The certification is a testament to the exceptionally stringent data security standards and reaffirms our long-standing commitment to providing our clients with industry-leading data security and protection. This has been awarded to us after an extensive third-party audit conducted by The British Standards Institution. Furthermore, many companies find this accreditation challenging because it necessitates a significant investment in IT infrastructure upgrades.”
