What is ISO/IEC 27001?

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) co-published this internationally recognized certification. It defines the requirements for setting up and maintaining an information security management system (ISMS), which is a documented set of policies that govern and protect an organization’s sensitive data. An ISMS acts as the central hub for an information security program. It helps companies identify cyber risks, address security vulnerabilities, and proactively manage any threats by spelling out action plans in the event of a breach. 

Rippling’s ISMS is embedded across the entire organization to ensure security is a key pillar of our strategy. 

Rippling’s other new security certifications

In addition to ISO/IEC 27001, Rippling has also achieved certifications for ISO/IEC 27018 and CSA STAR Level 2. 

      Protecting sensitive data is crucial. You’re safe with Rippling.

      As an all-in-one HR, IT, and Finance solution, employee data is at the center of everything Rippling does, which is why we go the extra mile to protect this sensitive information. In addition to the new certifications, Rippling is also SOC 1 and SOC 2 compliant and adheres to industry best practices.
