Healthcode passes its infosecurity medical with the help of IT Governance

Information security is not only headline news these days; behind the scenes it is becoming an essential requirement for an increasing number of organisations seeking new business. One SME in the health sector decided it had to be prepared, and turned to IT Governance for help.

“We’ve always taken security seriously, and even before we went for the formal ISO 27001 audit, we always operated pretty closely to the earlier version of BS7799 standard on this.”
