Raising the Bar: AssetWorks Achieves ISO 27001:2002 Certification

As cyber threats continue to evolve, protecting sensitive information has never been more critical. That's why we're proud to announce that AssetWorks Facilities (GoAssetWorks) has officially achieved ISO 27001:2022 certification – a global standard for information security management. This achievement underscores our unwavering commitment to staying ahead of evolving threats by continuously enhancing our security practices and earning the industry's most stringent certifications, including SOC2 and now the highly coveted ISO 27001.

What is ISO 27001? 

ISO 27001 is the internationally recognized standard for managing risks related to the security of information. It provides a framework to establish, implement, maintain, and continually improve an Information Security Management System (ISMS), ensuring that an organization has the right processes to protect data. 

By undergoing a rigorous external audit that evaluated every aspect of our security practices—from risk management to data protection and access control—our achievement of ISO 27001 certification demonstrates our ongoing commitment to safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our customers' data. 

Why This Matters  

With the increasing threats of data breaches and cyber-attacks, our customers need to trust that we are taking all possible precautions to secure their data.  

Top-Tier Data Security 

This certification confirms that our approach to data security follows best-in-class standards. We've implemented controls designed to identify and mitigate risks, ensuring that sensitive information remains secure from potential threats. 

Compliance with Global Standards 

ISO 27001 is recognized internationally, meaning our security measures meet the highest standards globally. This certification aligns with key regulatory frameworks, such as GDPR, HIPAA, and FERPA, enabling us to protect sensitive data and maintain compliance with both national and international requirements. By adhering to these standards, we can securely support academic research, student privacy, and institutional operations across diverse regions and regulatory landscapes.

Enhanced Trust and Confidence 

The ISO 27001 certification reassures that customer data is in safe hands. By undergoing regular audits and continuously focusing on improving our security, we've built a system of trust that is essential for our relationships. 

Proactive Risk Management 

Our proactive approach to information security helps us stay ahead of potential threats. The ISO 27001 framework guides us in identifying vulnerabilities before they can be exploited, enabling us to address risks quickly and effectively. 

Business Continuity and Reliability 

In today's fast-paced digital environment, business continuity is crucial. Our certification also ensures that we have systems in place to maintain operations and recover quickly in the event of a security incident or disaster. 

Looking Ahead

This accomplishment reflects our team's dedication to safeguarding your valuable data. We understand that trust is earned, and this certification reinforces our promise to uphold that trust by embedding security at the core of our organization.
