TWO CERTIFICATIONS SHOWCASE SECURITY & RESILIENCE IN BUREAU VERITAS SERVICES
Sep. 22 2022
Bureau Veritas UK & Ireland has achieved certification for two separate information and cyber security standards, showcasing our continued commitment to deliver secure and resilient services for clients.
Bureau Veritas UK Ltd and Bureau Veritas Building Control UK Ltd have been awarded the Cyber Essentials Plus certification, which is a UK Government-backed certification scheme supported by the industry. Cyber Essentials Plus assesses against security controls linked with many common cyber-attacks on organisations, including secure configuration, malware protection, patch management, access control, boundary firewalls and internet gateways.
In addition Bureau Veritas UK I&F (Industry & Facilities) is the first area in Bureau Veritas Group to be certified to ISO/IEC 27001: 2013 (the international standard which sets a framework for excellence in information security management systems). The plan is to expand the scope of this certification to wider services in the UK.
Greg Elwell (UK I&F QHSE Manager) for Bureau Veritas said: “Achieving and maintaining certification to global standards across our business is important to validate the robust approach we follow to deliver testing, inspection and certification services that help clients demonstrate their own compliance.
