INTERNATIONAL SOS ACHIEVED CERTIFICATION FOR INFORMATION SECURITY MANAGEMENT
London
ISO/IEC 27001:2013 demonstrates commitment to security best practices for customer data
International SOS, the world’s leading medical and travel security services company, has achieved certification to ISO/IEC 27001:2013 for Information Security Management.
The certificate acknowledges that all of International SOS’ digital products, including their flagship TravelTracker, Assistance App, TravelReady, and Communications Portal, are developed and supported in compliance with the requirements of ISO/IEC 27001:2013.
Gregoire Pinton, COO of Assistance at International SOS, said:
“ISO 27001:2013 is globally recognised as the benchmark certification to demonstrate best practice in the application and management of security for information systems. Achieving this certification demonstrates our commitment to safeguard customer and partner data.”
ISO/IEC 27001:2013 specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an information security management system. Certification to the standard indicates the company’s information security management system is integrated with the organisation’s processes and overall management structure and that information security is considered in the design of processes, information systems, and controls. BSI (British Standards Institution) conducted the independent audit.
International SOS has achieved compliance to a number of ISO standards as part of its continuous quality improvement programme, including global certification across all International SOS business lines to ISO 9001:2008 for our integrated Quality Management System. It’s Assistance Centre in London was the first service platform in the world to be certified in the delivery of telehealth services (ISO/TS 13131:2014 ED1).
International SOS provides medical and travel security services 24/7/365 to clients working and travelling aboard. For more information about International SOS’ Quality Programme, visit https://www.internationalsos.com/about-us/quality.
