OMS granted ISO 27001 certification for security

CRM and origination platform, One Mortgage System (OMS), has been granted ISO 27001 certification that demonstrates its ongoing commitment to maintaining high standards of security for its users, brokers, lenders and strategic partners.

The International Organization for Standardisation (ISO) is a global body that collects and manages various standards for different disciplines. ISO 27001 is an internationally recognised standard for information security management systems (ISMS), providing an approach for firms to manage and protect sensitive information.

OMS began this certification journey in September 2023, during which time it has developed over 150 new policies and procedures which are now firmly embedded into the business at all levels.

The certification process involved an assessment conducted by the British Standards Institute (BSI). The certification process requires organisations to undergo thorough audits of their information security practices and demonstrate compliance with ISO 27001 standards throughout the whole business.

Neal Jannels, managing director of OMS, commented: “Achieving ISO 27001 certification represents a serious undertaking but is one which demonstrates our proactive approach to implementing rigorous information security controls and practices to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive data.

“These important processes help build trust among clients and stakeholders, reassuring them that their information is safeguarded against potential threats and provides tangible proof of our ongoing dedication to maintaining the highest standards of security throughout our system.”
