Security of SPO

[Newlife]

Hi Experts, 

One of our customer operates in the finance industry and they are looking to migrate all data into SharePoint Online. 

They have specific regulatory requirements surrounding their data and one of these is BS 10008. The concern is with using SharePoint in relation to documentation that can be used for legal service and whether the Microsoft 365 platform has any certifications to negate this or not. 

Please advise. Any pointers would be of great help. Many thanks!!

Hi! I would start checking here:

I did a quick search but didn’t find the BS 10008 but it might go under another name?
What country are you in?

I would also recommend to go to the Compliance & Security Center and check the Service Assurance section where you will have access to the different regulations that are accomplished with Office 365
