icapps is now officially ISO 27001 certified

Every company runs on data. From the products we build to the tools we use, data powers every decision, every interaction, every experience. And when data becomes the backbone of your business, trust becomes your most valuable currency.

That’s why we’re proud to share that icapps has officially obtained its ISO 27001 certification, the international standard for information security management. What does it really mean? And why does it matter for us and the organizations we partner with?

What does an ISO 27001 certificate entail?

An ISO certificate is more than a badge. It’s official proof that an organization operates according to internationally recognised standards. ISO 27001 specifically focuses on information security, ensuring that data is handled responsibly, securely, and consistently across every process.

Unlike common perception, it isn’t just about firewalls, passwords, or encryption. It’s about people, processes, and accountability. It ensures that information security is integrated into every layer of our organization, from HR and finance to software design and client delivery. It’s about embedding security into the way we think and work.

As cyberattacks become a daily headline, they remind us how fragile digital ecosystems can be: data leaks, ransomware, systems brought to a halt. Meanwhile, regulations like the NIS2 directive are tightening across industries, making robust information security a requirement.

For icapps, this certification confirms that information security is built into our DNA and into every digital product from day one.

Security in every layer

At icapps we’ve mapped out every process that could affect information security. Throughout this journey, security stopped being “someone’s responsibility” and became everyone’s mindset.

It starts internally with clear policies, structured processes, and shared responsibility. We are certified across our full operational scope, meaning that every process within our organization, from HR and finance to design, engineering, and project delivery, adheres to the ISO 27001 standards. Take our joiner-mover-leaver process: when someone joins the team, they receive access only to the systems and data relevant to their role. When responsibilities change, so do access rights. And when someone leaves, all permissions are revoked immediately. It’s a simple principle that prevents small oversights from becoming big vulnerabilities.

That same thinking flows into our projects. From the very first design phase, we ask:

  • What kind of data will this platform process?

  • Where will that data live?

  • What safeguards are needed to protect it?

Our CI/CD pipelines automatically perform security checks, dependency scans, and code analyses to catch vulnerabilities early. Every product we build adheres to OWASP ASVS standards, which define best practices for secure application development.

This way, every release meets the same high standards for performance and protection.

What does the ISO certificate mean for our clients?

When you work with icapps, you’re partnering with a team that:

  • Handles your data according to international security standards.

  • Embeds risk assessment and mitigation into every project phase.

  • Monitors, tests, and validates its software continuously.

The result: products that are secure, reliable, and future-ready. You can focus on growth and innovation, knowing that your digital foundation is solid and built to withstand evolving regulations, technologies, and threats.

Not a miracle cure

ISO 27001 doesn’t make a company invincible. There’s no such thing as 100% security.

The real strength of ISO lies in its principle of continuous improvement. That’s also how the certification remains valid. To keep the ISO 27001 status, organizations must undergo yearly follow-up audits that verify ongoing compliance, and a comprehensive re-certification audit every three years. This ensures that the label continues to reflect real, demonstrable security maturity.

That mindset is crucial in an era shaped by AI. As artificial intelligence accelerates development and creativity, it also opens new doors for cybercriminals. Future resilience depends on integrating security into every process instead of treating it as a silo.

That’s why this certificate is not just an achievement for us, it’s the foundation for what comes next: a continuous commitment to safe, transparent, and high-quality digital innovation.
