ebb3's Attainment of ISO 27001:2022 Underscores Vital Importance for Organisations in Safeguarding Sensitive Data and Mitigating Cyber Risk
27/02/2024 - ebb3 proudly announces its attainment of the ISO 27001:2022 certification. Having retained ISO 2001:2013 since their first year of operations, becoming one of the early UK adopters of the new standard was an important milestone for the company.
ISO 27001:2022 is an internationally recognised standard for information security management systems (ISMS), offering comprehensive guidelines for implementing, maintaining, and enhancing ISMS frameworks. It provides organisations with a systemic approach to managing sensitive company information, ensuring its confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
By adhering to ISO 27001:2022, organisations can effectively identify, assess, and mitigate information security risks, thereby instilling confidence in stakeholders and enhancing overall business resilience.
For modern enterprises and public sector organisations, the importance of ISO 27001 cannot be overlooked. With cybercrime on the rise and new threats constantly emerging, it can seem difficult or even impossible to manage cyber-risks. ISO 27001:2022 helps organisations become risk-aware and proactively identify and address weaknesses.
It provides a structured approach to granting access to approved users while maintaining stringent controls to prevent unauthorised access or data breaches. This balance between security and accessibility is vital for modern enterprises and public sector organisations.
The ISO 27001:2022 certification is a comprehensive evaluation conducted by an accredited certification body to assess an organisation’s ISMS against the requirements outlined in the ISO 27001:2022 standard.
For ebb3, this process involved thorough scrutiny of its policies, procedures, and controls related to information security. The audit encompassed various stages, including a full review of compliance documents, a four-day on-site inspection, and interviews with key personnel to ensure compliance with ISO 27001:2022 criteria.
Throughout the certification process, ebb3’s InfoSec team collaborated closely with auditors, providing transparent access to relevant documentation, and actively participating in the assessment process. This collaborative approach facilitated a thorough examination of ebb3’s ISMS, ultimately leading to the successful attainment of the ISO 27001:2022 certification.
“We are thrilled to have achieved the ISO 27001:2022 certification. Receiving this certification validates the effectiveness of our information security management system and our ongoing efforts to continually improve our processes.
“This accomplishment is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team members, who have demonstrated their expertise and commitment to excellence throughout the certification process.
