SYDNEY, Australia - Unleash live, one of the world’s leading AI video analytics platforms, announces that it has secured ISO 27001 Certification.
This recognizes the importance of Unleash live in protecting our customer data at all times and helps us maintain our security culture. It demonstrates to our customers that our standards are consistent with global industry best practices.
What is ISO 27001?
Developed by the leading information security experts in the world, ISO 27001 regulates information security management within companies, ensuring that data is kept both available and protected.
It specifies a formal system of controls known as the Information Security Management System (ISMS), which details precise requirements that are then audited to certify compliance by Unleash live. In particular, the standard requires the examination of Unleash live’s information security risks and drives us to design and implement safeguards to prevent such risks from occurring. We have then adopted a comprehensive management process to maintain these controls continuously.
Achieving this certification means that we have an official testament that information security is of the utmost importance to Unleash live and that we handle and protect sensitive data with great care and confidentiality. It demonstrates that we are proactive in our attention to data security threats and employ best practices to minimize them. From the commencement of our engagement, it will also allow our future customers to rest assured that their security concerns are our security concerns.
ISO 27001 requires ongoing annual audit activities to monitor compliance and ensure that, as Unleash live grows, we maintain and evolve our processes to address our customers’ needs and new threats in the security landscape.
Why Unleash live has secured ISO 27001 Certification
In addition to clearly demonstrating our commitment to information security:
- ISMS significantly reduces the likelihood of any security breach, increasing customer confidence;
- In the rare case of a breach occurring, our robust ISMS reduces the disruption and keeps costs to a minimum;
- Where our potential customers require certification as a prerequisite, Unleash live secures a faster review of its offers;
- ISMS reduces the time, cost, and general necessity of customer/ supply chain audits and
- As privacy legislation grows, adopting ISMS enables Unleash live to adhere to the legal requirements efficiently.
The certification process
This is the result of a process rooted in how we have always conducted our business: our constant attention to detail and uncompromising drive to deliver top-quality software solutions led to the development of highly standardized procedures and facilitated a smooth adoption of ISMS.
Nevertheless, the process requires a detailed review of all company procedures by external consultants and impacts our complete business. Our employees are reminded of our necessary security measures and appreciate that their roles are all vital in this aspect of our business: it has strengthened our internal organization, increased transparency, and reduced time wastage.
