I do not know who they use for the SPO CDN capability.

What I do know is that if you are using an Azure CDN, the providers are Akamai and Verizon. Both are listed on the pricing page for the Azure CDN. I'd be surprised if it is not one of those.

Thanks! I had figured it was probably Akamai networks.

I was concerned however about the warning that appears when you enable the O365 CDN through PowerShell about it not being covered by their data/security policies and it was a 3rd party when dealing with a client that has regulatory requirements.

We have the same issue - I need specifics on what compliance / security policies the Private CDN offers. Do we have an official document anywhere? It's unlikely our compliance department will accept "probably Akamai".
