BemroseBooth Gains Certification for Important Information Security Standard
As a provider of specialist and secure print services for successful value transactions, BemroseBooth is trusted to ensure the security of information provided by its clients.
The number of reported Information Security breaches and incidents continues to increase in today’s global market place. BS 7799 has been established as a standard for an Information Security Management System that helps identify, manage and minimize the range of threats on information.
BemroseBooth recently gained BS 7799 certification from BSI Management Systems, an independent certification body, after an exhaustive audit. Specific areas of review and management included: security policies, organisation of assets and resources, asset control, personnel security, physical and environmental security, communications and operations management, access control, systems development and maintenance, business continuity management and compliance. The scope of the certification includes all manufacturing and administrative areas of BemroseBooth’s Security Printing business. In accordance with the standard, BemroseBooth has put in place the necessary controls and policies and is one of the first security print providers in Europe to gain certification.
BemroseBooth views the BS 7799 Certification as a commitment to its clients. “BemroseBooth has a proud tradition of receiving, managing and protecting sensitive and confidential information for use in financial documents and statements, gift vouchers, prepaid phone cards, and sports and entertainment tickets,” commented Andy Blundell, Managing Director of BemroseBooth’s Derby facility, “with BS 7799 BemroseBooth saw the opportunity to take our internal security policies to another level in concert with our client’s expectations.” As a part of the on-going compliance programme, BemroseBooth will be audited every 6 months.
