Emapta Latam Achieves ISO 27001 Certification

Emapta Global is proud to announce its latest achievement: the company recently received an extension of its ISO 27001 certification to Emapta Latam, the first office outside the Philippines to obtain this recognition.

This significant milestone –Philippine headquarters received the Certification last year– reflects the company’s unwavering commitment to abide by the highest international standards for information security

What is ISO 27001 Certification?

ISO 27001 is a globally recognized standard that sets a framework for managing information security. It guides organizations in establishing, maintaining, and improving an information security management system (ISMS). The Certification is granted after a thorough audit, conducted by an independent body.

By extending ISO 27001 to its LatAm office, Emapta demonstrates the strength of its data security protocols, successfully establishing a new office in a different region without compromising customer privacy.

How Does ISO 27001 Benefit Emapta’s Clients?

With cyber threats becoming more sophisticated every day, companies need an outsourcing partner that prioritizes the security of their business information.

Extension of ISO 27001 to the LatAm office reassures clients that Emapta is doing everything possible to secure their data, from implementing encryption protocols to creating robust incident response systems.

The specific benefits for clients include:

Trustworthy Data Handling

The Certification confirms that Emapta Latam’s approach to managing client information aligns with internationally recognized security standards.

Compliance with Global Standards

Many industries, particularly finance and healthcare, require service providers to comply with international data protection laws. ISO 27001 ensures Latam’s office meets these global standards.

Reduced Risk of Data Breaches

A solid security framework significantly lowers the chances of data breaches, securing clients’ peace of mind while conducting their outsourced business operations.

Security Milestones Amid Expansion

As Emapta continues to grow, its focus on information security will remain a foremost priority. Efforts in this regard will continue undeterred, seeking to ensure the following:

Maintaining Certification in the Philippines and Latam

Emapta also passed the ISO 27001 Surveillance Audit for its offices in the Philippines this year. Next year, both GEOS shall be subject to this audit.

Future expansion plans

Emapta plans to include more sites in the certification scope by next year’s annual ISO audit. This will ensure optimal data protection for clients, no matter which location they choose, giving them the flexibility to set up operations wherever best suits their needs.

Coming SOC2 certification

Emapta Latam is about to be attested for the SOC2 certification. If certified, Emapta Latam will be the first GEO outside the Philippines to be ISO 27001 and SOC2 certified.

Voices of Emapta Latam’s remarkable journey

Achieving this certification reflects the hard work of our IT team, who had to go through rigurous external audits to certify all our security processes and protocols align with industry best practices. Working with such talented professionals significantly strengthens the trust bond between Emapta and its customers.”
