Adding internationally recognised ISO certifications for information security and privacy best practices demonstrates our ongoing commitment to protecting our customers.” 

The three ISO certifications include:

• ISO 27001: This certification recognises that RingCentral has designed and implemented a set of controls and measures to effectively manage risk and achieve compliance on a continual basis to protect customer information and data. The certification also demonstrates that RingCentral has a robust security programme with rigorous management activity and technical controls to address leading Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability (CIA) principles of Information Security.

• ISO 27017: Provides guidelines for information security controls applicable to and specific to the provisioning and use of cloud services. RingCentral’s ISO/IEC 27017 certification demonstrates that the company extends its disciplined Information Security Management System (ISMS) to the operation of its cloud services.

“Security and compliance are crucial parts of business communications as companies deploy solutions that enable their employees to work from anywhere and on any device," said Wayne Kurtzman, Research Director of Communities and Collaboration at IDC.
