Katalysys achieves ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certification
Katalysys is delighted to announce that we have achieved ISO 9001:2015 (ISO 9001) and BS EN ISO/IEC 27001:2017 (ISO 27001) certification, after a successful audit conducted by external auditors accredited to UKAS (the sole national accreditation body recognised by UK Government).
ISO 9001 requires us to establish a quality management system (QMS) and demonstrates Katalysys' capability to deliver services and solutions in a consistent manner to our clients. ISO 9001 helps us to implement clear, repeatable processes to maintain a quality service for our customers every time. It helps us to continually monitor and manage quality across our business and identify areas for improvement.
ISO 27001 requires us to form an information security management system (ISMS), validating a systematic way of managing sensitive information and maintaining security. Officially known as the ISO/IEC 27001 Information Security Management standard, it details the requirements to securely manage information assets and data to an internationally recognised standard. It provides a robust approach for managing assets such as customer and employee details, intellectual property, financial information and third-party data. It requires us to assess information security risks, put in place robust security controls and processes, and embed information security management across the organisation.
We are extremely proud of this achievement as it validates our commitment to good governance, continuous improvement and information security, and we look forward to continuing to serve our clients and employees with the highest quality and security standards.
