MidlandHR achieves international information
security standard ISO27001
23-08-2006
|
MidlandHR is proud to announce that is has been recommended for the transition from BS7799-2 to the new international ISO27001 standard for its best-in-class Information Security Management System.
Certification to ISO27001 proves that MidlandHR has successfully demonstrated the required levels of control to protect the valuable assets and rights of individuals and customers, and of compliance to all applicable legislation.
The ISO27001 certification is a result of MidlandHR's continued commitment to providing a quality, professional and knowledgeable service to its customers. This is of utmost importance as the current and increasing degree of dependence on information systems and services means that organisations are potentially ever more vulnerable to security threats and failures. Particularly when it comes to employee data and confidentiality, there is no room for error.
Jacques Lomas, Associate Director for Quality and Security Management at MidlandHR, emphasises the value of ISO27001: "Independent research shows significant benefits for the clients of companies that have achieved certification. They are assured of best practice being employed in the area of information security and can therefore enjoy enhanced trading partner confidence."
