HireRoad, a global leader in HR solutions, is proud to announce that its Australia-based recruitment platform, Acendre Recruit, has achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification. This prestigious certification demonstrates HireRoad's unwavering commitment to robust information security practices, giving its customers and stakeholders the confidence that their data is managed with the highest levels of protection.

The ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification process was completed in October 2024, with an external audit finding zero non-conformities - a testament to HireRoad's dedication to information security. The certification was officially issued in November 2024, marking a significant milestone in the company's ongoing cybersecurity journey.

"This achievement underscores HireRoad's commitment to safeguarding sensitive information and staying ahead in a rapidly evolving cyber security landscape," said Liam Ackland, Managing Director of Acendre. "It is a testament to our team's hard work and to the strong partnership we've forged with CyberCX in building and executing a comprehensive security roadmap."

Partnering with CyberCX to Elevate Security

CyberCX, a leading provider of professional cyber security services, played a pivotal role in HireRoad's certification journey. Over the course of six months, CyberCX worked closely with the Acendre team to implement an Information Security Management System (ISMS) that meets the rigorous standards of ISO/IEC 27001:2022. This collaboration included defining security roadmaps, applying risk-based approaches to information security, and providing ongoing leadership through Virtual CISO support.

"Acendre has made incredible strides in enhancing its cyber security capabilities," said Paul Kemp, Executive Director, CyberCX. "CyberCX is proud to support Acendre's commitment to safeguarding customer data, leading the way for security within their industry."
