Intrinsiq Insider – A Compliance Perspective Reaching ISO Standards

Welcome to another edition of ‘Intrinsiq Insider’. We have some fantastic news to share, so we are publishing two articles of the same series in consecutive weeks. The reason is that Intrinsiq has successfully met the ISO/IEC 27001:2022 standard, as demonstrated through a rigorous audit process. This recognition highlights our dedication to maintaining the highest standards of quality and service for our clients. 

What is ISO and Why is important? 

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is the only auditable international standard that defines the requirements for an Information Security Management System (ISMS), which is crucial for managing information security risks like cyber-attacks, hacks, data leaks, and theft. The focus of ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the information in a company. This standard promotes a universal approach to information security, including screening people, policies, and technology. By implementing an ISMS according to ISO/IEC 27001:2022, Intrinsiq can systematically identify, manage, and mitigate the severity of regular threats to their information. Certification to ISO/IEC 27001:2022 not only demonstrates a commitment to best-practice information security processes but also ensures the protection of information assets, reducing the likelihood of legal repercussions and loss of client trust due to data breaches. 

Unlocking the Advantages of ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Certification 

Gaining a Competitive Edge

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 compliance demonstrates robust security practices, enhancing client relationships and providing a competitive advantage. With ISO/IEC 27001:2022 compliance, education providers can confidently partner with us, trusting our commitment to secure their information. 

Protect and Enhance Your Reputation 

With the rising threat of cyber-attacks, an ISO/IEC 27001:2022-certified ISMS safeguards our organisation against potential damage, proving that we’ve taken essential measures to protect our business, but more importantly to make sure our clients’ data remains secure. 

Comply with Business, Legal, and Regulatory Requirements 

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 ensures that our security controls meet strict regulatory standards, helping us to comply with evolving legal and contractual requirements. 

Improve Structure and Focus

The ISO/IEC 27001:2022 standard clarifies information risk responsibilities, boosting productivity and enhancing decision-making, while reducing costs associated with mismanagement of information assets. 

Reduce the Need for Frequent Audits 

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification is globally recognised, reducing the necessity for repeated customer audits and minimising the time spent on external audit days. 

Obtain an Independent Opinion About our Security Posture 

Regular reviews and audits, both internal and external, provide an expert assessment of your ISMS, ensuring it delivers the required level of security to protect your organisation’s information. 

Intrinsiq chose to pursue ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certifications to reinforce our commitment to safeguarding client information and upholding the highest security standards. This certification not only strengthens our internal processes but also provides our clients with the assurance that their data is protected by internationally recognised best practices.
