More information

  • ISO27001 is a globally recognised standard focusing on managing the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information and systems.

    What are the benefits of ISO27001 certification?

    Achieving the globally recognised certification for information security will allow the University to demonstrate to our partners that it has a mature information security governance and risk management practice.
