Cloudflare is an ENS-certified provider for certain products at the “High” security level. Cloudflare’s ENS Certificate of Conformity is available to download from the Cloudflare dashboard.
ENS is regulated by the 2022 Royal Decree which aims to establish and maintain the security of sensitive and critical information systems and data within Spain’s Public Administration organizations and their service providers with mandatory requirements.
ENS establishes the minimum security requirements for public sector information systems. Its primary goal is to ensure the protection of confidentiality, integrity, access, traceability, authenticity, and availability for the preservation of data, information and services. ENS aligns with both domestic and European regulations in response to the expanding use of digital technology in public services. Certification is obtained through accredited third party auditors.
The ENS framework is defined by the Royal Decree, which outlines security measures. These security measures are applied based on the system’s security level with specific requirements at each level to mitigate risks and protect systems against cyber threats.
ENS compliance is applicable in Spain for:
Public sector organizations.
Private companies working with the public sector or managing government data.
ENS has three security levels:
Basic: for low-sensitivity systems.
Medium: for systems with moderate sensitivity or impact.
High: for highly sensitive or critical systems.
Certificate of conformity is issued by an accredited third party auditor after a formal audit which is required for “Medium” and “High” security levels.
Declaration of conformity is a self-assessment by the organization; suitable for Basic-level systems only.
Yes, Cloudflare maintains a Certificate of Conformity at the “High” security level.
Yes, the ENS certification does expire and must be renewed to remain valid. Cloudflare ensures compliance by undergoing re-certification every two years conducted by an accredited third party auditor.
