Geotab announced that it has been certified by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 27001, confirming the integrity of its information security management system (ISMS).
The company is ISO 27001 certified for all of its telematics solutions, including the GO Appliance and MyGeotab platform available globally, as well as its four offices in North America.
ISO 27001 is a globally recognized standard that requires numerous controls for the establishment, maintenance and certification of an organization’s ISMS.
The ISMS encompasses all relevant policies and processes for how data is controlled and used within an organization.
