across Nigeria, enabling clients to confidently migrate workloads, launch compliant applications, and scale operations while ensuring end-to-end data protection.

“As we continue to support Africa’s digital economy, PCI DSS compliance helps us better serve organisations in need of infrastructure that meets both their growth ambitions and their regulatory responsibilities, and doing this while being able to pay in local currency,” Adenuga added.
