ISO 27001, ISO 27701, and ISO 29151 are internationally-recognized gold standards developed by ISO and IEC that outline best practices for information security and privacy management. ISO 27001 provides best practice advice and guidance on implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an information security management system (ISMS) to mitigate security risks and protect information assets.It is complemented by ISO 27701, which extends the standard into a privacy information management system (PIMS), providing guidelines on protecting personal data and ensuring compliance with data protection regulations. Additionally, ISO 29151 is the universal standard on personal identifiable information (PII) protection, specifying security control measures and risk handling guidelines.
To qualify for the ISO certifications, Amber Group underwent a thorough independent audit of its security controls conducted by DNV GL, the accredited international certification body. The audit validates the effective operationalisation of security controls that have been designed and implemented in compliance with the required standards for ongoing information security management. Amber Group has not only adopted the data security framework in actual management but also implemented the most efficient and relevant technologies to ensure data security across all critical operation touchpoints, including data classification, PII encryption and protection, separation of duties and responsibilities, and endpoint security management.
