ISO/IEC 27701 certification

It enables organizations to demonstrate their ability to manage, protect and govern personal data in compliance with the requirements of the RGPD and associated international regulations.

Implementation of organizational and technical measures proportionate to risks.
Structured management of data subject rights (access, rectification, opposition, portability).
Traceability, documentation and accountability.

The standard builds on ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27002, and introduces additional controls dedicated to the protection of personal data.
