Security and Privacy Assurance (SSPA) program represents a critical compliance
benchmark for vendors and suppliers. As a trusted partner in your compliance
journey, Amplework Software offers comprehensive services to ensure your

Understanding Microsoft SSPA
The SSPA initiative is designed to standardize and elevate the security and
privacy practices of Microsoft’s suppliers. By adhering to the Data Protection
Requirements (DPR), suppliers demonstrate their commitment to protecting
sensitive information, aligning with Microsoft’s commitment to data privacy and
security compliances. Compliance with SSPA is mandatory for all suppliers handling Microsoft
data, ensuring that every link in the supply chain contributes to a secure and
trustworthy ecosystem.
Why SSPA Matters
Compliance with Microsoft’s SSPA program is not just about fulfilling contractual
obligations; it’s about embodying a culture of security and privacy that matches
Microsoft’s high standards. Achieving SSPA compliance signifies to your clients

measures, setting you apart in the competitive tech industry.
