ISO 27001 Confidence for Plexus Innovation

Plexus Innovation, the company behind IoT remote monitoring solution GUARDIAN®, is proud to announce that it has achieved accreditation for ISO 27001:2013, further re-enforcing customer confidence in the team and the GUARDIAN® system performance.

ISO 27001 is the international standard that describes best practices for an ISMS (Information Security Management System). The standard takes a risk-based approach to information security, including a set of policies, procedures, processes and systems that manage risks, such as cyber-attacks, hacks, data leaks or theft.

Andrea Drakulic, operations co-ordinator worked closely with technical director Steve Todd to successfully deliver the certification project, which involved every team member along the way. Steve said:

“ISO 27001 helps establish operational resilience, which is key when you are handling data used for compliance by clients. Working to this standard, we are demonstrating our ability to manage the security of that third party information and operating our own best practice level.

“Our commitment to this means that existing and new customers can have full reassurance that Plexus Innovation addresses all three key dimensions of information security: Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability.”

The company’s GUARDIAN® technology remotely measures temperature, pulses, humidity, and CO2, allowing clients to manage water systems, cold chain storage and refrigeration, enabling insight-driven decisions, reduction of energy use and provision of real-time data for use in compliance reporting.

The system also provides automated alerts to highlight potential health risks or failing assets that otherwise may be overlooked. It is an innovative proprietary product that addresses legislative issues, pushing compliance and asset management into the 21st Century. GUARDIAN® is attracting high profile clients focused on improved compliance management, sustainability, business improvement and delivering better service to their own customers.

Andrea, who has a background in global security, will now move onto leading the project team to deliver ISO 14001 in Environmental Management Systems and ISO 9001 in Quality Management, demonstrating that quality is being achieved on every level. She said:

“We already work to such stringent standards that it is now important to demonstrate that with certifications. It gives customers ongoing peace of mind, and means we keep up with the most up to date compliance in our field. As market leaders in remote technology that is crucial.”

If you are challenged with reducing risk of human error, operational costs, water waste, energy consumption or environmental impact, and want to work with a company that takes your security as seriously as you do, then GUARDIAN® is a must-have technology for your organisation.
