Ensuring Trust and Security with ISO 27001 and 27017

In an era where data lies at the heart of technological advancements, the security of information has become a paramount concern for businesses and individuals alike. At EasyLife 365, safeguarding our customer data and ensuring a secure environment are critical objectives. We are thrilled to announce that we have taken a significant leap in this direction by achieving ISO 27001 and ISO 27017 certifications on February 18, 2024.

Upholding Security Standards: Microsoft 365 Certification

Our journey towards bolstering security began in 2022 when we obtained the Microsoft 365 Certification for our flagship app, EasyLife 365. This certification assures our customers that the application has undergone rigorous evaluation against controls derived from industry-standard frameworks, signifying the implementation of robust security and compliance practices to safeguard customer data.

The successful renewal of the Microsoft 365 Certification in 2023 served as a testament to our commitment to maintaining and enhancing our security measures. We are committed in certifying all our applications with the Microsoft 365 certification. However, we recognized the need for more comprehensive and internationally recognized standards to further strengthen our security posture.

Advancing Security with ISO 27001 and ISO 27017 Certification

In pursuit of our commitment to excellence, we decided to introduce ISO 27001 and ISO 27017 certifications. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) sets these standards, and achieving compliance signifies our adherence to globally recognized best practices in information security management and cloud services security.

The transformation journey required meticulous documentation and adaptation to the stringent requirements of ISO 27001 and ISO 27017. After months of dedicated effort, we successfully obtained both certifications on February 18, 2024. This achievement is a significant milestone, allowing us to proudly showcase our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of security.

Why ISO 27001 and ISO 27017 Matter for Our SaaS Customers?

1. Robust Information Security Management: ISO 27001 focuses on information security management systems (ISMS), providing a systematic approach to managing sensitive company information, ensuring its confidentiality, integrity, and availability. By obtaining this certification, we demonstrate our dedication to implementing and maintaining a robust ISMS, instilling confidence in customers about the security of their data.

2. Cloud Service Security Assurance: ISO 27017 specifically addresses cloud service security, outlining additional controls and guidelines tailored for cloud service providers. This certification assures our SaaS customers that we have implemented industry best practices in securing their cloud-based services, ensuring the integrity and privacy of data stored in the cloud.

3. Building Trust Through Compliance: For our SaaS customers, trust is paramount. ISO 27001 and ISO 27017 certifications serve as external validations of our commitment to stringent security standards. By adhering to these international benchmarks, we establish a foundation of trust, assuring customers that their data is handled with the utmost care and security.
