Awaretrain Successfully Completes ISO27001 Recertification

In 2021, Awaretrain achieved its first ISO27001:2017 certification. We are proud to announce that we successfully passed the recertification for ISO27001:2022, upholding our commitment to top-tier information security standards. The certificate takes effect on November 16, 2024.

ISO27001 Recertification Process

An ISO27001 certificate is valid for three years. For Awaretrain, this meant that we could apply for recertification in 2024 to extend our certificate. Over the past three years, annual surveillance audits were conducted to ensure our continued compliance with these high standards. During the recertification process, a comprehensive evaluation of our Information Security Management System (ISMS) took place, and we are now proud to be ISO27001:2022 certified for the next three years.

What is ISO27001?

ISO27001 is a globally recognized quality standard for information security. Organisations aiming for this certification are expected to comply with high-level standards, such as the assessment of:

  • Policies and processes for information security
  • Risk management and risk assessments
  • Security awareness training for employees
  • How the organisation handles security incidents
  • Steps taken for the continuous improvement of information security

Difference between ISO 27001:2017 and ISO 27001:2022

Times change, and so do the versions of ISO 27001. The ISO 27001:2022 update has introduced significant changes compared to its 2017 predecessor. This new version features updated security measures to address modern challenges, a revamped control structure, and a heightened emphasis on current threats.

A Thank You to All Involved

Awaretrain would like to thank everyone involved in this recertification process.

We’d also like to share a special message of appreciation from Dennie Spreeuwenberg, CEO of Awaretrain: “I’m incredibly proud that, as a team, we’ve reached this fantastic milestone. For Awaretrain, the ISO certification is crucial because it allows us to truly practice what we preach, gain a deeper understanding of the challenges our clients face, and, of course, protect all the data we handle, including our customers’ personal information. This remains our top priority.”
