Labgenomics announced on the 11th that it has obtained two international standard certifications for Information Security Management System and Personal Information Protection Management System.


The two international standards acquired this time are the highest authority international standard certifications in the field of information security established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). The certifications are issued to companies that meet the requirements after auditing 35 requirements and 114 control objectives for Information Security (ISO 27001), and 8 requirements and 49 control objectives for Personal Information Protection (ISO 27701).


Through this certification, Labgenomics will protect patients' Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) diagnostic data and comply with various legal requirements such as the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the US Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Based on this, the company plans to strengthen trust with customers, enhance corporate and brand value, and expand market share.


A company representative stated, “During the certification audit process, our efforts to strengthen internal information protection policies and procedures, improve security infrastructure, and conduct information security training for all employees were recognized,” adding, “These efforts will serve as a fundamental basis to ensure that customers' sensitive medical information is safely protected from external threats.”



He continued, “We are significantly increasing IT specialized personnel and focusing investments on medical services and data stabilization through strengthening IT security and infrastructure.”
