Toronto, Canada -- May 10 2023. Axiell, the world's leading software and services provider for the cultural sector, officially received their ISO 27001 certification on April 19, 2023. ISO 27001 is a leading international security standard that outlines the requirements for building and maintaining a robust information security management system (ISMS). As one of the first cultural technology vendors to be certified, this achievement demonstrates Axiell's leadership in the sector, and its dedication to digital security and sustainability.

"We are proud to be ISO 27001 certified. Information security is a foremost concern for Axiell as our clients process sensitive, personal data daily. With this certification we can assure our clients, future partners, and employees that their data is well-protected and that we are following security practices that meet the highest internationally acknowledged standard." Says Axiell CEO, Joel Sommerfeldt. "Being ISO 27001 certified also gives us a strategic advantage in the market. ISO certification is becoming a more common requirement from prospective customers, especially those in the private sector."

The ISO 27001 compliance framework is published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the world's largest developer of voluntary international standards, and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).
