This achievement reflects PIC’s commitment to safeguarding the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information it holds, helping to protect against current and future threats. PIC is committed to secure and responsible handling of information, and instilling confidence in stakeholders that information security is a high priority.
Andy Bullivant, Head of Information Security, at Pension Insurance Corporation, said:
“Achieving certification is a recognition of the quality of people, processes, and technology within PIC. The message throughout this journey has been clear, this is about continual improvement, and certification is just the beginning. We are pleased that PIC’s ISMS meets the requirements of ISO 27001, and we are committed to protecting the information we handle.”
