PROS® today announced it has attained the ISO/IEC 27001: 2013 certification, the industry’s most prestigious standard for information security management. Published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the world’s largest developer of voluntary international standards, and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), ISO certification provides customers with assurances that PROS has met the industry’s most rigorous certification requirements for security in the cloud.
ISO 27001 certification includes PROS cloud and SaaS subscription products, along with the associated business processes and systems used to develop, operate and support the PROS product portfolio.
“Companies across the globe entrust PROS with their data, and ISO/IEC certification offers assurances to our customers that we are committed to data privacy and safeguarding their commercial assets in compliance with the industry’s most demanding standards and practices,” said PROS Chief Technology Officer Rob Reiner. “For our customers around the world, ISO certification also underscores that our governance and compliance practices meet the highest international standards to protect their data.”
To attain certification, PROS was required to pass a stringent, three-part audit that requires an in-depth review of its Information Security Management Systems (ISMS), which also includes a formal, independent compliance audit. The company will conduct annual independent audits to ensure it remains compliant with the global standard.
