Vital Technology Group, the Wetherby-based provider of business IT services, has achieved ISO certifications which recognise its commitment and adoption of best practice in the fields of information security and quality management.
The two accreditations, ISO 27001 and ISO 9001, were awarded following a rigorous external audit and ensure that Vital’s systems, processes and procedures meet the internationally recognised standards.
ISO 9001 is an international standard that helps to ensure that customers get consistent, good quality products and services; while ISO27001 relates to information security management systems.
