Digital financial and investment services platform, I-Invest has achieved two vital certifications – the ISO 27001 certification and the PCI-DSS certification, which represent the highest level of standards in data security and customer protection.
The need for data and information security has over the years been emphasised as the fintech industry continues to grow in the digital age. With customers entrusting their sensitive data to service providers, analysts had called for financial service providers to maintain a secure and safe environment for their customers’ data.
The ISO 27001 certification demonstrates that i-invest has implemented a comprehensive information security management system (ISMS) to protect against cyber threats and data breaches. This certification ensures that the company has adopted best practices for managing and protecting sensitive information, including customer data.
Additionally, I-Invest’s compliance with PCI-DSS standards confirms that the company has implemented strict measures to protect payment card data, including credit and debit card information. Both certifications serve as a testament to I-Invest’s commitment to ensuring secure and safe transactions for its customers on the platform.
Chief Product Officer of I-Invest, Tobi Olusoga, speaking on the certifications said “Our ISO 27001 certification and PCI DSS compliance are critical steps in providing secure and reliable financial services to our customers in the face of the ever-increasing threat of cyber-attacks and data breaches.
“We continuously monitor and improve our systems and processes and invest in the necessary infrastructure, tools, and training to maintain the highest level of security. Our customers can have peace of mind knowing that their data is in safe hands.”
ISO 27001 is a globally recognised standard for information security management systems, and PCI-DSS is a set of security standards designed to ensure that all companies that accept, process, store or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment. Companies that are ISO 27001 and PCI-DSS compliant implement rigorous security measures to ensure the safe handling of sensitive customer data and information.
