AlgoSec attains ISO 27001 accreditation

The certification demonstrates AlgoSec’s commitment to protecting its customers’ and partners’ data

Data protection is a top priority for AlgoSec, proven by the enhanced security management system we have put in place to protect our customers’ assets. This commitment has been recognized by the ISO, who has awarded AlgoSec the ISO/IEC 27001 certification.

The ISO 27001 accreditation is a voluntary standard awarded to service providers who meet the criteria for data protection. It outlines the requirements for building, monitoring, and improving an information security management system (ISMS); a systematic approach to managing sensitive company information including people, processes and IT systems.

The ISO 27001 standard is made up of ten detailed control categories detailing information security, security organization, personnel security, physical security, access control, continuity planning, and compliance. To achieve the ISO 27001 certification, organizations must demonstrate that they can protect and manage sensitive company and customer information and undergo an independent audit by an accredited agency.

The benefits of working with an ISO 27001 supplier include:

• Risk management – Standards that govern who can access information.
• Information security – Standards that detail how data is handled and transmitted.
• Business continuity – In order to maintain compliance, an ISMS must be continuously tested and improved.

Obtaining the ISO 27001 certification is a testament to our drive for excellence and offers reassurance to our customers that our security measures meet the criteria set out by a global defense standard.
