Singapore (February 17, 2022) – Crypto.com today announced that it has been awarded the renowned ISO 22301 certification, the internationally recognized standard for Business Continuity Management (BCM) and is one of the first cryptocurrency companies in the world to earn this coveted accreditation. Crypto.com continues to lead the industry with information security and privacy certifications, demonstrating our commitment to further strengthening our platform and service offerings on multiple fronts.
The ISO 22301 certification was awarded by a globally recognized certification body, the British Standards Institution (BSI), which demonstrates to regulators, users and all interested parties that Crypto.com employs best industrial practices in Business Continuity Management. It also highlights the maturity of Crypto.com’s business continuity and disaster preparedness. It also points to the assessment that the company has implemented effective business continuity plans and processes to minimize business interruptions and to maintain critical operations at an acceptable level of service to users in the event of disruptive incidents.
“ISO 22301 demonstrates that business resilience is embedded into Crypto.com’s operations,” said Jason Lau, Chief Information Security Officer at Crypto.com. “Resilience is an important part of our business operations to ensure that we react and adapt to changing circumstances in a systematic way.”
ISO 22301 is a reputable standard in the financial industry and with the addition of ISO 22301, Crypto.com further strengthens its governance controls with ISO 27001, ISO 27701, Service Organization Control (SOC) 2, the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS Level 1) and achieves the highest maturity levels for the respective NIST Cybersecurity and Privacy frameworks (was rated “Adaptive”- Tier4).
Crypto.com was assessed across 10 core functions to determine our ability to Avoid, Resist, React, and Recover from a business interruption event. Business resiliency includes people, processes, and technology working together to reduce the likelihood and duration of an interruption.
“Business resilience is top of mind for management,” said Kris Marszalek, Co-Founder and CEO of Crypto.com. “A well-established business continuity management system demonstrates how our organization is able to react, respond and recover. Getting independently assessed and certified is an important milestone for our company, as we continue to build trust with our customers and partners during our global expansion.”
