Privacy Information Management Systems
We are the only internationally recognized accreditation body in Canada offering Privacy Information Management Systems accreditation, which is based on ISO/IEC 27006, the international standard for providing information security management systems audit and certification. As a pre-requisite, certification bodies must also be accredited to Information Security Management Systems and ISO/IEC 17021-1.
Organizations across industries and of all sizes implementing the ISO/IEC 27701 management systems standard to manage privacy often turn to SCC-accredited certification bodies for third-party oversight. Reasons include procurement eligibility requirements, regulatory compliance and competitive differentiation. The ISO/IEC 27701 standard can be easily integrated with other management systems standards, such as ISO 9001, due to its common structure.
