Vestd secures ISO 27001 certification

Written by Chris Lake | 17 March 2025

We are delighted to announce that we have achieved ISO 27001 certification, a globally recognised standard for information security management. 

This is a significant milestone for our business, reinforcing our commitment to protecting our customers’ data and ensuring the highest levels of security and compliance.

What is ISO 27001?

ISO 27001 is the gold standard in information security management. It sets out a robust framework for managing sensitive information, reducing risks, and ensuring continuous improvement in security practices.

To earn this certification, we had to demonstrate a systematic approach to securing our customers' and partners’ data, including risk assessment, incident response, and ongoing security enhancements.

Why this matters

For our customers, ISO 27001 is a mark of trust. In a world where cyber threats are on the rise, businesses need to know that their data is in safe hands. By achieving this certification, we provide:

  • Reassurance: Your data is protected with industry-leading security measures.
  • Compliance: We align with international regulations and best practices.
  • Reduced risk: We proactively identify and mitigate security threats before they become a problem.
  • Business continuity: Our structured approach ensures resilience against cyber incidents.

What this means for our business

Securing ISO 27001 certification is another big step forwards for us and comes hot on the heels of achieving B Corp status a few weeks ago. Both are real badges of honour for our brand and demonstrate that trust and integrity are among our core values.

None of these certifications are mandatory, and they are certainly not easy to achieve, but we strongly believe that they provide the right signals to customers and prospects.

We are very serious about what we do and on a mission to make Vestd the most trustworthy company of its kind.

Head of Product & Engineering Arthur Guy, who steered the project, said:

Achieving ISO 27001 certification is a significant milestone for us, reflecting our commitment to data security. I’m proud of the rigorous processes we have in place to safeguard our customers’ data while maintaining the agility and innovation that define our company.

Vestd is also authorised and regulated by the FCA.

Our commitment moving forward

ISO 27001 is not a one-time achievement - it’s a commitment to excellence. We will continue to refine our security processes, train our team, and adapt to new challenges to ensure we remain at the forefront of data protection.

Thank you to our team for their hard work in making this happen, and to our customers for trusting us with their data.
