• Guarantee of ethics, protection and confidentiality of data, reports and documents exchanged
• Guarantee of an appropriate methodology for security audits
• Recourse possible to the Monegasque Digital Security Agency (AMSN) if the service provided does not comply with the PASSI standard.

This approach is part of the national strategy for digital security of the Monegasque Digital Security Agency (AMSN) to implement, according to the will of the Government "a strong, safe, sustainable Monegasque cyber space, which allows the Principality to look serenely towards the future."

Only 5 companies in total are PASSI qualified in the Principality of Monaco (at the time of this writing) with the endorsement of COFRAC, the French national accreditation body which attests to the competence and impartiality of certification bodies. .
