Announcement posted by base2Services 24 Sep 2026
Melbourne, Australia - 24th September 2026 - base2Services, a global Cloud Delivery, Operations and Management provider and Amazon Web Services (AWS) Advanced Tier Services Partner, has been independently assessed against APRA Prudential Standard CPS 230 - Operational Risk Management, strengthening its assurance framework for customers operating in regulated environments.
CPS 230 is the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority's standard for operational risk management. It requires regulated organisations to manage operational risk, maintain critical operations through disruption and manage the risks associated with the service providers they rely on.
For organisations relying on cloud and managed services, this places increased importance on the operational practices of their technology partners.
The independent assessment reviewed the way base2Services approaches operational risk management, business continuity and resilience, service provider governance, and controls and accountability across the services it delivers.
Arthur Marinis, Managing Director at base2Services, said the assessment provides customers with greater confidence when evaluating the operational practices of a technology partner.
"Our customers rely on us to operate cloud environments that are critical to their businesses. For organisations in regulated industries, that means they need confidence not only in the technology, but in the processes, controls and people behind it. Our independent CPS 230 assessment gives customers additional assurance that operational risk and resilience are built into the way we deliver and manage our services every day."
The CPS 230 assessment adds another layer of independent validation alongside base2Services' ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, renewed in December 2025, and its independent assessment against APRA CPS 234, first achieved in 2021 and most recently renewed in April 2026.
Together, these provide assurance across information security, governance and operational resilience.
For customers in financial services and other regulated environments, the latest assessment provides a clearer basis for evaluating base2Services as a technology partner and understanding the operational practices supporting their cloud environments.
