One Mortgage System (OMS) has been granted ISO 27001 certification, showing its ongoing commitment to maintaining high standards of security for users.
The International Organization for Standardisation (ISO) is a global body that collects and manages various standards for different disciplines, providing an approach for firms to manage and protect sensitive information.
OMS began the certification process in September 2023, during which time it developed more than 150 new policies and procedures which are now embedded into the business at all levels.
The certification process involved an assessment conducted by the British Standards Institute (BSI), an accreditation body known for its evaluation criteria and gold star accreditation.
Neal Jannels (pictured), managing director of OMS, said: “Achieving ISO 27001 certification represents a serious undertaking but is one which demonstrates our proactive approach to implementing rigorous information security controls and practices to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive data.
“These important processes help build trust among clients and stakeholders, reassuring them that their information is safeguarded against potential threats and provides tangible proof of our ongoing dedication to maintaining the highest standards of security throughout our system.”
