BiP achieves security certification
19 June 2008
BiP Solutions has demonstrated that it can deliver a secure and reliable service to its clients across the public sector and maintain high standards across its broad range of key products and services by achieving the information security standard ISO 27001.
The certification covers the communication and dissemination of public sector contract information and supportive materials as well as the development of related software applications, the hosting of client web services, and event organisation, promotion and management.
Both information and the ICT systems that process and deliver information
are critical business assets. The security of these assets is highly valued
by BiP, and being awarded the ISO 27001 standard indicates that BiP is
working hard to protect its
information assets and following best practices to reduce information security
risks.
Grahame Steed, Production Director of BiP Solutions, said: “Achieving this security standard was important to BiP, since it will provide further assurance to our existing and future clients on the quality of BiP’s services. The ISO 27001 security standard is not granted lightly, and we are pleased to have secured this accreditation.”
