Samsung Electronics Co. announced on Friday that its global connected living platform SmartThings received the ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification for information security management systems (ISMSs) from the British Standards Institution (BSI), a world-renowned standardization and certification organization.

ISO 27001 is the leading global standard for ISMSs, established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

It provides companies with guidance to systematically manage risks to information assets and achieve information protection goals.

To be certified, a company must meet the standard across 123 detailed items, including policies for information security, access control for information assets, and incident response.

With this certification, Samsung has proven that the information protection of its SmartThings Cloud operates by international standards while providing integrated connected experiences, Samsung Electronics said in a statement.
