At Detective Desk, we take compliance seriously. That's why we are committed to adhering to all relevant state and federal legislation, industry codes of conduct, and industry best practices, including the Privacy Act and Australian Privacy Principles.
To ensure that we maintain these high standards, we have implemented strict policies and procedures for collecting, holding, maintaining, using, and disclosing personal information. We are devoted to protecting the privacy of our clients and to handling their information with the utmost care and respect.
In 2021, Detective Desk made a commitment to upholding the highest standards in information security management by embarking on a journey to become ISO 27001 certified. This internationally recognised standard provides a framework for minimising threats to a company's information and communication technology assets, and we knew that achieving this certification would demonstrate our dedication to ensuring the security and integrity of our business.
We are proud to announce that we have successfully met the requirements for ISO 27001:2013 and were issued with our digital certificate in mid-2022. But our work doesn't stop there. As ISO 27001 is an ongoing process, we are committed to continuous improvement and maintaining our internal audits and documentation, as well as undergoing the mandatory annual external audits. This includes a triennial recertification process to ensure that we are always meeting the highest standards.
We believe that this certification will give our clients even more confidence in our commitment to information security best practices and meeting their expectations. At Detective Desk, we are dedicated to providing the highest level of service and support, and we are proud to have achieved this important milestone.
