Guardhouse Achieves ISO Certification

Blog

June 4, 2024

At Guardhouse, we’re committed to delivering the highest standards of quality and security through our workforce management solution. As part of our commitment to the privacy of your data, Guardhouse now holds a ISO 27001 Certification – the world's best-known standard for information security management systems (ISMS).  

What is ISO Certification?

ISO (International Organisation for Standardisation) is an independent, non-governmental international organisation that develops and publishes standards to ensure the quality, safety, efficiency, and interoperability of products and services. ISO certification is a seal of approval from a third-party organisation that a company complies with one of the international standards developed and published by ISO.

The ISO certification that Guardhouse holds – ISO 27001 – focuses on information security management systems (ISMS), a provides a framework for managing sensitive company and customer information, ensuring data security and integrity.

Why is it important?

The ISO 27001 certification is essential in a time where data breaches and cyber threats are prevalent, especially when it comes to a workplace management system that holds sensitive information. Holding this certification means that for Guardhouse clients, there is reduced risk of data breaches, enhanced information security, and total compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. It also tells customers that we have more than adequate security measures in place to protect their information.

ISO 27001 also helps organisations become risk-aware, proactively identifying and addressing weaknesses before they become an issue. This certification looks at information security from a holistic perspective, and guarantees that an information security management system – like Guardhouse – implemented according to this standard is an essential tool for cyber-resilience and operational excellence.

For our clients and partners, it means working with a trusted and reliable provider dedicated to meeting the highest standards of information security.
