Introduction: Strengthening Trust Through Proven Security Standards
LabArchives is proud to announce the successful renewal of our ISO 27001:2022 certification, following a comprehensive external audit conducted by Schellman, an independent accredited certification body.
This achievement not only reaffirms LabArchives’ dedication to information security management but also represents our continued alignment within the Dotmatics Group’s collective ISO 27001 certification—a unified standard across all Dotmatics platforms committed to protecting customer data with the highest level of rigor.
About the ISO 27001:2022 Standard
The ISO 27001:2022 standard, published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), is the world’s most recognized framework for establishing, implementing, and continuously improving an Information Security Management System (ISMS).
To achieve certification, an organization must demonstrate a systematic and ongoing approach to identifying, managing, and mitigating information security risks that could affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data.
The 2022 revision of the standard emphasizes:
- Continuous measurement and evaluation of information security performance
- Integration of security management into business processes
- Enhanced focus on risk treatment, monitoring, and continual improvement
The LabArchives ISO 27001:2022 Audit
As part of this certification process, Schellman conducted an extensive external audit of LabArchives’ Information Security Management System (ISMS), covering our Electronic Lab Notebook (ELN) operations and support, software development, and cloud hosting infrastructure.
The assessment verified that LabArchives:
- Meets or exceeds ISO 27001:2022 requirements in all evaluated areas
- Has robust controls in place to protect sensitive information assets
- Actively monitors and manages these controls for effectiveness and compliance
The auditor’s conclusion confirmed that LabArchives maintains a mature, well-implemented ISMS that protects company and customer information against potential risks.
