Playson, a digital entertainment supplier, has obtained the ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, demonstrating its commitment to robust compliance and information security measures.
Previously holding an ISO 27001:2013 certification, Playson has now upgraded to the latest version, essential for safeguarding sensitive information and maintaining its licenses in regulated markets. This update aligns with the company’s strategy to expand its reach across multiple regions over the next year, facilitating smoother entry into new jurisdictions.
The certification, awarded by Quinel, acknowledges Playson’s adherence to the standards set by the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO). This recognition underscores Playson’s ability to mitigate information security risks while complying with all necessary legal and regulatory requirements.
The 2022 version of the certification addresses contemporary information security challenges, including those related to cloud computing, remote working, and emerging technologies. It provides a framework for implementing and managing an effective information security management system (ISMS) to protect sensitive information assets.
With this certification, Playson strengthens its position in the igaming industry, ensuring the highest standards of information security as it continues to grow and enter new markets.
Vsevolod Lapin, Deputy CEO at Playson, said: “The transition to ISO 2022 is welcome news for the business, and shows our continued dedication to compliance and regulation. Partners can rest assured of Playson’s heightened security measures and adherence to international standards with us acquiring this certificate.
“Greece, Ontario and Sweden are vital territories for Playson, with this certification also necessary for the Swiss market, and I expect the ISO 2022 to be required for more jurisdictions in the future, so this recognition has been received at a good time as we look to strengthen our global standing.”
