What is ISO?
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, global organization of 160+ national standards bodies that measure levels of excellence for products, services, systems, and procedures.
Dropbox has certified its data centers, systems, applications, people, and processes through a series of audits by an independent third-party, Netherlands-based EY CertifyPoint.
Due diligence for security, privacy and business continuity
It’s vital to assess your current infrastructure controls against objective security, privacy/data protection, and business continuity standards. You may need to adopt new solutions according to best practices and ISO standards.
ISO 27001 (Information Security Management)

Why ISO certification is critical for business continuity
For successful business continuity, it’s important that you have advanced planning measures in place in the event of an emergency, such as a natural disaster, business crisis, pandemic, workplace violence, or any potential event that could create unexpected upheaval.
Having an ISO certification helps your business be well prepared so that the security, privacy, and data protection of your business are maintained—no matter what happens.
