Eone Diagnomics Genome Center Co., Ltd. (EDGC), one of the global genome companies, announced on 29th that it has been ISO-certified for Information Security Management System (ISO 27001) as well as Health Informatics Security System (ISO 27799) in the genome service field at the same time.
ISO 27001 as the most powerful certification in the information security field can be obtained by the companies that passed the strict scrutiny review on 14 management areas and 114 sub-areas associated with information security. ISO 27799 as the certification for health informatics security management specified for precision medicine is subject to legitimate and safe management of the most sensitive, personal health data including medical charts, prescription records, examination results, etc.
