ISO 27001 and Safe Harbor

“These certifications are a massive competitive differentiator for us as the only rewards and recognition software provider to achieve all three standards,” said Patrick D. Quirk, Achievers President and CEO. “We are proud to be the industry leader in information and data protection that will enable our customers to continue to focus on the important task of driving business excellence within their organizations.”
The ISO 27001 is the only internationally accepted security standard for software providers, ensuring security best practices and a managed approach to business information protection including risk, governance and compliance. The CSA STAR Certification is the first comprehensive third party assessment tool for cloud service providers (CSPs) in the world. It builds on the ISO 27001 information security management system standard by giving companies more visibility into the security of specific areas of their business. In applying to become CSA STAR certified Achievers has secured the highest possible GOLD rating across all of the company’s controls.
The Safe Harbor certification recognizes security alignment between businesses in the US and the European Union, ensuring that transmission of data and privacy policies follow the same requirements. Safe Harbor allows for the secure and seamless exchange of information internationally – a key differentiator as Achievers continues to expand globally.
