Is your people data vendor an ISO-certified company? Find out why a 27001-2022 certification is crucial for your data security and peace of mind.
We’re celebrating! One Model is an ISO-certified company and has recently completed the latest certification: 27001:2022.
What does it mean to be ISO certified?
ISO certification provides voluntary third-party validation that a company's internal systems align with internationally recognized standards for quality and consistency. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO), a non-governmental entity responsible for developing and publishing these standards, ensures that businesses worldwide adhere to best practices.
ISO compliance provides a structured approach to identifying, managing, and reducing information security risks. It helps organizations systematically assess threats and vulnerabilities and implement appropriate controls to mitigate them.
Achieving ISO 27001:2022 certification is no small feat.
This rigorous process involves comprehensive audits, meticulous documentation, and a thorough evaluation of an organization's information security management system (ISMS).
It's not just about ticking boxes but ensuring every aspect of data security is up to international standards. This certification demonstrates a commitment to continuous improvement and accountability in managing sensitive information.
For people analytics vendors, being ISO certified means they are dedicated to protecting your data with the highest level of security. It’s a clear signal that they are serious about maintaining robust data protection practices, giving you peace of mind that your information is in safe hands.
Don’t be fooled. Your people analytics vendor may claim to follow ISO 27001 standards or they may even be certified – but with an earlier version (27001:2013).
The absence of a current certification may lead you to think that it doesn’t matter…
- It’s just a cherry on top of your data security, and not all that critical.
- Not much has changed in cyber fraud in the 9 years since the previous certification.
- If it was really important, they WOULD have it (and maybe even brag about it)
The fact is, cyber fraud is ramping up exponentially. Now, simply being certified to the most current standard (27001:2022) may not even be enough. A certification may only cover a single system within their organization. To safeguard security effectively, it's imperative to demand certification that encompasses the entire organizational scope, leaving no room for ambiguity or vulnerability.
While it’s not required for ISO certification, if you’re really taking security seriously, it’s good to know whether or not your people analytics vendor’s Information Security Officer is a Certified Information Software Security Professional (CISSP), which is the gold standard in cybersecurity certifications.
We think passing the rigorous verification process is a big deal and we’re proud to say One Model has recently completed the challenging ISO 27001:2022 certification!
