The Spanish company, FacePhi has been certified in the ISO 27001 standard. This international certification validates the implementation of the so-called Information Security Management System (ISMS), which demonstrates that all information accessed by the company is handled in a responsible and reliable manner.
Currently, the ISMS is the most recognized framework for any company that wants to globally certify the security in the processing of information, by standardizing criteria and methodologies that guarantee the confidentiality and integrity of the data provided by customers and suppliers. Thus, the achievement of ISO 27001 gives new impetus to FacePhi s entry into programs such as the so-called regulatory sandboxes, test spaces created by public administrations to innovate and improve existing legislation in fields such as the financial sector.

Tthe Secure Identity Alliance (SIA) has released Strong Identity, Strong Borders – an extensive exploration of the changing face of identity management.
Produced by members of the SIA’s Borders Working Group, Strong Identity, Strong Borders looks at the need for border authorities to balance security and protection with efficient and frictionless passenger experiences.
“Before Covid-19 took hold, international passenger volumes were set to double over the next 20 years,” explains Philippe Barreau, Chairman of the Board at SIA. “While it may be some time before we see a return to those pre-pandemic levels, demand will inevitably surge again.
