Following over a week of audit activity, we are delighted to announce that K2 has been recertified globally with ISO 27001:2022.
ISO 27001 and the Organisation behind it
The International Organisation of Standardisation (ISO) brings together experts to develop international standards that support innovation and provide solutions to global challenges. An independent organisation with a membership of 167 national standards bodies, the ISO provides a platform for developing practical tools to aid business operations.
Unprotected systems are vulnerable to information attacks, putting confidential data at risk. The ISO 27001:2022 certification ensures that the necessary controls and procedures are in place to protect the information of our clients, partners and employees. This certification also instigates a process of improvement: constant monitoring, updates and reviews reduce the chance of risk.
Feedback from K2’s Auditor
Everything within K2’s information security management system is in great shape. In summary, it is “comprehensive without being overly complicated or overblown”. Our management reviews are thorough, our internal audits are solid, and our risk analysis is good. Our teams, whom the Auditor described as “just marvellous”, clearly put a lot of hard work and effort into maintaining the system, which is a key reason for its robustness.
Peace of Mind for Clients
Clients can be confident that K2 is capable of delivering on its commitment to information security. Across access control, network security, data backup and recovery, incident management, and all other elements which sit within the InfoSec sphere, K2 protects the data that it is responsible for via a robust, centrally managed framework. What is more, clients can be confident that our approach to InfoSec is a proactive one: we are aware that the landscape of cybersecurity and cyberthreats is constantly shifting and evolving, therefore continuous improvement is required to ensure that our system remains as resilient tomorrow as it is today.
