What are ISO Certifications?
ISO stands for the International Organization for Standardization, a global body of experts that develops international standards to ensure quality management systems across industries.
In the context of cybersecurity, ISO certifications – like ISO 27001 – focus on information management and security.
To achieve ISO 27001 certification, a provider must demonstrate that their Information Security Management System (ISMS) meets strict standards. An accredited ISO body will audit the system to confirm it meets the required standards. If all standards are met, the provider receives ISO 27001 certification, distinguishing them from competitors and making them a top choice for businesses seeking robust security solutions.
Why is ISO Certification Important for a Cyber Security Provider?
For cybersecurity specialists like Netcentrix, ISO certification may not add new capabilities, but it serves as a powerful validation of expertise.
Certification from a globally respected organization provides added assurance to businesses looking for top-tier cybersecurity services.
While reviews and referrals are useful, an ISO certification can make a significant difference when choosing your cybersecurity partner. It’s a guarantee that the provider has met international standards for security, helping you make a more informed decision.
What Different Types of ISO Certification Should My Cyber Security Provider Have?
Cybersecurity providers may hold different ISO certifications depending on their specific strengths and focus areas. Here are the most important certifications to look for:
ISO 27001 – Information Security Management
ISO 27001 demonstrates a provider’s commitment to safeguarding your sensitive data. It’s more than just a certificate – it shows that your cybersecurity provider knows how to manage security risks and is dedicated to keeping your business safe.
ISO 22301- Business Continuity Management
ISO 22301 ensures that businesses can continue operating even in the face of unexpected disruptions. This certification covers risk identification, recovery planning, and business continuity processes.
At Netcentrix, we hold this certification, meaning we’re equipped to help your business stay operational during crises, including providing disaster recovery services.
ISO 9001- Quality Management
ISO 9001 focuses on a company’s ability to meet customer expectations while complying with regulatory requirements. This certification applies to industries like IT, healthcare, and construction, and is just as important for cybersecurity providers. The principles behind ISO 9001 – customer focus, leadership, and continuous improvement – align perfectly with effective cybersecurity strategies.
ISO 45001- Health and Safety Management
ISO 45001 highlights a provider’s ability to manage occupational health and safety, including both physical and mental health. For cybersecurity providers, this certification ensures that health and safety records are safeguarded against cyber threats, offering protection not just from online risks, but also from physical ones.
