Company data practices align with internationally recognized standard for information security management systems.

Milliken & Company recently completed the ISO 27001:2022 (ISO/IEC 27001) certification process for information security management systems (ISMS) as part of the company’s commitment to data privacy and security.

“ISO 27001 benchmarks our efforts against leading industry practices and signals to our stakeholders that we are committed to the highest levels of data security,” said David Smart, Milliken EVP, CFO and chief information officer.

The ISO 27001 program promotes a holistic approach to information security that supports risk management, cyber-resilience and operational excellence. The standard requires an organization to implement comprehensive policies, procedures and controls that oversee all aspects of information security, such as risk assessment, access control, encryption, incident response and auditing.
 
“We’re taking steps to ensure our data is as secure as possible, and we’ve found the ISO 27001 standard to be one of the best-known assessments available,” added Ken Brown, Milliken’s director of cyber security and governance. “Milliken stakeholders trust our company with their confidential data each day, and we want to provide assurance that this trust is well-placed.”
