73Health Achieves Official ISO 27001:2022 Certification for Information Security Management
Information security is of paramount importance in the healthcare industry. Clear and effective operational models ensure the safe handling of data, up-to-date documentation and smooth business continuity in all circumstances.
73Health has recently been awarded the ISO 27001:2022 certification for its information security management system (ISMS). The certification focuses on establishing, implementing, maintaining and continuously improving a systematic approach to managing sensitive company and customer information securely. It enhances business operations by ensuring effective risk management, compliance with international standards and trust among partners and clients.
The audit was carried out by Kiwa Sertifiointi, one of Finland’s leading certification bodies, and 73Health successfully completed the two-stage audit as planned. Throughout the process, the company gained valuable insights and further strengthened its ISMS practices.
Rather than being a one-time effort, information security is a continuous process at 73Health and remains a top business priority. Annual follow-up audits will ensure the ongoing relevance and improvement of the company’s security frameworks.
– This certification is an extremely important milestone for us. We had already achieved ISO 27001 compliance earlier, but the official certification demonstrates the significant progress we have made. It also allows us to confidently showcase the reliability of our operations to both current and future partners, said Kimmo Nikkanen, CEO of 73Health.
Strengthening Internal Processes Through ISO 27001 Implementation
73Health’s personnel were actively involved in the audit process, from documentation to participation in interviews. The company also organized several internal ISMS training sessions to ensure that the lessons learned during the certification process are seamlessly integrated into everyday practices.
– Going forward, we will handle ISMS-related matters routinely as part of our internal communications. During the audit preparations, we also developed a comprehensive ISMS training package for all new employees to ensure that our proven best practices are clearly understood across the entire organization, added Petri Tapala, International Program Manager who led the audit process.
ISO 27001:2022 certification focuses on proactive risk management, data protection and continuous improvement which are essential principles that help organizations of all types of safeguard information and maintain trust in today’s digital landscape.
