QX’s Skipton office obtains ISO 27001 certification for Information Security Management Systems

Today we are pleased to announce that we’ve turned our commitment to information security up a notch by obtaining the ISO 27001 certification of Information Security Management Systems for our Skipton office.

QX Ltd delivery centers in India have been independently audited and are ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 (quality management systems) certified for years now. You can find out more about our commitment here.

This audit follows close on the heels of the recent addition of Cyber Essentials to our security arsenal. Cyber Essentials is a UK government backed cyber security certification scheme, which when implemented correctly can prevent 80% of cyber-attacks.

What does ISO 27001 mean for you?

Put simply, it means our information security processes have been recognised as being of the highest standard (we got 100% compliance), that we’re committed to the safety and quality of our processes, products and services, and that we understand our clients’ concerns and ensure data is guarded at the highest level.

As part of our accreditation the auditor was particularly impressed by our:

  • Controls monitoring plan
  • Internal audit methods
  • Top management commitment
  • Staff competency
  • Risk assessment and treatment methodologies
