The ISMS-P certification is a system that assesses whether a company can effectively respond to cyber threats and whether its information security and personal information protection management systems are being operated appropriately. It is regarded as the highest level of management system certification in Korea.

Lotte Card underwent an assessment on 101 certification criteria across three areas required for certification: establishment and operation of a management system, requirements for protection measures, and requirements for each stage of personal information processing, and successfully obtained the certification.

Previously, Lotte Card first acquired the international standard ISO27001 (Information Security Management System) certification in 2008, and further strengthened its security capabilities by obtaining the PCI DSS certification, a global data security standard for international brands, in 2017.

A Lotte Card representative stated, "We will continue to make every effort to ensure the highest level of protection throughout the entire process, from information collection and use to retention, provision, and disposal."
