6clicks is excited to announce we have received official ISO certification of our Information Security Management System (ISMS) encompassing software platform and service for risk assessment, risk management, and compliance. 

 

 

 

What is the ISO 27001 certification?

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO), is an independent, international organization that sets globally recognized standards including those for security and safety. In particular, the ISO 27001 certification ensures an organization operates industry-standard practices for information security.

As such, this requires a company to establish a formal Information Security Management System (ISMS) to ensure the appropriate handling of sensitive information such as internal and customer information on an ongoing basis.

‘Information security is an issue we feel strongly about at 6clicks. As we continue to expand our global presence, data security and the protection of our customer data will remain our utmost priority’ said 6clicks CEO, Anthony Stevens.

He added, ‘what better way is there to demonstrate our commitment and reinforce our beliefs in strong data security as a company?
