The Importance of ISO Certifications
ISO 27001 and ISO 27701 are among the most recognized global standards for information security and data protection. Our ISO certifications are fundamental for us, as they are proof that we have the right measures in place to protect our customers’ data, provide reliable services, and continuously work on further enhancing our security efforts in an ever changing environment. Furthermore, they serve as a quality stamp on our data protection efforts.
ISO 27001 covers a wide range of information security measures, while ISO 27701 focuses on privacy and personal data, which is critical in light of GDPR.
Best Practices and Industry Standards
We follow the standards set by ISO 27001 and ISO 27701, ensuring comprehensive protection across organisational, technical, and physical domains.
Robust Security Framework with ISO 27001
ISO 27001 encompasses mandatory management controls, as well as further controls, which are grouped into four categories:
- Organisational controls
- People controls
- Physical controls
- Technological controls
Examples of these measures include ISMS policies, access control, backups, encryption, and awareness training.
Comprehensive Privacy Protection with ISO 27701
Building on ISO 27001, ISO 27701 introduces privacy-specific requirements for organisations acting as controllers and/or processors of personal data. Penneo adheres to both, ensuring lawful data processing, consent management, privacy by design and default, and efficient handling of data access, correction, and erasure requests.
Our customers’ require us to ensure confidentiality and the integrity of their data as well as a reliable service that ensures the availability of that same data. Also, since our customers are based within the EU and need to be GDPR compliant, they extend that requirement to their vendors and therefore need assurance about our compliance. ISO 27001 and 27701 make sure we at Penneo cover all those aspects that are so very important to our customers.
