Setting the standard for Security & Data Protection

Nothing is more important than the security of employee data. This is something which is embedded into all of the processes and technologies that we have at Asperity.

In June 2009, our Information Security Management System was accredited by BSi as reaching the ISO 27001:2005 standard. This is a first in the employee benefits industry and it means that our clients can be assured that our systems and processes have been through a rigorous vetting and audit process.

Asperity’s ISO 27001 accreditation covers all of our benefits activities and all parts of the business. Our datacentre is also separately accredited to ISO 27001.

All BSi security-accredited organisations must pass an annual re-assessment in order to keep its ISO 27001 accreditation. In June 2010, Asperity passed its re-assessment with flying colours, with ‘no non-conformities at all’. In fact, the BSi assessor hailed Asperity’s re-assessment as ‘one of the best audits in years’.

“We think it’s brilliant that Asperity has achieved the ISO 27001 accreditation which will drive up standards in the VB sector. As we are in the final process towards receiving this accreditation ourselves, we are fully aware of how much hard work goes into it and the benefits it brings to both the business and to clients. It will prove to be a significant factor in provider selection for clients in the future”.
