KS&R Announces ISO 27001 Certification

Syracuse, NY, October 23, 2020 --(PR.com)-- ISO 27001 is an international standard on how to manage information security. It specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an information security management system within the context of the organization. It also includes requirements for the assessment and treatment of information security risks tailored to the needs of the organization (iso.org).

KS&R Director of IT, Paul Scott, notes, “Certification requires an in-depth audit of all of the security practices the company follows and looks in detail at the procedures the company uses and the training their staff undergoes to ensure the standard is being met.”

Joe Snyder, Vice President and Principal, adds, “By certifying our information security management system, KS&R is demonstrating that we are dedicated to meeting the data security needs of our customers who entrust KS&R with their data.
