At EmployeeConnect, security is not just a priority—it is the foundation upon which we build trust with our customers. We are proud to announce that we have achieved the globally recognised ISO 27001 certification, a milestone that underscores our unwavering commitment to safeguarding sensitive data and continuously enhancing our security posture.
What is ISO 27001?
ISO 27001 is the international standard for information security management systems (ISMS). Developed by the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), this certification establishes a framework for managing and protecting information assets. It ensures that businesses implement best practices in risk management, cybersecurity, and data protection.
Achieving ISO 27001 certification means that EmployeeConnect has undergone rigorous evaluations and audits to verify our compliance with stringent security standards. This certification is not just a one-time achievement; it requires ongoing commitment, regular assessments, and a culture of continuous improvement.
Why Security Matters More Than Ever
In today’s digital landscape, data breaches and cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Organizations that handle sensitive information, such as HR and payroll data, must adopt stringent security measures to protect their clients from evolving threats.
At EmployeeConnect, we understand the critical role of data security in the HR technology space. Our clients entrust us with confidential employee records, payroll details, compliance documents, and much more. The ISO 27001 certification reaffirms our promise to maintain the highest security standards, ensuring that our customers’ data is protected against unauthorised access, data breaches, and cyber threats.
How ISO 27001 Benefits Our Clients
