UKAD Achieves ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Certification

UKAD is proud to announce that we have achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification. ISO/IEC 27001:2022 standard is the foundation for the Information Security Management System (ISMS), guiding the policies, regulations, and procedures that all employees must follow to avoid information security breaches. This Certification clearly reflects that we take data protection, risk management, and the trust of UKAD clients seriously.

Achieving this Certification was no small feat. It took our team a full year of dedicated effort to align every internal process with the rigorous standards set by ISO/IEC 27001:2022. As a result, UKAD now operates under a unified, organization-wide framework that protects client data, strengthens risk management, standardizes internal processes, and reinforces our long-term commitment to operational excellence and trust.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 is the leading international standard for building a secure, well-structured Information Security Management System (ISMS). It helps organizations establish a unified, risk-aware management system by aligning people, processes, and technology to safeguard operations and ensure compliance.

At its core, ISO 27001 focuses on ensuring the integrity, confidentiality, and availability (often referred to as the CIA triad) of information protection.

• Confidentiality — Only authorized individuals can access sensitive information.

• Integrity — Data cannot be changed without proper permission.

• Availability — Information is reliably accessible when needed, even during disruptions.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification proves that an organization can systematically identify and manage information risks, ensure business continuity, and uphold the highest standards of trust. It's a mark of trust recognized globally.

This certification is a clear signal of UKAD’s commitment to doing things right — securely, consistently, and with your long-term success in mind. It means:

• Your data is handled under a globally vetted security framework.

• We're actively identifying and mitigating risks, not just reacting after problems occur.

• You're partnering with a company that prioritizes long-term resilience over short-term fixes.

We didn't take shortcuts. Our ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification process included:

1. Performing detailed risk assessments for each operational area

2. Introducing clear policies that govern how we handle, protect, and store data

3. Holding regular audits and internal reviews to spot vulnerabilities early

4. Implementing a secure hiring process with background checks, onboarding, and confidentiality agreements

5. Enforcing clear disciplinary measures and post-employment responsibilities to ensure long-term protection of sensitive information

6. Conducting regular information security risk assessments and continuously monitoring threats, assets, and vulnerabilities

7. Applying formalized risk treatment measures documented in our internal risk register and approved by UKAD's management

8. Enforcing strict mobile device policies covering access control, encryption, secure storage, remote work conditions, and incident response to ensure data remains protected on all endpoints

9. Enforcing health and safety protocols for both office and remote workers, including ergonomic guidelines, hazard reporting, and proper use of equipment

10. Defining clear roles, procedures, and automated tools for classifying, responding to, investigating, and learning from information security incidents to ensure rapid and effective resolution.

For customers, ISO 27001:2022, this achievement means:

• Fewer disruptions as a result of our robust business continuity planning

• Less risk of data loss or breaches during product development

• Faster delivery and onboarding as we streamline secure workflows

• Confidence in long-term collaboration with a tech partner that meets international security expectations

• Greater transparency into how your data is handled, with clearly defined policies and audit-ready documentation

• Clear accountability structures and designated information security roles reduce confusion and accelerate response when issues arise

• Simplified procurement and vendor assessment thanks to globally recognized compliance standards

• Improved readiness for legal, regulatory, or customer audits involving data security practices

• Assurance that our remote and hybrid work environments meet the same high security and safety standards as on-site operations

• Confidence that any incidents, if they occur, will be addressed quickly and methodically, with root cause analysis and preventative action plans

If your business operates in a regulated industry like fintech, healthcare, or e-commerce, our compliance can reduce your vendor risk and due diligence workload directly.
