ISO 27001 Compliance and Secure PLM Software
What Is ISO 27001?
ISO 27001 is a globally recognized standard for information security. Created by the International Organization for Standardization, it provides a framework for managing risks across people, processes, and technology.
This approach ensures companies do more than use tools. They also manage risks, train employees, and build a culture of security.
How Companies Achieve ISO 27001 Certification
ISO 27001 compliance is not a simple checklist, it is a structured process:
- Implement an ISMS: Companies must build an Information Security Management System that meets ISO 27001 standards.
- Provide Documentation. Brands must record and make processes and security controls auditable.
- Undergo Third-Party Audits: Independent auditors confirm that the system meets requirements.
- Maintain Ongoing Compliance: Certification lasts three years and requires yearly surveillance audits.
This process proves a long-term commitment to information security.
Why ISO 27001 Certification Matters
When evaluating software vendors, certification is proof of security. ISO 27001 compliance shows that your partner:
- Protects intellectual property and confidential data.
- Reduces risks of data breaches and cyberattacks.
- Meets regulatory and industry requirements.
- Embeds security into daily operations.
For fashion brands, this translates into stronger protection of sensitive designs and supply chain data security.
How to Verify Certification
You can confirm certification with two steps:
- Request a Copy: A valid certificate must list the accredited body and expiration date.
- Search Databases: Many certification bodies offer public tools to verify a company’s status.
This simple check confirms a vendor’s claims are genuine.
Why Secure PLM Software Needs ISO 27001
