In October 2023, global law firm White & Case LLP expanded its Information Security ISO/IEC 27001/2 certification, the world's highest accreditation for information protection and security, to include the ISO/IEC 27017 Cloud Security extensions.
Awarded to organizations whose business processes conform to strict international standards, ISO provides the only auditable, international accreditation for information security management and privacy information management.
The Firm's ISO program was further assessed to be in alignment with the rigorous National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-53 standard, as well as with the cybersecurity practices recommended by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).
"Protecting our clients' data is a top priority," said Tony Cordeiro, White & Case Chief Information Officer. "Since 2011, we have consistently renewed our ISO 27001 certification, and by incorporating the ISO27701 privacy and ISO 27001 cloud security standard, we are further enhancing our data protection and privacy measures."
To obtain recertification, White & Case underwent a comprehensive set of internal and external reviews to ensure its IT systems and cloud security practices met the requirements of ISO/IEC 27001, 27701 and 27017. The process was audited by MSECB Management Systems, Inc., a leading global provider of examination, audit and certification services.
