Ensuring that customer data and information are protected is crucial for any organization. Hopsworks understands the importance of maintaining compliance with regulations and guidelines to safeguard the integrity of customer data. Besides working extensively with infrastructure security, Hopsworks has also undertaken the mission to improve and evolve the organization's internal security. With these efforts Hopsworks has now achieved an ISO 27001 certification.
ISO 27001 is a globally recognized standard that specifies requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an information security management system (ISMS). By using an ISMS, companies can continuously manage their security assets, such as cloud resources, intellectual property, and customer data.
The standard covers a wide range of areas, including risk management, security policy, asset management, physical and environmental security, access control, operations security, communications security, system acquisition, development and maintenance, supplier relationships, incident management, and business continuity management.
Obtaining an ISO 27001 certification is a significant milestone for Hopsworks, as it signifies that the company has a solid foundation and follow best practices in managing security assets, both digitally and physically. Hopsworks is committed to continuously improving their ISMS and applying an information security mindset to all their organizational endeavors.
Achieving ISO 27001 certification also provides Hopsworks' customers and users with a sense of security and trust in the feature store platform. By maintaining compliance, Hopsworks hopes to be a better fit for their customers by meeting their compliance standards and needs. Hopsworks understands the importance of providing a secure and trustworthy platform for their customers, and this certification demonstrates Hopsworks commitment to achieving this.
The next step in Hopsworks’ compliance journey is to renew our SOC2 type II certification. This certification attests that Hopsworks has implemented adequate controls to safeguard customer data and meet stringent requirements in the areas of security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. More information about Hopsworks’ commitment to security and compliance will soon be available.
