ISO 27001 – Your information is safe and secure with us

We are proud to announce the news that we continue to be an IS0 27001 certified company for a further 12 months.

Recently, we had our annual surveillance visit from an external UKAS certification body, which involved a two day audit at Auros HQ, checking that our working practices are in line with our ISMS (Information Security Management System).

After a rigorous two days of checks and inspections, we were greeted with the news that we would continue to be certified.

This is our second year of being an ISO 27001 certified company, however the roots of our ISMS stem back to early 2009 when we began the process of formalising our working practices in relation to information security. In a nutshell, the point of our ISMS is to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our physical and information assets. We continually look to improve the way we work and the service we provide and continued ISO accreditation is a great endorsement of our efforts.

Behind the scenes it’s very simple and makes use of pre existing functionality in EPiServer and the membership/role provider model.
