Delvinia is a Toronto-based company that offers a suite of technology platforms that organizations use to collect consumer data to enable them to make quicker, better and more cost-effective business decisions. Delvinia’s longterm goal is to lead the way in the automation and virtualization of the entire market research process through data collection technologies and artificial intelligence.

With the increasing importance of faster decision making and “big data” in modern economies, all types of industries are turning to data collection companies like Delvinia to provide accurate, relevant, reliable, and current market information. But to gain a competitive advantage globally, Delvinia needed to be able to demonstrate an understanding of the threats to data privacy and protection, and country-or state-specific compliance requirements.

SCC provided the company with the strategic advice and support it needed to obtain ISO 27001 certification. ISO 27001 is an international standard used around the world to manage the security of information. Certification to ISO 27001 has allowed Delvinia to prove to its customers that information security is a top priority. It is also enabling Delvinia to compete in the global marketplace because it can now demonstrate to clients around the world that it is following best practices in data security and to easily meet procurement requirements when responding to RFPs. In the process, it has helped positioned Canada as an innovator and global leader in the transformation of market research.
