At BrightMarbles Group Holding (BMGH), we put our customers’ and employees’ security first. This is how we earn and maintain our customers’ trust.
That’s why we’re especially proud to announce that our group received an ISO 27001 certification — a rigorous international certification that demonstrates our commitment to maintaining and protecting information security.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, global organization that sets the standards for security and safety. In short, ISO consults experts all over the world to create norms that define what excellence looks like.
ISO 27001 (officially referred to as ISO/IEC 27001) is a part of the ISO 27000 family of standards, all related to information security best practices. Basically, ISO 27001 certification requires a company to have a documented information security management system (ISMS) that protects information confidentiality, integrity, and availability. An ISMS is a set of rules governing how data is managed, accessed, and secured. To be ISO 27001 certified, an organization must prove the existence and implementation of an ISMS that meets specific industry standards.
To achieve the ISO 27001 certification, organizations must demonstrate a systematic and documented approach to protecting and managing sensitive company and customer information, including intellectual property, employee and customer data, financial information, and information entrusted to them by third parties.
Following an extensive audit by ISOQAR, this certification confirms that BMGH meets the highest standards for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving its information security management system (ISMS).
BMGH uses Secfix’s automated platform to continuously monitor its internal security controls against the highest possible standards. With Secfix, BMGH has real-time visibility across the organization to ensure our systems’ end-to-end security and compliance posture.
As more enterprises look to process sensitive and confidential business data with cloud-based services like BMGH, it’s critical that they do so to ensure their data remains safe. Our customers carry this responsibility on their shoulders every single day. That’s why it’s crucial that their chosen vendors process their data in the cloud with the same care and commitment.
