Expanded certification validates SDL's commitment to customer data security
Wakefield, MA and Maidenhead, UK - February 9, 2016 - SDL (LSE: SDL) today announced that it has increased the scope of its ISO27001 certification by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to include three additional solutions - SDL Web, SDL Knowledge Center and SDL Campaigns. Prior to these, SDL's Language technology, SDL WorldServer received the certification in October of 2015, joining the ranks of SDL Translation Management System (TMS). Continuing to certify each solution demonstrates SDL's commitment to delivering top level information security to consumers and achieving the highest standards for data security and privacy.
"We are proud to announce this recent scope expansion as we know our customers' number one concerns center around security and privacy," said Jan Wiersma, VP of Global Cloud Services & Operations at SDL. "This global designation puts SDL among an elite group of technology vendors who are leading the market in achieving these certifications. We truly believe that our customers should be at the center of our business decisions, and with that, ensuring customer peace of mind around data and IT security is of utmost importance to our organization."
As the highest standard of IT security concerning customer data, the ISO27001 certification process requires validation from a third party to prove full compliance. For SDL, Lloyds Register conducted a formal audit of all documentation and facilities prior to extending the certification to SDL's technology. Once certification is achieved, SDL must continuously improve and meet updated guidelines by ISO, as Lloyds Register will audit the organization three times each year to validate compliance. With this certification, global organizations can have confidence that the full breathe and lifecycle of SDL's technology - from development to implementation to integration - are protected by world-class standards.
