Desmond OkonIn yet another milestone, the National Pension Commission has successfully attained recertification under the internationally recognised ISO 27001:2022 standard for Information Security Management Systems . This milestone follows an evaluation of PenCom’s ISMS compliance by the professional evaluation and certification board , Canada.
Upon successful completion of this evaluation, PenCom’s ISMS was found to be in compliance with the ISO 27001:2022 standards. This certification not only affirms that PenCom has established robust mechanisms for identifying and managing information security risks but also highlights its commitment to continual improvement in this critical area.PenCom’s previous certification under ISO 27001:2013 in 2021 was a testament to its dedication to safeguarding information assets.
The implications of this certification extend beyond mere compliance. In an era where data breaches and cyberattacks are increasingly common, PenCom’s adherence to the ISO 27001:2022 standard serves as a strong deterrent against potential threats. It provides assurance to contributors, retirees, and other stakeholders that their personal and financial information is secure and that PenCom has the necessary controls in place to mitigate risks effectively.
