Privacy has changed. Are you ready?

November 2025
Stay ahead in Digital Trust with One Click Closer. With ISO/IEC 27701 now published as a stand-alone standard, marking the growing maturity of privacy as a discipline, this month we focus on transforming privacy commitments into confident, practical action.
Privacy can’t be an afterthought. People want clarity. Regulators want evidence. Organizations need confidence in how they handle data.

ISO/IEC 27701:2025, the updated Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) standard, has just been published. This latest version is now a stand-alone privacy standard, no longer an extension of ISO/IEC 27001.

This change makes it simpler and clearer for organizations of all sizes to manage personal data responsibly. Whether you’re navigating complex regulations as a global enterprise or building trust with clients as a growing business, the update gives you a framework to act with confidence.
