Fieldfisher awarded ISO 27001 Certification for achieving best practice in Information Security Management

Fieldfisher has become one of the very few Irish law firms to be awarded ISO 27001 Certification for Information Security, covering all client and firm data.
 
ISO 27001 is the recognised international standard for information security. It provides a best practice framework that helps organisations to implement, maintain and continually improve an Information Security System, protecting against information threats and vulnerabilities and safeguarding client information.
 
Commenting on the certification, JP McDowell, Managing Partner said:
 
“Information security is one of the biggest challenges businesses face today.  Fieldfisher have been at the frontline with our clients in terms of advising them on how best to protect their businesses from cybercrime and related risks, including data protection.   
 
Against a backdrop of increasing cybercrime and GDPR compliance, achieving ISO certification gives our clients comfort that we take the security of their data, and our own, very seriously and that we apply the highest standard of controls to address confidentiality, integrity and security of information.”
