Aculab and Jenetric each receive ISO certifications

Aculab has been recommended for ISO 27001 accreditation, providing assurance to the company’s voice biometrics customers of the security of their data.

The accreditation provides “requirements for an information security management system (ISMS),” to help ensure that companies have sufficiently robust security to manage sensitive assets like financial information, intellectual property, employees’ biometric data, and more.

Aculab’s implementation of an ISMS follows the company’s updating its Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS) solution Aculab Cloud in December.

According to the UK company, the necessity of achieving such a milestone now derives from the increased online activity worldwide caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Aculab’s ISMS covers the implementation of an Access Control Policy, the screening of new employees, enforcing security around the physical premises, and more.

Jenetric receives DIN EN ISO 14001:2015 certification

Jenetric has announced it received the DIN EN ISO 14001:2015 certification for environmental sustainability for its daily operations as a provider of high-quality forensic fingerprint biometric scanners.

The accreditation refers to the “requirements for an environmental management system that an organization can use to enhance its environmental performance.

According to the German biometrics company, receiving the certification makes responsibility towards people and nature an integral part of its corporate practice.

“Our efforts have paid off and we are very proud to have received the certification,” commented Managing Director Roberto Wolfer.

“From now on, in all areas, the aim is to reduce the impact on the environment to a minimum, whether in product development, the choice of materials in production, transport routes, disposal or the means of transport for business trips,” he added.

The 14001:2015 certification was awarded to Jenetric after an evaluation by auditors from TÜV Hessen.
