Sicra AS has recently been awarded ISO27001 certification, an internationally recognized standard for information security.
This certification marks an important step forward for us and underscores our commitment to protecting both customer data and internal systems against potential threats and security risks.
For us, the certification is clear evidence that the company has a robust system in place to manage information security. This includes not only the protection of internal data but also a commitment to securing customers' sensitive information in a safe and reliable manner.
The certification is the result of extensive work where management has been closely involved in ensuring that all necessary processes and procedures were established and followed.
"We are proud to have this in place. This is a milestone for us, and it reflects our continuous commitment to delivering the highest quality and security to our customers," says Stig Valderhaug, CEO of Sicra AS.
To achieve the certification, we underwent a thorough process that included a detailed risk assessment and the implementation of security measures across the entire organization. This work involved both technical solutions such as encryption and access control, as well as organizational measures such as employee training and awareness. Furthermore, we have established continuous monitoring and audit processes to ensure that information security is not only maintained but continuously improved.
A key focus has been managing the risks associated with cybersecurity, an area that is increasingly important as the threat landscape evolves. This means that we have developed procedures to proactively identify and address potential threats, as well as handle any security incidents quickly and effectively.
The certification brings benefits to us, our customers, and our partners. With the ISO27001 certificate, we can offer our customers an additional guarantee that their sensitive data is handled in a secure and professional manner. This is especially important for customers in industries that handle large amounts of sensitive information, such as finance, healthcare, and the public sector.
We are not finished with the journey. We are committed to continuing to improve our security measures and processes to ensure that they always meet the high standards required by both customers and regulatory authorities.
"The certification is just the beginning. We are determined to continue our journey towards continuously improving information security in the company, and we will constantly evaluate our processes to stay updated on the latest threats and best practices," adds Stig Valderhaug.
We see the certification as proof of our dedication to information security and our willingness to meet the strictest international standards.
We hope the certification will help open doors for further growth and new opportunities, as more now require ISO 27001 as a minimum requirement for collaboration.
The ISO27001 certification gives us a competitive advantage and provides our customers with extra assurance that we take security seriously.
