StatPro becomes first portfolio analytics vendor to certify for ISO27001:2013 information security standard

StatPro Group plc (AIM: SOG), the AIM listed provider of portfolio analysis and asset pricing services for the global asset management industry, today announced it has been re-certified for ISO27001 to the latest 2013 revision of the industry standard information security framework.

Now in its sixth year of ISO certification, StatPro places information security very high on its agenda as it continues the transition to a pure cloud based provider of investment portfolio analytics. StatPro is the first portfolio analytics provider anywhere in the world to be certified to this latest revision of the standard. The 2013 revision updates the level of information security objectives required, the risk assessment process and the controls in place to safeguard data along with several other enhancements.

Justin Wheatley, StatPro Group CEO commented, "High levels of information security are paramount when it comes to client data. This certification demonstrates our commitment to data security as we develop the latest cloud-based portfolio analytics tools for the global investment management industry. Keeping pace with technological changes, opportunities and threats is key to delivering a high value product that not only delivers advanced analytical features, but also delivers on availability, confidentiality and integrity when it comes to our clients' data."
