The certification provides a stamp of approval for the safety and security of IQAX's solutions. The ISO 27001 certification is a global hallmark and standard for information security management systems.

IQAX's TrackIt and Velocity systems were granted the certification, underscoring their alignment with best practices and the most up-to-date security measures to keep data safe and private for users. The certification gives users assurance that all information and data is managed safely and securely to effectively manage risks related to breach that could have legal or business continuity implications.

TrackIt is IQAX's predictive solution for the real-time tracking of vessels and cargos. IQAX Velocity logistics operations optimizer is a cloud-based and on-premise management solution to streamline and ensure processes, quality and human resources are up to par with operational objectives. Both versions have received the ISO 27001 certification.

"The ISO 27001 certification is a great achievement for our suite of digital solutions. The guideline underscores IQAX's commitment to providing technology that is safe and effective for our clients in the logistics industry and beyond," said Romney Wong, the Chief Executive Officer for IQAX.

The ISO/IEC 27001 certification marks an important step in IQAX's evolution as the premier provider of digital solutions for shipping and logistics customers. The certification provides assurance of the increased reliability and security of systems and information, engenders confidence among customers and business partners, strengthens the resilience of the business, aligns IQAX with the requirements of customers, and allows for improved management processes and better integration with corporate risk strategies.

In essence, the ISO/IEC 27001 is a clear statement that IQAX TrackIt and IQAX Velocity are aligned with industry leading best practices and procedures to keep information secure in any format.

"Cybersecurity is a significant concern for many companies. In terms of protection, it's a matter of when, not if," said Wong. "The ISO 27001 certification is an affirmation that IQAX's controls, protocols and processes are aligned with international standards of security."
