The ISO 27001 certification was identified as a model to follow and ensure YCH possesses an established framework for identifying, managing, and reducing risks to the security of information.

The road to certification requires both time and dedication and YCH has worked diligently over the past few years to meet the stringent security requirements of the ISO 27001 standard.
