In an era where data breaches and cyber threats are increasingly common, security is not just a priority – it’s an imperative. At Sea, we are driven by a commitment to not only steer the shipping industry towards innovation but to do so with an unwavering focus on protecting critical information. Our continuing achievement of ISO 27001 certification, awarded to us by the British Standards Institution (BSI), marks a significant milestone in our journey, setting a global benchmark for information security management systems (ISMS). 

What is ISO 27001 and why is it important? 

The ISO 27001 certification signifies that Sea has implemented, and continually adheres to, a rigorous framework for managing information security risks. This comprehensive approach ensures the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your data – a cornerstone of trust in our digital age. 

Customers engaging with Sea can be fully confident in our proven risk management strategies, adherence to stringent international security standards, and full compliance with legal regulations as an ISO 27001-certified company.  

This accreditation not only demonstrates our ability to protect sensitive information but also offers assurance against any third-party services, mitigating risks through defined incident response protocols, and fostering an ingrained culture of security awareness within Sea. 

What this means for you: Enhanced security and peace of mind 

Achieving ISO 27001 certification underscores our dedication to safeguarding your data in several ways: 

  • Stronger data protection: We’ve implemented robust controls shielding sensitive information, including Single Sign-On (SSO) for streamlined and secure access, IP protection and encryption, as well as regular, thorough security audits. 
  • Reduced risk of security incidents: Our ISMS proactively identifies and addresses potential threats, minimising the likelihood of disruptions, cyberattacks or data breaches. 
  • Continuous improvement: We are always refining our security posture to stay ahead of evolving threats and act as a leader in maritime for industry best practices. 

Today when data theft is frequent headline news, Sea remains committed to being a beacon of trust for the shipping industry. In choosing Sea, our clients are gaining a trusted ally that prioritises the safeguarding of your data, enabling you to focus on what matters most: the growth and success of your business.
