At Floid, information security is not just a requirement—it's part of our DNA. That's why we’re proud to announce that we have renewed our ISO 27001 certification, updating to the 2022 version. This recertification strengthens our commitment to data protection and customer trust, ensuring our solutions meet the highest international standards.

What is ISO 27001 certification and why is it important?

ISO 27001 is the most globally recognized standard for information security management (ISMS). Its purpose is to establish controls and best practices to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data within an organization.

The new 2022 version of the standard introduces key improvements to address emerging cybersecurity threats and challenges, ensuring that companies handling sensitive data—such as those in the fintech and Open Banking sectors—can offer safer digital environments.

‍

Key changes in ISO 27001:2022

The updated standard includes 11 new controls in critical areas such as:

🔹 Threat intelligence: Incorporation of tools and processes to detect and prevent risks before they occur.
🔹 Cloud security: Implementation of specific controls for secure data management in cloud environments.
🔹 Configuration management: Strengthening security across tech infrastructure by ensuring secure configurations in all systems.
🔹 Cyberattack prevention: Advanced strategies to minimize vulnerabilities in information systems and digital transactions.

These improvements reinforce the security framework every fintech company must uphold to protect the data of its customers and strategic partners.
