In a world where cyber threats are growing more prevalent by the day, and where data is synonymous with power, safeguarding sensitive financial information is now a top priority for every business. For an industry leading software company in Dallas, Texas, specializing in financial data analytics modeling, this commitment to data security was at the heart of their operations. Recognizing the critical importance of securing their financial data, the company embarked on a transformative journey toward ISO 27001 certification - the globally recognized standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). As they began their journey, they turned to MorganHill, a proven and trusted ISO 27001 partner that provided the expertise and guidance needed to navigate this certification process successfully.

The software company was entrusted with financial data that demanded the highest level of protection. Whether it was proprietary algorithms, market-sensitive information, or client financial data, they understood that data security wasn't just a requirement; it was the foundation of trust with their clients. Additionally, a large number of their contracts with clients required some form of cybersecurity compliance program be in place, such as SOC 2 or ISO 27001.
ISO 27001 certification became the logical step to solidify their commitment to data security, not just as a compliance measure but as a demonstration of their unwavering dedication to safeguarding sensitive financial information.
The MorganHill Approach:
The journey to ISO 27001 certification began with a comprehensive assessment by MorganHill, which included performing a much needed ISO 27001 Scoping & Gap Assessment. Our experts conducted a thorough analysis of the company's existing information security practices and identified gaps in compliance with ISO 27001 standards. With a tailored roadmap to certification in hand, we collaborated closely with the company's team to craft information security policies, procedures, processes, and controls that aligned precisely with ISO 27001 requirements while addressing the unique complexities of their financial data analytics domain.
