Altenar has been successful in gaining the full recertification of the new ISO 27001:2022 standard, highlighting its commitment to information security, risk management, and compliance with regulations. Not only does this recertification validate the company’s present security procedures, but it also highlights its ongoing efforts to adapt to developing threats in the digital age. With this recertification, Altenar continues to demonstrate its commitment to safeguarding client data and maintaining the highest security standards.
Expansion of Scope to South Africa and South America
In the process of recertification, Altenar has also expanded its ISO 27001 scope to cover new regions in South Africa and South America, alongside the newly included entity, Agreegain Limited. The move aligns with Altenar’s vision of offering greater security to a larger client base while ensuring that sensitive information is processed with the highest possible protection standards.
ISO 27001:2022 – The Full Information Security Solution
ISO 27001 is a global standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS), which provides a general methodology for organizations to control risk, protect sensitive data, and maintain regulatory compliance. The 2022 revision introduced major changes to address new threats and the complexity of the modern digital world. The revisions revolve around implementing effective controls and continuous risk assessment to counter evolving cybersecurity threats effectively.
New Controls and Enhanced Risk Management
New controls within the updated ISO 27001 standard address new threats of interest, such as threat intelligence to detect threats in advance, data leakage prevention and data masking controls, and web filtering technologies for blocking unauthorized access. These new controls point to a proactive and dynamic approach to risk management through continuous assessment and mitigation of potential threats by organizations. In addition, the incorporation of data masking features provides security against data leaks, with threat intelligence features enabling companies to anticipate and disable probable attacks more effectively.
Altenar’s recertification was a comprehensive, third-party evaluation of its controls, processes, and policies to ensure full compliance with the ISO 27001:2022 standard. The company’s stringent evaluation is a testament to its dedication to having good security practices at every level of operation. By successfully passing the audit, Altenar not only reaffirmed its commitment to security but also demonstrated its ability to evolve with the dynamic landscape of information security.
Commitment to Security and Compliance
Altenar Director of Information Security, Denise Vella, was delighted to declare the company’s fourth consecutive year of ISO 27001 certification, following the dedication of the team to security. “Security is at the heart of everything we do at Altenar as a result of the relentless efforts of our dedicated security team,” explained Vella. “Protecting our clients’ data is something we do every day, and this certification is a testament to our commitment to security, compliance, and trust.”
