We are proud to announce that Zeticon is now officially 27001 certified!

This certification underlines our ongoing commitment to information security, transparency and protecting customer data in accordance with the highest standards. Achieving this certification is not only an internal milestone, but also good news for our customers. The security and quality of our data, systems and services have always been a top priority at Zeticon. By obtaining this certificate, we can also visibly demonstrate to our customers that we manage information security effectively.

What is ISO/IEC 27001 and why is it important?

ISO/IEC 27001 is the globally recognised standard for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continuously improving an Information Security Management System (ISMS).
In other words, it demonstrates that your organisation deals with information security in a systematic and structured manner, including risk analysis, policy development, access management, incident handling and compliance with laws and regulations such as the GDPR and NIS-2.

Information security is a core value within our organisation. Thanks to our ISO 27001 certification, we demonstrate that we handle data with care and work according to clear and reliable procedures. This gives not only us, but also our customers, the necessary peace of mind.

Nick Vercammen, CEO Zeticon
What does this mean for our current and future customers?

Zeticon often works with sensitive or confidential data. This may include personal data, internal documents or communications. By investing in a structured information security policy, our organisation ensures that this responsibility does not depend on the good faith of our customers, but is guaranteed by our procedures. More importantly, if something ever happens, such as a malfunction, a threat or a data breach, we not only have a (tested) action plan in place, but also a team that knows what to do.

  • Proven Information Security: Our customers' data is demonstrably protected. This international standard for information security demonstrates that, as a supplier, we actively identify and manage risks and have implemented security measures at a technical, organisational and policy level.
  • Less risk of data breaches: We have identified our risks and taken measures to manage them. By working with a certified supplier, you as a customer reduce your own risk of data breaches, reputational damage and fines, such as those imposed under the GDPR.
  • Transparency and trust: working with a partner who handles information with care. All processes are tested, documented and fully traceable.
  • Maximum data security, also in light of NIS-2: All data is processed, stored and managed according to fixed, secure procedures. Our ISO 27001 certification forms a strong basis for this. At the same time, we take additional measures to comply with the additional obligations of the European NIS2 Directive.

For future customers, this means they can rely on a partner who takes information security seriously. Whether you work in healthcare, finance, government or food, information security is a must, not a nice-to-have.

As project manager for the ISO27001 implementation project, it was important to identify all the tasks required for certification, assign them to colleagues with the necessary expertise and follow up to ensure they were completed.Our certification is the result of the consistent application of the written procedures by our colleagues and the unwavering commitment of management to keep information security at the forefront of our minds.

Carla Schoorens, Delivery Manager
The result of a strong team effort

Our experts Carla Schoorens, Project Manager, and Bart, Security Officer Zeticon, played key roles in this. Together with various colleagues from across the organisation, they spent months mapping out processes, drawing up clear guidelines and training colleagues. Not as a separate project, but as part of how we work.

This milestone is the result of a strong team effort within Zeticon. Thanks to regular security exercises and targeted training, all employees have contributed to achieving this certification. It is a clear recognition of our shared commitment to information security.

Bart Quintens, Security Officer
Obtaining ISO 27001 certification is not an end goal, but a foundation

Obtaining this certification is not an end goal, but a foundation. We continue to invest in improving our processes, systems and security so that our customers can rely on the security of their data. We regularly conduct internal and external audits and continuously review our processes.
We are part of several interest groups that keep us informed of changes in legislation. This ensures that we can make decisions based on accurate information when reviewing our processes, systems and security.

Do you have questions about how we handle information, or would you like to talk to our expert about risks, policy or best practices? We are happy to make time for you. Because real security starts with good conversations.
