Coretek are very proud to announce that we are now officially ISO 27001 certified!<\/p>\n

This puts us amongst an elite group of IT Managed Service Providers who are ISO 9001 certified, ISO 27001 certified and have been established for over two decades.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is ISO 27001?<\/h2>\n

ISO are the International Organisation for Standardisation, and they are widely considered to provide the gold standard of business standards across the world.<\/p>\n

ISO 27001 is the standard that specifically relates to Information Security.<\/p>\n

This standard ensures that best practice is followed when managing your and your client’s data and minimising risks.<\/p>\n

If your organisation stores or processes any information including financial information, intellectual property, employee details or third-party data, ISO 27001 is designed to keep this as safe as possible.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Why should I care about ISO 27001?<\/h2>\n

Do you care about keeping your company data secure? Of course, you do! It’s a loaded question but many organisations know it’s important to keep their data secure but don’t really know where to start.<\/p>\n

Working with an expert in information security such as a consultancy or IT Managed Service Provider is a good start. But how do you know they are following best practices to keep your information safe?<\/p>\n

ISO 27001 can help. By achieving certification, it shows that the certified business follows a clear set of guidelines when managing information including risk management, access control, physical protections, technical protections, and more. Cyber-attacks are becoming more prevalent and following a clear set of standards is a key tool in protecting your business. As an ISO 27001 certified business, we are doing everything we can to protect your data and to provide you with the best information security advice.<\/p>\n

To achieve (and retain) certification, we are audited on a regular basis by an external auditor such as BSI. This helps provide confidence that the standard is being adhered to correctly.<\/p>\n

In summary – as a client of ours, you can rest assured that your data is being stored and managed in the most secure way.<\/p>\n
