The Wired Score certification is a rating system for office real estate which ensures transparency regarding the digital infrastructure and connectivity of office real estate and allows for comparisons to be drawn. There are five certification levels: Non-certified, Certified, Silver, Gold, Platinum. These are based on a standardised international combination of a points-based model and various minimum criteria per certification rating adapted in line with local market conditions. In addition to a rating for the internet connectivity, points are awarded for data protection, the reliability of the infrastructure, tenant- and user-friendliness, as well as the flexibility of the building for new technologies.
