We're Now ISO/IEC 27001 Certified: Setting the Standard for Security Management

We're proud to announce that we've achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, the world's leading standard for information security management systems.

This achievement reinforces our position as a global leader in digital asset security, confirming that our robust security framework not only meets but exceeds the most rigorous international standards for protecting customer information.

What this means for our customers

ISO/IEC 27001 is the internationally recognised standard for information security management, requiring organisations to implement robust controls, policies, and procedures to safeguard data and assets. Achieving this certification demonstrates that:

  • Your information and assets are protected in accordance with globally recognized best practices

  • Security controls and governance have been independently assessed and verified by BSI Group, a trusted and accredited certification body

  • Risk management and security practices are aligned with international standards and industry benchmarks

  • Effective systems are in place to proactively identify, assess and respond to evolving security threats

Our certification journey

The path to certification involved months of careful preparation and implementation of required security measures across our global operations.

After thoroughly implementing these comprehensive security controls, we engaged BSI Group, an internationally recognized, independent certification body, to conduct a comprehensive audit of our Information Security Management System. This assessment confirmed our alignment with the rigorous requirements of the ISO/IEC 27001:2022 standard.

Gracie Lin, CEO of OKX Singapore, received the ISO 27001 certification from BSI Group's ASEAN Managing Director, Mr. Emmanuel Herve, on behalf of our company, marking a significant achievement in our commitment to security. On our receipt of the certificate, Mr. Emmanuel Herve commented that this showcases our leadership in information security and our adoption of a forward-thinking approach to managing digital risks. "It’s a significant milestone, and BSI is pleased to have been part of their success."
