Landytech elevates security standards with ISO 27001 certification

[London, UK, 08/05/2024] Landytech, the leading European investment management platform, is proud to announce that it has recently been awarded ISO 27001 certification, an accreditation that reinforces its ongoing commitment to the highest standards of information security.  

The ISO 27001 certification is internationally recognised and reflects Landytech’s commitment to maintaining rigorous information security standards. For Landytech, achieving this certification was a demanding process, involving a comprehensive and challenging audit that scrutinised every facet of its operations, from personnel to processes and technology. This certification is particularly timely given the current climate of heightened cybersecurity concerns across the investment management sector. It also sets Landytech apart as one of the few investment management platform providers to achieve such a standard, ensuring that it remains one of the most secure platforms in the industry. 

Landytech’s CEO and Founder, Benjamin Mouté, emphasised the importance of information security to the company, stating, “We have always invested heavily in IT security and it was crucial for our client base of asset owners, managers and advisors to have our efforts validated through a highly respected accreditation.” He added, “This achievement is a testament to our team’s hard work and dedication to security amidst the evolving digital threats.” 

The company’s Chief Technology Officer, Thomas Carsuzan, also reflected on the significance of this milestone, noting “At a time of increasingly sophisticated external threats, ensuring data security and privacy is one of our primary responsibilities. The ISO 27001 certification demonstrates our focus on protecting business-critical information, developer code, and operations but also reassures our clients that their data is secure with us.” 

The scope of Landytech’s ISO 27001 certification is comprehensive, covering all employees, technologies, IT infrastructure, and information assets. The certification was conducted by the British Assessment Bureau, a third-party auditor accredited by the UK Accreditation Service (UKAS), ensuring an independent and rigorous validation of Landytech’s information security management system.  

Since its inception in 2018, Landytech has been at the forefront of investment data consolidation, analytics, and reporting, offering a platform, Sesame, that automates the entire process from sourcing and consolidating data from custodians to the production of polished and comprehensive investment reports. With this ISO 27001 certification, Landytech not only solidifies its position as a leader in the industry but also sets the standard for operational excellence and security. Looking ahead, Landytech continues to innovate and enhance its offerings, reinforcing its commitment to leading the industry in both security and functionality.
