Olla Systems Certified For PCI DSS, Reinforces Commitment To Secure Infrastructure

Olla Systems, a leading provider of cloud and IT infrastructure solutions, has achieved the globally recognized Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) certification, underscoring its strong commitment to secure, compliant, and resilient digital infrastructure for businesses in regulated sectors.

The PCI DSS certification sets a high bar for protecting cardholder data during storage, processing, and transmission. With this milestone, Olla Systems joins a select group of technology providers meeting stringent global standards for data security and regulatory compliance, particularly in Nigeria’s fast-growing fintech, e-commerce, and digital banking sectors.

PCI DSS is a globally mandated standard designed to protect cardholder data during processing, storage, and transmission. Achieving this certification demonstrates that Olla Systems has implemented rigorous security controls, including network protection, data encryption, access management, monitoring, and vulnerability management , all designed to reduce risk and prevent data breaches.

The chief executive officer, Olla Systems, Mrs. Olusola Adenuga, in a press statement, said, with PCI DSS certification, the company is reinforcing its role as a trusted infrastructure partner for businesses that handle sensitive financial information like financial institutions, manufacturing companies, government entities, fast-growth startups and fintechs, among many others.

“It is not just about compliance, it is about providing peace of mind to our clients that their data is protected by globally accepted security best practices,” Adenuga affirmed.

The certification validates the company’s deployment of robust security controls such as end-to-end encryption, network protection, access management, threat monitoring, and vulnerability mitigation. These measures are designed to reduce risk, prevent data breaches, and ensure peace of mind for clients operating in high-risk environments.

It also enhances the appeal of OllaCloud, the company’s enterprise-grade cloud platform built specifically for regulated and security-conscious markets. Offering Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) across Nigeria, OllaCloud enables businesses to launch and scale secure, compliant digital operations, while paying in local currency.

“As we continue to support Africa’s digital economy, PCI DSS compliance helps us better serve organizations in need of infrastructure that meets both their growth ambitions and their regulatory responsibilities, and doing this while being able to pay in local currency,” Adenuga added.

The achievement comes at a time when cybersecurity threats and regulatory pressures are mounting across the continent. By aligning with international best practices, Olla Systems is positioning itself as a long-term infrastructure partner for clients seeking scalable, high-performance solutions with built-in security and compliance.

With a footprint that spans Africa and the Middle East, Olla Systems is providing locally relevant, globally trusted cloud and IT infrastructure that supports innovation while protecting critical data.
