We are pleased to announce that Confiz has successfully obtained ISO/IEC 27001:2013 re-certification, a globally recognized Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) standard.
At the core of ISO 27001:2013 is the systematic approach to managing sensitive information, ensuring its confidentiality, integrity, and availability. It encompasses policies, processes, procedures, and controls designed to manage information security effectively. This certification goes beyond a badge; it reflects Confiz’s dedication to safeguarding sensitive data.
This accomplishment would not have been possible without our exceptional team, consisting of Shumaila Khan, Associate Manager – Process Audit, Mahnoor Imtiaz, Process Audit Specialist, and Amir Khan, IT Head, who played a pivotal role in our successful re-certification process.
Shumaila Khan, who led the initiative, aptly summarized this achievement by saying: “Our team’s hard work and dedication have paid off with the successful re-certification of ISO 27001:2013. This accomplishment demonstrates our unwavering commitment to information security and our clients’ trust.”
The journey towards ISO 27001:2013 re-certification involved several crucial steps. Preparation was the first step, where our Process Audit team meticulously reviewed our Integrated Management System (IMS). We ensured that our objectives, scope, documents, and processes aligned seamlessly with ISO standards. This step set the stage for a successful certification journey.
Following preparation, we embarked on a comprehensive internal audit. Our Process Audit Team conducted thorough internal audits across all functional departments, including IT, People and Culture, Admin, Finance, and Legal Compliance. These audits were instrumental in assessing the effectiveness and compliance of our operations with ISO standards requirements.
An external audit conducted by an accredited certification body followed our internal assessments. This external audit objectively evaluated Confiz’s adherence to ISO standards and confirmed that our processes align with global best practices.
Based on the external audit results, the certification body granted Confiz its ISO certifications. ISO 27001:2013 is a powerful tool for organizations seeking to enhance their information security posture, manage risks effectively, and safeguard information. It aligns seamlessly with our overarching goal at Confiz – to consistently deliver excellence to our clients by ensuring the security and confidentiality of their sensitive information.
In an age where data breaches can have far-reaching consequences for businesses, including financial losses, this certification stands as a testament to Confiz’s exceptional risk management capabilities. Our proactive contingency plans, combined with robust asset management, bolster organizational resilience.
Moreover, it provides our clients with the assurance that their valuable data is not only handled with the utmost care and protection but also managed strategically to safeguard their critical assets.
Confiz remains dedicated to upholding the highest standards of information security and we look forward to continuously providing top-notch technology solutions to our clients worldwide while consistently improving our processes to ensure the highest levels of data integrity.
