Key aspects of ISO 27001 include:
- Policy development and documentation: Clear guidelines for handling data, maintaining compliance, and achieving security objectives.
- Risk management: Identifying and mitigating security risks through systematic processes.
- Access control: Enforcing role-based access and multi-factor authentication to prevent unauthorized access.
- Continuous improvement: Regular audits and updates to address new security challenges.
- Incident response: Defined procedures for handling security incidents, including recovery plans to maintain operational continuity.
By achieving ISO 27001 certification, absentify demonstrates its commitment to protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of customer data.
What is the Microsoft 365 App certification?
