Everstake, the largest global non-custodial staking provider for institutional and retail clients, has achieved two new milestones in its security and compliance program: alignment with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (NIST CSF 2.0) and full compliance with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Together with existing SOC 2 Type II, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, and GDPR compliance, these achievements make Everstake the first crypto staking company to hold all five certifications that define institutional-grade infrastructure. The independent audits were conducted by Prescient Security, a global leader in cybersecurity assurance.
According to EY, 86% of institutional investors already have or plan to gain exposure to digital assets in 2025, with 35% exploring staking for yield, while 55% cite compliance as a key barrier to entering the crypto space. Everstake’s five-pillar certification framework bridges this gap, aligning staking with the same security and privacy standards trusted by global financial institutions.
Everstake has completed an independent NIST CSF assessment, with a Cybersecurity Maturity Score of 4.16. Global benchmarks indicate that only 4% of organizations worldwide achieve the “Optimized” level on NIST-aligned maturity scales, positioning Everstake among a select group recognized for its advanced, adaptive cybersecurity practices.
This accomplishment reaffirms Everstake’s ongoing investment in security, governance, and technology. A Level 4 score confirms that the company not only meets global standards but also proactively anticipates and adapts to emerging threats—enhancing resilience and institutional confidence.
The California Consumer Privacy Act compliance further strengthens Everstake’s data protection framework, bringing transparency, user rights, and privacy standards to the U.S.-based customers — complementing its GDPR protections for European users.
