What is ISO 27001?

In short

ISO 27001 is an international standard for managing information security, usually backed by a certified audit.

ISO 27001 is a global standard describing how an organisation should manage the security of its information. Providers publish their certifications so customers can judge their internal controls. Coverage here is broad. Aura reports ISO 27001 certified and SOC 2 Type II third-party audited, and Cloaked lists SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, ISO 27701, PCI DSS v4.0.1 on its trust page. Abine, Inc. holds SOC 2 Type 2 under the AICPA and also shows ISO 27001 alongside a TX-RAMP seal. Backblaze Computer Backup goes further, with SOC 2 Type 2, HIPAA and GDPR. Treat the certificate as a baseline, then check the scope and audit date.
