The ISO 27001 certification implies that not only can users be assured of the confidentiality of their private data, but also of the authenticity and reliability of all sellers on the Snapdeal platform, the online major said in a statement.
The certification preserves the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information that helps in implementing an information security management system to gain competitive advantage in the marketplace, meet supply-chain demands and prevent ongoing and evolving cyber threats.
Snapdeal applied for the certification process as a direct response to the needs of the customers, the company said. It has now joined few e-commerce companies in India that have such a certification.
“By benchmarking policies and procedures against this internationally recognised standard, Snapdeal reflects its deep commitment to maintaining industry best practices which enhance customer experience while transacting online,” Rohit Bansal, co-founder of Snapdeal, said. (RKS)
