Jayce concluded;<\/p>\n \u201cWe are pleased to have gone through the ISO 27001 process as it has really enhanced our existing data security controls and processes.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n As more industries and suppliers realise the importance of ISO 27001 and the added data security<\/a> it provides, it has quickly upped the ranks as a prerequisite on tenders. Dave Sullivan, Managing Director at Mail Shark, confirmed this trend and the benefits the company have reaped as a consequence of achieving certification;<\/p>\n \u201cMore and more tenders are requiring certification to ISO 27001 and for certain contracts it is becoming a necessity. ISO 27001 is already improving the way our business operates and helped in attracting new clients and business as a direct result of certification. We expect ISO 27001 to open more doors to us in the future.\u201d\u00a0increasing their satisfaction levels.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div> The ISO 27001 Online Consultancy Service will have you ready for accredited certification to ISO 27001:2013 in just a few months.<\/p>\n You will be able to implement an ISMS (information security management system) and develop documentation that is suitably scaled to the size of your organisation.<\/p>\n<\/div>
\nMail Shark have long held a reputation for seeking the latest and most innovative technology to offer their clients the highest quality printing at the most competitive prices. With trusted brands such as Monsoon, Chestertons and Coca Cola in their care, ensuring robust data security is a must.<\/p>\n
\nOnce Mail Shark established the need for ISO 27001, they had to choose an appropriate ISO 27001 ISMS consultant to work with to obtain their certification. Jayce explains why ISMS ALLIANCE were the obvious choice for them;<\/p>\n<\/div>
\nFor Mail Shark clients, meeting the requirements of ISO 27001<\/a> further demonstrates that not only is information security taken seriously, but that everyone within the organisation is information security aware.<\/p>\n<\/div>ISO 27001 ISMS Consultancy<\/h2><\/a><\/div>
