The international hospital network Hospiten has obtained ISO/IEC 27001 certification, the international standard of reference in information security management, which endorses the company's commitment to data protection, confidentiality, information integrity and the continuity of its services.

The ISO 27001 certification certifies that the company manages information security in accordance with the most demanding international standards. It is not just a question of technology, but of a comprehensive commitment to data protection, business continuity and the trust of patients, customers and partners.

From a strategic and branding point of view, ISO 27001 reinforces corporate reputation, positions the organization as a reliable and responsible entity, and objectively demonstrates compliance with good practices in cybersecurity and information protection. It is a clear competitive advantage over other non-certified organizations, especially in such sensitive sectors as healthcare.

Likewise, certification conveys transparency, professionalism and risk control, facilitates regulatory compliance (RGPD, NIS2, ENS, among others) and generates confidence in markets, clients and institutions, supporting both international growth and participation in agreements and tenders where security is a key requirement. This certification not only protects information: it protects the brand, trust and sustainability of the business.

ISO 27001, which validates the use of advanced technical measures, also corroborates the existence of processes, controls and an organizational culture focused on security, transparency and continuous improvement. In an increasingly digital environment and with greater cyber risks, this certification reinforces trust and consolidates Hospiten as a reliable, responsible entity that is prepared to face current and future challenges.

According to Jochen Grüning, Director of Systems and Digital Transformation at Hospiten: "In the healthcare field, information security is a key element in guaranteeing patient confidence and quality of care. The ISO 27001 certification accredits that we rigorously protect clinical information and personal data, ensuring its confidentiality, integrity and availability, and reinforcing our capacity to offer secure and continuous care".

The certification has been awarded by OCA Global, an independent international certification, inspection and testing entity, which has verified compliance with the requirements established by the ISO/IEC 27001 standard in Hospiten's management systems. OCA Global points out that "obtaining this certification reflects the organization's high level of maturity in information security management, as well as its ongoing commitment to improvement and data protection in a particularly sensitive environment such as healthcare".

With this milestone, Hospiten strengthens its reputation, differentiating itself as an organization committed to excellence, regulatory compliance and information protection, especially in the healthcare sector where security and confidentiality are essential.
