How is applying for ISO certificates important from your point of view as the company CEO and in relation to the company’s field of activity?
From my perspective, pursuing ISO certifications underscores our commitment to upholding the highest information security standards. In our line of work, where we handle sensitive data daily, the ISO 27001 certification is more than just a badge because it shows our dedication to protecting our clients’ information and building a trusting relationship with them. A proactive approach to mitigating risks and installing robust security measures are fundamental to our operations and philosophy. After all, data security is paramount in our field.
How does ISO 27001 certification impact your customers?
We could say the certification gives them a boost of confidence in their marketing activities. With the assurance of protected data, they can also seamlessly meet their own compliance requirements and focus entirely on delivering meaningful messages and driving campaign success. In other words, they can focus on their core business activities without worrying about data breaches or security lapses due to email marketing.
How would you describe this journey, and what are the plans for the future?
The journey to achieving the ISO 27001 certification was quite challenging but tremendously rewarding. It required a thorough assessment of our existing processes, identifying areas for improvement, and implementing stringent security controls. It involved extensive training for our team, regular audits, and a cultural shift towards prioritizing information security in every aspect of our operations even more. Looking ahead, we plan to continuously enhance our security measures and stay updated with emerging threats. Our goal is to remain at the forefront of information security, providing our clients with unparalleled protection and a shared peace of mind.
