About Xergy
Xergy Group is a start-up tech company that developed a cloud-based project management software called Proteus. Proteus is targeted at companies working on complex, engineering projects involving many stakeholders, multiple moving parts, and tight deadlines. The tool is designed for teams who work in highly regulated sectors where risk is closely managed, and all aspects of a project are subject to audit. Proteus’s strength lies in how it pulls live data from various sources, providing project teams with complete visibility and data control – making information security the number one priority.
The challenge
Gaining ISO 27001 certification is a testament to the high standards Proteusand the Xergy team work to, providing the best data protection level.
To achieve their ISO 27001 certification, the busy team at Xergy recognised the need for external support from ISMS.online. Their primary goal was to generate growth through trust, security, and compliance.
The ISMS.online cloud platform is definitely the best way for a company like ours to track and report on how we handle and meet data security benchmarks.
