Pandektes receives ISO 27001:2022 certification

We are proud to announce that Pandektes has been awarded the ISO 27001:2022 certification — one of the most widely recognized and respected standards for information security management. The certificate underscores our commitment to protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data on behalf of our customers. In a field as sensitive as law, where privileged information is the cornerstone of trust, nothing less than world-class security measures will suffice.

Here‘s how the ISO 27001 uniquely allows us to support lawyers and legal professionals.

What an ISO 27001 Certification Entails

ISO 27001 is an international standard outlining how an organization should manage information security.

Based on a rigorous external audit, we are certified to have policies and processes in place that ensures best-in-class security for all the data we handle. These policies and processes include among other things:

• That access to sensitive data is restricted to only those who need it, following the principle of least privileged

• Extensive security training of all employees

• A well-defined and rehearsed incident response plan

• A risk-based approach to information security that is under continuous review

• Consistent review and handling of vulnerabilities, both in code and organisationally

Why did we choose to do an ISO 27001-certification?

So far, legal research has primarily been defined by giving lawyers access to a database of public data. However, with the advent of modern AI in the form of LLMs, the future of legal research tools also involves users’ own and sensitive documents.

We have built the Pandektes platform with security in mind from day one. It was always clear that in order to be the best-in-class legal research tool, security would be paramount. This means that even before getting the certificate, we have been handling sensitive information for an array of customers, ranging from law firms to public institutions, unions and in-house legal departments.

Choosing to get the certificate was a logical next step. It is an insurance for us and our customers that our processes are indeed comprehensive towards ensuring security.

The Path Ahead

Achieving ISO 27001 certification is both an end and a beginning. At Pandektes, we will continuously update and refine our security protocols to address new threats and challenges. Being a secure and trustworthy platform requires continuous improvement and adaptation, which is the ultimate commitment we have made.

We remain committed to forging a culture of security—one that empowers legal professionals to do their work confidently, knowing that their data is safeguarded under a robust information security framework.
