The award demonstrates ESW’s commitment to building a culture of security as ISO 27001, and the more recently developed ISO 27701, become the hallmark in information security management system (ISMS) certifications for multinational and Fortune 500 companies such as Microsoft, Verizon and Intel.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) provides world-class specifications for a vast range of products, materials, and processes. ESW was awarded the ISO 27001 and ISO 27701 certification for its development and implementation of security and privacy policy, and the deployment of effective internal security and privacy practices to protect company and customer data.
ISO 27001 specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, and continually improving an information security management system within the context of the organisation. Where 27001 focused on security, ISO 27701 standard provides an overarching framework on Privacy Information Management Systems (PIMS), and is designed to ensure organisations have the robust processes and systems in place to manage and protect personal data.
