It’s been a busy start to the year here, and we’ve hit the ground running with some major achievements already. From successfully completing our latest ISO 27001 and 9001 audits to receiving outstanding feedback on our security tool, Harpe, we’re already making waves in 2025...

Periculo Achieves ISO 27001 & 9001 Re-Certification – Zero Findings! 🎉

We’re proud to announce that Periculo has successfully completed our third ISO 27001 audit with zero findings! This achievement highlights our unwavering commitment to security, compliance, and operational excellence in the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity.

ISO 27001 and 9001 certifications are critical benchmarks for businesses handling sensitive information and ensuring high-quality management systems. Maintaining these certifications with zero findings is a testament to the security measures, structured risk management, and industry best practices we implement daily.

This milestone not only reinforces our internal security standards but also strengthens the trust our clients place in us. We understand that compliance is more than just a checkbox—it’s about proactive security, business continuity, and safeguarding digital health companies against emerging cyber threats.

A huge thank you to our team for their hard work and to our clients for their continued trust in Periculo. Here’s to another year of security excellence!

 

More ISO 27001 Success with Zero Findings! 🙌

We’re thrilled to share that EQL and Joy two of our clients have successfully passed their ISO 27001 audits with zero findings! This is a huge achievement, reflecting their commitment to security, compliance, and operational excellence.

Achieving flawless audit results is no small feat—it requires plenty of preparation, continuous monitoring, and a proactive security approach. Our Managed Security Services team worked closely with each client, providing expert guidance, security assessments, and tailored compliance strategies to ensure they were fully prepared.

This success is not just about compliance; it’s about building a robust security foundation that enables our clients to operate with confidence, meet regulatory requirements, and protect sensitive data.

Congratulations to both EQL and Joy on this incredible milestone! We’re proud to be their trusted partner in cyber security, and we look forward to continuing to support them in maintaining the highest security standards.

Security Fact 

Did you know? 🤔

In 2023, the healthcare industry accounted for 30% of all large-scale data breaches due to the increasing digitisation of medical records and IoT devices. Cybersecurity in digital health is no longer optional—it’s essential.

Security Tip of the Month
