Aberdeen-based Solab IT Services and Onboard TrackerTM have achieved ISO 27001 certification, marking a significant step forward in their continued focus on information security and the protection of customer data.
The certification recognises that the two associated businesses have implemented a structured framework to identify, manage and monitor information security risks, with processes designed to continually improve as technology and the threat landscape evolve.
For Solab, which provides IT infrastructure, support and technology solutions, that means applying a consistent and controlled approach to the systems, data and services its customers rely on every day. From access management and data handling to backups, incident response and business continuity, information security is embedded throughout the way the business operates.
The certificate offers greater confidence in the technology partner supporting clients’ critical business operations.
The same principles are particularly important for Onboard TrackerTM, the crew management software developed by Solab and used by organisations across the energy, renewables and marine sectors. The Onboard TrackerTM platform manages a wide range of operational information, including personnel records, workforce planning, training and competence records, logistics and global mobilisation data.
With customers operating across international markets, protecting this information is fundamental to keeping people, processes and operations moving.
ISO 27001 certification provides an independently assessed framework around how this information is protected, with regular risk assessments, documented security controls and formal processes for incident management and business continuity.
It also brings an added layer of confidence for organisations working in highly regulated and security-conscious sectors, where demonstrating strong information governance is increasingly important when selecting technology and service partners.
As Solab and Onboard TrackerTM continue to expand across the UK and international markets, ISO 27001 provides a strong foundation for that growth.
Kevin Coll, Managing Director of Solab and Onboard TrackerTM said: “Achieving ISO 27001 is a significant milestone for both Solab and Onboard TrackerTM.
“Our customers trust us with systems and information that are fundamental to their businesses, and we have a responsibility to make security part of everything we do. The process has given us an opportunity to look closely at how we manage risk, review our controls and continue improving the way we operate.
“Having that work independently assessed against an internationally recognised standard gives our customers additional confidence that protecting their information remains a priority for us.”
