Ideal Postcodes is proud to announce we are now ISO 27001 certified
As of 18th January 2022, we have been certified for ISO 27001. The certification verifies that Ideal Postcodes follows security best practices with our people and processes, meaning your data is safe with us.
This is something we have been working towards as a team. Being an address validation service, data passes through our systems. We’ve always been attentive about protecting this data by establishing uncompromising security standards and procedures.
ISO 27001 Certification
ISO 27001 is an internationally recognised standard addressing information security. ISO 27001 confirms that organisations are capable of securely storing data on behalf of their customers.
At Ideal Postcodes, securing our customer’s information has always been of paramount importance to us. This certification process involved an audit of how we establish, manage, implement, maintain security controls and protect company and client data to meet the best practices for an information security management system (ISMS). Some areas we covered for the ISMS:
-
Asset and document access control
-
Risk management
-
Staff training and development
-
Operations and systems security
-
Business continuity
-
Compliance
Why did we choose to complete the ISO 27001 certification?
The ISO 27001 certification is extremely respected in the tech and software industry. It ensures that businesses are safe, secure, private and following the correct security regulations.
We wanted to make sure that our security practices were the finest in our field. We also wanted our customers to feel comfortable knowing that working with us is secure and reliable.
Working with major enterprise companies that hold a lot of sensitive data, it was important for us to procure the ISO certification which helps to ensure compliance with enterprise systems and requirements.
What this means for our customers
Our customers can rest assured that their data is in good hands. The certification assures them that we always treat their data with integrity and confidentiality. Furthermore, any new IT infrastructures, employees, contractors etc will be evaluated thoroughly and must pass security checks to use our systems.
Our customers will continue to receive the same level of attention, transparency, punctuality, and quality that they’ve come to expect from us at Ideal Postcodes.
What this means for Ideal Postcodes
This is an important achievement for us. Our customers are the heart of our business and we believe trust is valuable in our relationships. With all our security processes in place, it is now easier for us to be vigilant and proactive in protecting our customer’s data.
"For Ideal Postcodes, achieving the ISO 27001 is a milestone in continuous improvement. We are constantly challenging ourselves to improve our services and provide the highest security and privacy standards to our customers, always complying with GDPR and other regulations."
